Thanks for the encouragement. It means alot to me. I know it could be better but I am still proud of it. I would rewrite it one more time, but honestly I’m thinking it’s time to move on. But, you never know. Good luck with your story and remember–never give up.

Hang in there you have at least did the first step , gettting your baby out there in the world . Some can’t even say that . Just like
one pretty girl is not attractive to another
man doesnt mean she’s not pretty . Just keep
sending it out and it will find a home. I’m in the same boat getting ready to send out my
novella been working on for a year , it’s almost
daunting the idea of maybe it taking 40 times
before someone picks it up , but I guess that’s
just the biz.

P.s I read part of the story and the writing seemed intresting , I think you just have to
relize your submitting in a very competive genre , good luck to you .

I wrote this late one night when I was feeling a little blue. I’m going to clean it up and make it a little more professional looking and I hope anyone who wants to will feel free to add to it.

Comment on Passage to Elladar by jwjohnson

As soon as I can get a publisher to buy it. In my book it is the name of a place. It is actually a short form of El Land Dar. Kind of a play on words and may not even end up as the title. Depends on the editor.

Keep going with your writing. It’s better to have a dream and who knows where it will take you. The sky is the limit.

Comment on Passage to Elladar by Elladar

WOW I didnt know i was on one of your books! Thats my Nickname since i can remember I use to write short stories… and guess what? Ive wrote “Elladar`s Chronicles” (unfortunately it is in spanish) thats funny, its about an elven race ive made up a few years ago.

I am quite interested in all this fantastic world… i love writing down short stories, i use to do that all the time since i was 13 years old (i am 23 now ). I use to play D&D too, but that was before ^^

I know elladar is a common name in Tolkien`s world, as you should. In fact it means “Eric”… that is the reason of my nickname… it IS my name after all hahahaha
Thanks for reading….
I would really like to read your book, when it would be available? ^^
By the way if you search in google most of the results could lead you to me

Your quite welcome. Wish I could do more. Honestly I just found it and what can I say. It’s huge! Just like all your other issues. Awesome art work as well. I recognize several of the authors in it and I’m sure it’s going to be great. Can’t wait to get started.

Hey J.W,

Thanks for the kind words – and for helping to get the word out on the free PDF! Traffic to our website has been the highest in our history over the past two weeks. I think our server is going to overheat.

Have you had a chance to read the issue? What did you think?

I sure would love to go. If it wasn’t in such a rough draft I would send it in now.
