Chord’s World Tour – Cheshire (part 2)

June 23, 2019June 23, 2019 ~ Y.F. Desince, II ~ Leave a comment

Cheshire is my favorite of the human kingdoms to visit. It just might be my favorite kingdom to visit period. The primary reason for that is that I'm not shot at as I'm approaching. Even without my reputation preceding me - and you can take that anyway you desire - Cheshirans while cautious tend to … Continue reading Chord’s World Tour – Cheshire (part 2)

May 6, 2019 ~ Y.F. Desince, II ~ Leave a comment

Writing evil is not supposed to be pretty. There's a difference between Thanos in the Avengers movies, and say the Red Skull, Crossbones, or even Ultron. The latter three were bad guys. Doing bad guy things. While Thanos could be argued to be included in that mess, what sets him apart is his willingness to … Continue reading Writing Evil

The Darkness stirs…

May 1, 2019May 1, 2019 ~ Y.F. Desince, II ~ Leave a comment

One of my favorite things about my Darkness Rising setting is the actual Darkness. Something stirs beneath the world Duir'Aion, and if it should rise, it could very well be the end of the world. As a writer, creator of worlds, I like having this over arcing theme over all of my novels and short … Continue reading The Darkness stirs…

Designing Divinity (part 1 of 2)

April 17, 2019April 17, 2019 ~ Y.F. Desince, II ~ Leave a comment

Magic is one of the three primal forces of the universe. The other two being life and death. Every wizard taps into a font of magic, learning how to unlock the mysteries of such power.
