Nell Walton liked the forum thread, What music do you listen to when writing?
It’s got to be something hard: Judas Priest, Megadeth, or someone similar.

    Nell Walton recommended Exile, Magus
    I like this - off to an excellent start!
    Exile, Magus
    A dwarven magus must enter a world he grew up only hearing of. As he strives to find his place and faces numerous dangers (and at least one too many gnomes) his naivete in life and love may bring more danger than any enemy ever could.

    Hey guys, I’m just simply asking for recommendations, get the word out more than what it is. My brain is exhausted and my brain is running out of glucose. Headaches are setting in and the emotional turmoil is turning me into a dinosaur. 

    So if you could bring a T-rex’s dreams come to life, that would really help me out. As always I’ll try and pay back the favor as long as I have time I’m running desperately short on the stuff.

      That’s a good point to bring up! Our purpose here is more as alpha readers than beta readers, for sure. I think every author and author’s friend would benefit from listening to the Writing Excuses podcast on alpha readers. And I’ll get in the habit of PMing authors if I want to share my thoughts. Thank you!

        It really depends on the approach of the commenter.  I’ve had plenty of critical comments on my projects, but I am not sure if that’s because of a persona the person was trying to exude or if they really disliked my book enough to rip it to pieces. I will say that I tend to leave both types of comments, because I like to help authors improve -- especially when they ask for feedback. In the past authors really appreciated my tactfully pointing out elements of their samples that could be approved up. Again, it is all in the intent of the commenter.  Scathing critique doesn’t really help writers only demoralizes them, and it certainly doesn’t help funding projects get more orders.
