Ebooks on the Bards Corner, AXIP
and Ebooks on
the Merpups Academy of Bards - for, well... ebooks!
Some great fan fiction sites:
Maison
de Kamouraskan - Roughly translated as Kamouraskan's House of Ill
Repute, and very aptly so. Quake in fear as you gaze on all those Xippies,
Lunacy reviews and - GASP!!! The Joining!!!
Temora:
Bard of Dubious Talent - Hey, she picked the name! And of course it's
packed with little gems, all sauteed in Temora sauce - picante, zesty,
meaty or light and lemony. Take your pick.
Verrath's Book Of Tales - The abode
of the Germ. Hilfe, hilfe, meine schwester ist eine bratkartofeln. Enter
at your peril. There is no known antidote, once the Germ gets you.
My Soul's Hideaway - Not prolific
by any means, and not as widely known as she should be, but Chantal writes
poignant and emotional short stories.
Amnesia
Time/Bard Wars - Don't let the misery of life get you down! Feeling
puffy, irritable and bloated?? You need forgetfulness! Is the sheer horror
of your every waking moment starting to get to you? You need Jay and Silent
Dee! (Site now dead - internet archive link)
The Time Waster
- Vivian Darkbloom is one of my favourite bards of the Xenaverse. From
the biting satire of "From Hair To Eternity" to the humour of
the "White Trash" series, to consumate emotional pieces like
"Venezia" and "A Narcoleptics Guide To Romance", this
writer has talent, ability and range. I am so jealous.
The Living Library
- My other absolute favourite bard, Nene Adams. Very prolific, extremely
talented; Nene was the person who really switched me onto ubers with her
"Ressurection And Rest". Now, I regularly haunt her 'Chamber
of Horrors' section, and her Bardwynna tales.
The Bardic Circle
- Homepage of the BC writers' list and a writer's resource site, worth
checking for the comprehensive writer's resources and tools, and if you
can get on the list, it's a great way to improve your skills as a writer
or beta.
