He was passionate about designing and building buildings. Was Howard Roark (Ayn Rand’s The Fountainhead) passionate about office buildings? No.
passionate about living in houses, decorating houses, a nice patio for barbecuing, a foyer to die for, raising a family in a house, and enjoying the fruits of houses. Linda wants to hire people who are passionate about video games, but that seems like only hiring carpenters and plumbers who are passionate about “houses”–i.e. I was thinking today that I don’t agree with Linda “Brasse” Carlson‘s hiring strategy, as discussed in a previous post here about Trion’s livestream, where Linda and company were talking about getting hired at Trion. *Must* You Use The Product To Be Good At Making It? I was busy writing for like 10,000 hours. I’ve read a thousand works of fiction, but almost none in two decades. So don’t make fun of my Demonic language, because Neemoo is just a boy, and you might hurt his feelings.ĭo I even read novels anymore? No. Instead of using a profound Tolkien knowledge of linguistics to create Demonic, I channeled the syllables from an Atlantean spirit guide named Neemoo. I tortured, maimed, murdered, and enslaved a respectable number of characters who had perfectly nice lives before I came along.
They’re *so* much better from having been written all at once.Īll five novels have had 10-30 full re-writes or revisions over fifteen years. My novels aren’t pure genius, but they aren’t crap either. I have five books–a trilogy and two one-offs that expand on the most important characters and settings (Earth, Tartarus, Elysium, and Heaven). So I think I’ve written the same amount as Tolkien at this point. This week I’m working on my fantasy RPG, because last week I finished the final edit of my fourth novel, wrapping up eight months of working almost every minute of every day.
