Are You Writing Serious Fantasy?

[Naaramare]

Anybody want to share favorite monsters?

Why, certainly. I'm partial to dragons, ki-rin and phoenixes. Dragons, well . . .that's always obvious, isn't it? :: points to her decorated bedroom:: Ahem. ^^ They're big, pretty and no one messes with them.

Phoenixes: partly because of the spiritual theme in the rebirth, and partly just because they've become irremovably linked to the heroine of my monster ( er . . .novel, right, not monster). Thus, they've become part of my ideals.

Ki-rin, because I've always liked unicorns, but the Western ones are insipid, and far too concerned with young girls' sex lives.
