Greetings! You've found Ruatha's Fictionpress site! I write mostly
fantasy, with the occasional poem or serious essay thrown in. Feel free
to check it out.
Some professional authors who have greatly influenced my writing include:
Isaac Asimov, Tom Clancy, David Eddings, Robert Ludlum, Anne McCaffery, and David Weber
I'm
a great believer in return reviews. If you review my works, I WILL
review one of yours. Guarranteed :) I encourage everyone to do the
same. Also, for those who enjoy reading without ever commenting, bear
in mind that the reason most people post on Fictionpress is so others
can read their works -- which means that if it appears like no one is
reading it, they'll stop posting. So do yourselves a favor and drop a
quick note telling the author that you're interested in reading more.
Even something as simple as, "Thanks. I'm really enjoying this!" can be
useful. More useful yet is an explanation of WHY you are (or are NOT)
enjoying the story. Please, I urge you to help out: review!
About my stories:
I believe in writing realistic fiction, and as such, I try to make my
characters and plots as plausible as possible, thus keeping the
happenings of my stories within the clearly defined boundaries of their
own worlds.
About my poetry:I
got tired of my homepage looking cluttered, so I combined my poetry
into two categories: nature poems and non-nature poems. There are
multiple chaptes in each of these two collections, and each poem is
unrelated to the others surrounding it.
About my short stories and essays:
I
also recently combined my serious essays on politcal and social topics
into one multi-chapter entry. Beyond that are a handful of short
stories and my grammar review, which I encourage you to refer to if you
need technical help with your writing.
Thanks in advance for your reviews, and I hope you enjoy my works!
