the hyperbole is a beauty...for we are then allowed to say a little more than the truth...and language is more efficient when it goes beyond reality than when it stops short of it.

Fernhold- welcome! MN is AWESOME! Also I'd love to have more MN discussion - those were powerful books for me, but i hardly e'er check that forum due to not enough conversation there.
"People without hope not only don't write novels, but what is more to the point, they don't read them.
They don't take long looks at anything, because they lack the courage.
The way to despair is to refuse to have any kind of experience, and the novel, of course, is a way to have experience."

"In spite of much that militates against quietness there are people who still read books. They are the people who keep me going."

I liked that, now waiting eagerly to see reaction.
And certainly any sane person who's read the Chronicles knows Lord Foul has a lot of hidden meanings and implications in his words. Actually, many people not even remotely sane know that - even I do.
Looks like I've found one - if the place mentioned above is for newbs - then what is the place for those out of being newbs? Now I'd better stop printing out my guesses...

I'm reading your post. Hmmm... Groveling...kneeling...Chronicles. Newbs. Hm. Yes. That'll do. Welcome!
So glad to have you. You seem like you have a lot of spunk and witty energy. We need that! Fresh blood. Splattering. All over the walls.
Love,
Foul

The next one will be in 3 years -- 2014 -- assuming SRD sticks to his schedule and TLD comes out in 2013. That way we can get him to sign our books. (We got too excited when Fatal Revenant came out and jumped the gun, and had E-fest in the same year as publication -- *before* Fatal Revenant came out. That's why there were four years between this year's fest and the last one.)
Anyway -- welcome to all the noobs I've missed.
