Re: Stonewall Writing Group

Hey there!

It really depends what kind of writing you're talking. We have the Authors of Stonewall Times group which writes articles for our monthly publication, the Stonewall Times, which we're currently recruiting for. Then there's the Stonewall Role Players group which focuses more on realtime RP. If you're looking to get something like that up and running on a regular basis, I'd love to help you anyway I can.

All of my GLBTQ reading that I enjoy is on the nifty archives website... There are some good stories out there if you can wade through all of the crappy purely sexual stories...

Yeah, and I just read Attitude for the articles... :ohmy: :P


Oh hush you! I was serious, I'm very picky when it comes to what I read. :-P

I'm not a big reader, in fact I've still not managed to finish a real "book" in my adult life, which is a bit shameful. But you should all be reading Khaos Komix because it's GBLT goodness :)

I'm a hopeless romantic who is more interested in the characters and their story than anything else, and not opposed to love scenes so long as they are tastefully written.

I will go on to say also that my favorite Fanatsy series of all time (well right now) is The Sword of Truth series by Terry Goodkind. I own the entire series of books and will occasionally read them again. I have some of the Wheel of Time audiobooks, that's a good series it was just getting too pricey to keep up with since I don't have tons of time to listen to them anymore.

Hello Stonewallers! I was wondering if there was any interest in a writer/rp group within Stonewall. I'd be happy to lead the organizational efforts. Let me know in-game @johnniehero or reply on here and let's get this started!

Fave novels? I'd love some recommendations!

March 18 2012
For a word about my tastes:

My favorite fantasy series is probably the Game of Thrones series (fan long before the rather good tv series).

Favorite sci-fi.. probably Dune.

Possibly the only good queer fantasy or sci-fi novel I have read:
Dreamer: A Novel Of the Silent Empire, by Stephen Harper (not the Canadian Prime Minister) which I heartily recommend, though the two sequels that I read disappointed me. By the way, it's available for $0.99 on kindle!

I also like "literature" - the first example that comes to my head is the Life of Pi.. an awesome book by (Canadian) author Yan Martel.

Thanks in advance for your input!

Yupp Soren got me, my lie was being a detective.

I think Soren lie was about having the baby, wild guess based on probability.

Angel, your lie was about the Amnesia. Wild guess again.

The Stonewall Times needs you!

The Stonewall Times needs you!

After a short hiatus, the Stonewall Times is returning, and we need a strong team of writers and creative people to help make it an essential monthly read for Stonewall Fleet (STO), the House of Nagh reD (STO), and Knights/Lords/Soldiers of Stonewall (TOR).

Rather than rely on contributors each month, we'd like to appoint a number of staff writers with responsibility for producing regular content. Each staff writer will have control over a section of the monthly magazine, and will be able to bring their own creative ideas to it.

Please see the list of open positions in the following post.

If you'd like to apply for a position, please send an email to times@stonewallfleet.com or times@knightsofstonewall.com, or send me a message via the websites. Please include a short summary of the skills and experience that you think will make you a good fit for the position.

You may apply for as many of the positions as you like.

What will you get out of it? We can't pay you... but writing for the Times is a good way to support the guilds and your fellow members, and for anybody interested in a career in writing it will enable you to build up a valuable portfolio of experience and published work.

The deadline for applications is the end of Saturday March 31, 2012.

I look forward to working with you!
