Message:I hope everyone enjoyed the last Harry Potter book.

Hello to everyone who sent in messages.

No, Amy, I've no new children's books coming out for the moment. How many of my books have you read?

Glad you enjoyed Irish College, Aoife. I remember Irish colleges from my own youth and even back then they were great fun.

Are you Amy's brother, Jordan?

Message:Cora: Thanks!! I'm working on the story right now. The Prolouge was very hard to write, but I'm getting used to writing fantasy now, and it's getting easier.

Message:Kristine: I've just read it through. I think it's brilliant - so far it's the best thing that you have done - incredibly mature and well-written. I'll try to put it on tonight.
By the way, yes, it is a good idea to always announce when you send a story. It makes life much easier for me.

Message:Cora: I sent in the Prolouge of my story. It's about 1,120 words. I know that some of the stories haven't been arriving lately, so I thought I'd better let you know that I sent it, just in case.

Message:Cora: Alright - I'll do that then. It's the first time I've written fantasy, so it's taking me a while, but I should be able to send it in by Tuesday if I'm lucky.

Name: Cora Harrison
Message:Kristine: I'm not sure - personally I think it breaks up the story and that a foreign-looking name adds to the atmosphere. I try to compromise by not using too much of them and by using anglicisations for the prinicpal characters. For instance, in MY LADY JUDGE, I use Malachy, Rory and Turlough, instead of their Gaelic spellings. However, I must confess that many of my friends in England complain about not being able to pronounce names like 'Nuala'.
Perhaps the best solution is to put a list at the back of the book.

Message:Cora: I've just thought - in my fantasy story I've used names from the characters that are from languages like Welsh and Slavonic - they're rather hard to pronounce. Should I include a note on pronunciation?

Message:Dear Aisling,
It takes brains, creativity and perseverance to write stories - these are qualities which are envied by people who lack them so I wouldn't worry. I've done what you asked, however.

Message:Kristine: Have you ever read Sabriel by Garth Nix? It's so inspiring. Everyone is getting a bit tired of Lord of the Rings type fantasy - there have been too many imitations, but this is something completely different.

Name: Kristine
Message:Cora: I've never written fantasy before, but I'll give it a shot. I've been reading up some fantasy books such as Eragon and Lord of the Rings for some ideas (that's what I generally do) and I think I may have something. I started the first chapter this evening, and I should have it ready for you soon.
