The Bards of Luthiel discussion

Tell us something about yourself!

Hi,
Thank you so much for the invite…I love the sacred credo. My name is Elyse Draper and I’m an author; actually more of a habitual reader in need of an outlet. I’ve just been published in “Voices of Autism”; by the non-profit organization The Healing Project…buying this book would definitely count as a random act of kindness. ~wink, wink, nudge, nudge ~
I’m also in the process of finding representation for my new YA Fantasy/Paranormal novel “Free Will”, you can check out the first two chapters on my profile.

"May your feet ever walk in the light of two suns; may the moonshadow never fall on you."

Hey! I'm Jen. I read Luthiel's Song a while back and really loved it. It's great to see what Ron's put together here with Rob's help. Very creative ;). Great to meet everyone!

I've got to thank Ron for inviting me! It's wonderful to see everyone here!

Wow! Lots of new Bards! It is most honorable and admirable to be among so many highly respected people!

Well I'm new to the Bards as well. But I'll do my best to honorably and admirably spread the word. Ron, my hat's off to you. A great group and a worthy cause.

Just finished Luthiel's Song. Kept me up until 3 AM!

Hey, thanks for the invite. I haven't actually read Luthiel's song. HHHHHHHHHHHHH! I know, Iknow. I'm puttting it on my to read list. I've been looking for a good fantasy series now that I'm done being disappointed with JK Rawling's ending. It sounds right up my alley. Thanks.
Peace and Love.

Hi and thanks for the invite.

I am a Celtic Pagan-Druid I guess if I have to categorize myself but also incorporate some Native American spiritual beliefs in the mixture.
I get very upset about how some people in some religious persuasions are sooooo narrow and restrictive. A loving deity could not be that harsh and exclusive.

There is a little verse by Houseman that I love and it seems so appropriate: I may not quote it perfectly but the gist of it goes:

"He drew a circle to shut me out,
Infidel, heretic, one to flout.
But Love and I had the wit to win
For we drew a circle that took him in."

I am a reader, a writer, a seeker and a fascinated observer of the world, the universe and all they hold. Anything that encourages us to think, to dream, to go inside and find our own philosophy and spirituality is good! Luthiel or Tolkein or the words of some of the ancient bards and druids all do this. Never stop learning and never stop loving; those are the only tenets I hold as absolute.

Thank you for inviting me, but I'm sort of confused. Does someone care to explain to me what this group is and wha tit does? Thank you.

Very Nice, Wind Dancer. Thank you, I find your honesty and positive energy couragous and reassuring. I've read that verse before. What is that from by Houseman? Again, very nicely put, thanks for that.
Peace and Love.

Hello I'm Gabriel and I love to read, write songs, and dance. I was really taken in by Luthiel and I'm proud to be part of this group.

Just wanted to say I also agree with Wind Dancer. Lovely poem!

Hey I'm new too! Glad to be a bard and for the fair Luthiel it is more a gift than a service.

I enjoy reading of course. But SCA and roleplaying are other passions as well.

Hey. I'm new. And ahh. I gotta read this book. :)

wish there was something like this for eragon fans.

roleplaying. ahh. takes me back to the days of neopet roleplaying. lol

Haven't read the book, but after getting the invite....visited the site and trusty ol'Amazon! Am itchin' to lay my hands on the book now!

All hail the Bards of Luthiel!!

Wow! Very cool! Glad to be with you guys and gals!! If you haven't read Luthiel's Song yet, do so soon! I just finished it and loved it!

Great to be with you guys! What can I say, I love fantasy books!

Hey the author came to my school!

Me? I like cons, MMOs, and good books.
