...and some of you may not. I'll start out by saying Hello, I'm Sir Apeslugger AKA Apeslugger or Cade on the Dark side. ;)
I decided to register here after meeting some of the people from here and wanted to see exactly what goes on. I may not be as active as I'd like until after the Holidays but I'll try to up with things and be as active as time allows.
:D
Any things that I should know about before we get started? ;)

Apeslugger! It is now my turn to offer you your choice of a handshake or a handshake. * grins and shakes hand * Welcome aboard! Even if you don't write fantasy or anything, this is the most active forum generally speaking, so it's cool to check it out.

So do you ever write fantasy?

Apeslugger...your name rings a bell. I think I've seen several posts on the forum where I don't post but often go to...to stalk. ;) Welcome to the Fantasy Forums!

I don't know. I've written a short story (pending review and editing) but I'm not sure if it qualifies as sci-fi or fantasy. :/

I was hoping that my location would get a chuckle. :D
I like Frank Peretti, Alton Gansky, Some Ted Dekker, as well as others.

Yeah I figured I'd join for two reasons. 1:It's the most active. and 2:There's so many people coming on sci-fi from here that I decided I'd shake it up a little. ;)

Welcome to HWFF, Apeslugger! :D When I first saw your name, I thought it said "apple slugger" until I read it more closely. :roll: :P

Thankyou for your confidence in me and my pies, Lady Rwebhu. ;) xD I haven't tried filling my pies with anything that is likely to explode... yet. ;)
They usually contain apples, which is most safe. ^_^

*hands Apeslugger a piece of hot apple pie with icecream ;) *

Hello, good sir Apeslugger. That's a wildly imaginative name.

What types of music do you like? How long have you been writing?

Pies are the least of your concerns in my opinion. We have certain people (wolfs, actually) who have eaten lightsabers. Oh, and if you're ever in doubt about the dangerous contents of a pie, please consult me. Here's my card:

Gandalf the Gray: Expert on fireworks and explosives

What Waits in Shadow (fantasy short story--editing)

And too many half-started ideas to count

My music preference range from classical to artists like Red and Thousand Foot Krutch. I've only really started writing and before that I drew my Ideas, and to my surprise, a few of my characters had a likeness that I didn't know about until AFTER I'd drawn them and/or created their story/background.

Eat lightsabers, huh? Guess I'll have to get my Electric Arm Canon and Laser Cross Bow. :D Like the Lord of the Ring ref. :cool: I'll be sure to consult.

Be wary of your habits, for they become your character. Pray over your character; strive to mold it to the image of Christ, because your character will shape your destiny.

Ideas can germinate from the smallest seeds. Collect those seeds, and let them grow in the back of your mind. You may be surprised by what finally blooms.

When God takes something from your grasp, he's not punishing you. Instead, He’s opening your hands to receive something better. The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.
