Hi, some of you might remember me (Ophelia!) from when I first joined years ago.

I'm Jordan Elizabeth. I write. Even when I try to avoid writing, I write. Mostly poetry and short stories (and newsletters for work). I publish some of them on my blog http://jordannewhouse.wordpress.com

I got this idea for a Fantasy Novel, so I decided to come back here and see if I could be motivated to actually build the world and write the story :)

I don't have internet access at home, and I try not to be distracted at work...so I don't know how active I'll be.

All resemblance to persons, people, friends, relatives, quotes, cultures, artificial intelligences, inside jokes, pets, unclaimed personalities, sentient objects, extra-terrestrials, inter-terrestrials, and draperies living, dead, undead, or comatose in any of my work are purely coincidental, incidental, circumstantial, inadvertent, unplanned, unforeseen, and unintentional. There's seriously no way I was referring to you. Honest.

The story so far:
Birthright: Eleventh chapter pending. 28280 words.
Heritage: First chapter drafted.
Legacy: Character and plot development stage.

The idea has to do with a world in which sight is abnormal. Over the generations, peoples' literal sight has degenerated and only a few people are not blind. These "seers" therefore struggle to live normal lives amid the blind. Some react by essentially becoming blind while others refuse to see their sight as a disability.

I'm beginning to play with world building... What would a world built by blind people look like to a seer?

:cool:

Welcome back! :)

That sounds like a very interesting premise!
