Gotta remember that physics work differently underwater ;)
That reminds me of a time when I wrote a short role-playing story about one of my NWN characters. After writing my "masterpiece", I realized that I didn't take into account that it was winter time on the server. There was no snow on the ground, no rivers frozen over in my tale... live and learn, I guess.  :P

WiZaRDuSS, I find that when I write from a character's perspective, you have to really see the world through their eyes. In fact, sometimes my mind lives inside the character while I write and I actually feel a bit emotionally drained depending on what they're going through.

That said, I'm still interested in the story... though I wish there was a little more character development.

As always, any thoughts on it are welcome, I write mainly for the readers, not for myself(not that much anyway).

I don't know what you mean exactly by those words. Are you saying that you're writing because some of us are expecting more chapters? I hope you'd be a little more selfish and write because you really want to, not because of some perceived obligation. Otherwise, what's the point? It's just your comment above coupled with forgetting about her being underwater makes me wonder.

I was a bit caught up in the moment, which is why I forgot about the fact that you can't run underwater :P
It's fixed now though :)

And what I meant with that I write mainly for the readers, was that I do like to write the story, but that I'm pretty bent on having other people read it, else it'd feel like my effort had gone to waste.

Let me know what you think of the story so far, and if anyone is still interested..
Alec twittered about your blog/story and posted about it on Facebook about 1-2 weeks ago, so you should have a bit more readers now, do you? ;)

Not sure, don't know where I can see who wrote anything, plus I turned off comments a few days ago, since all I got was spam..

If anyone is still interested, I've written a new chapter after a long time.

And from now on I won't be updating http://wizarduss.blog.com anymore, but I will place my story at: http://www.relished-designs.nl/migna

Just comment on it on the new site if you want to let me know anything about it, I'm not as active here as I used to be.. obviously..
