Where to go from here

To those who showed support for my initial post, I express sincere thanks. Now, all I have to do is come up with material! Easy, right?

Well, I have a few ideas that I have been running with recently, and I wanted to spell them out here, to give potential readers an idea of what to expect. Specifically, I have four projects in mind:

• The Kia Chronicles (working title), an experiment in bronze-age high fantasy - in other words, high fantasy with motifs drawn from bronze age cultures such as Assyrian, Egyptian, Canaanite, early Greek, etc., but reworked slightly to fit into a fantasy alternative Earth setting.

• Servants in Heaven, Kings in Hell (working title), a dystopian alternative history/science-fiction fusion showcasing a very different American continent than the one we know.

• Esperanto translations - either or both of the above I might translate into Esperanto at a later time, though I am going to concern myself with writing them in English first. What I would like to work on translating, however, are texts of classical philosophy which, to my knowledge, have not been rendered in Esperanto before. Mostly I have in mind the Stoic philosophers (Epictetus and the like), though some classical fiction (Illiad, Odyssey, Aeneid, etc.) would not be unthinkable either.

• Poetry - As cliche as it may be, I love writing poetry. Mostly rhymed quatrains just expressing thoughts or observations, but I enjoy using other more complex rhyme and meter schemes like the Sonnet. These will be posted here as well.

Now that I finish writing all this out, it seems slightly more daunting than I initially thought it would. But little by little, chapter by chapter, I intend on building up books for eventual print and publication. Hopefully, using this system first, I can get some feedback on the things I post so that I will be able to improve on them.

Thanks again, guys, and I appreciate your support so far!
