Because of the new writing project, Lithia, that I'm working on, I changed the banner of Xenithar's Lair.  I then changed the whole look of the website to correspond to the project, lots of reds and blues hehe.  I also fixed up the welcome page so it has a few more images, and I changed some BGs as well and updated the about page ever so slightly (my family is growing faster and faster lol)

I still have yet to add the info page about Lithia (I feel kinda bad because I said I would add it soon clear back in one of my other blog posts, so I apologize for that XP), but hopefully, with the semester over, I'll have more time to work on it.

I also hope to get Founders Part 1 on Lulu by the end of this month - there has been a manuscript problem besides the Sentients of Libera section I decided to exclude.  It puts statement of error right by the chapter headings where I used to have a table of contents index.  I need to go into Openoffice and see if I can fix it (grr so close!).

Anywho, happy holidays once again!

Indeed, I'm still alive, and this site is still alive.

The end of the semester has been a bit hectic, and I've been cramming some homework this past month.  Hopefully with the end of the semester this site and perhaps the Chronicles of Libera site will have a bit more activity.  Thanksgiving was very good, and it was fun to be with my brothers and sisters.  I have squeezed in some book work between homework and church, and the editing of Founders Part 1 is nearing completion and will probably be up on Lulu this December.

I also plan on getting a page up for the next installment of the Chronicles of Libera, Lithia.  I drew and inked a collage of characters from Lithia that I am currently coloring on the computer, and it will take some time before I get it up on Xenithar's Lair and the Lithia page.  But it will probably also take a while to decide what to put on the Lithia page anyways, so yeah....

I hope everyone had a gnarly Thanksgiving and ate lots of dinosaur meat.  Looking forward to the holidays!

I have added a page that has advice for writers.  I hope everyone here can find it useful!

Writing Advice

For a very long time I have had two stories sitting in my desktop: Linnaie's Mask and Cry of the Lupogryph, both of which were never published in a hard book form.  Instead of letting them sit and rot, I decided that I would work on them as a side project and combine them under one volume, hopefully to be published on Lulu.
