reason: die))
17. Tipps for the Future III
V. Seperate from all the standards.
VI.Invent new cinds of characters.
VII.Make the characters deep. Each one!
VIII.Make the reader think he would walk throught a
world, where he can take every diversion into a place
you haven‘t wrote about yet and find something there.
IX.Make long storys without a real ending (give each
chapter a „hightlight“ otherwise it will get borring)
X. Make the fights reallistic. (One man can defeat many
enemys, but shure not more than two dozen)
XI.Describe also the ugly things.
18. Tipps for the Future IV
-The Aim
You see it‘s much more like in the real world, much
more reallistic. But why? It‘s a fantasy-book. Fantasy
lifes from unreallism! Thats right and I don‘t want
realistic fantasy. But let‘s go at the beginning: You
read fantasy actually, because you wish something
so interresting could happen to you (Of course
without all the hurt and victims etc.). And if the
magic is there, but nobudy believes in magic, it could
be our world, so maybe you are the hero you wish to
be. Once you will find the magic and be the big hero!
