Q: What is this Elushae thing you go on about sometimes?
A: Elushae is the fantasy world that Todd and I are creating, and have been creating for, um... five, six years now? Very often we feel more as though we're discovering and documenting it than creating it (don't worry, though; my grip on reality, while I may be unhappy about it, is rather firm, so I do know better).

Elushae gets mentioned in my journal for one of three reasons - world building notes, role playing notes, or stories.

Now, as to why I bring it up - I have an Elushae filter. I felt funny spamming my friends page with fantasy world-y stuff (perhaps because in many ways it's more personal to me than the personal junk you guys are usually subjected to. Heh).

So if you'd like to see any of the world building notes (things like the time line I'm currently working on), the role playing notes (which are usually just scatty kind of thoughts and plans on the games I run for Todd (he also runs games for me, for the record), or the stories, please let me know. I haven't actually posted much of the story kind of content, but I hope that will change in the future. There are so many stories to tell, and so many possible ways to tell them, that I tend to get kind of bogged down when I sit to write. I'm working actively on something now that I started a month or so ago, though, and I think it's coming along pretty well. I might post bits and pieces of it soon.

Um, well, *looks sheepish* you're not the only ones. That's pretty much how my worldbuilding process works, and a lot of my writing, for that matter.

Course, I don't know if my grip on reality is sufficient enough to make that reassuring. :)

And I would like very much to see your Elushae stuff, if that's okay.

*grins* We're more archaeologists than writers, I swear. All of us. And you're officially on the filter now. :)

*smiles* You're in there, and actually have been for a while. This is a sign that I don't make enough posts to it! For the record, all the strictly elushae posts I could find are in my memories under (biiiiig surprise) "elushae".

Oh, okay! I have been reading the posts- I just thought you were setting up the filter right now, and that would change.

Don't mind me, it's morning and my brain is a few hours from waking up. =)
