...Dain, not to be confused to Dain Bornhald the White Cloak. Dain happens to be my own name as well.

I just finished the 11th book two days ago and managed to shed a tear that there would be no more books for some time. Anyway I loved each and every book, including the New Spring Novel (which I read between book 10 and 11). I don't know if it is the last several months talking or if the Wheel of Time series is actually my favorite series of books ever.

So while I wait for the next book I've decided to write a little of my own, this would be the first time I've done actual writing. I'm more of a visual artist, and my grammatical skills are lacking. I've run my story ideas across my employers and they think they are pretty solid, so I'm going to go ahead and try starting with a short story. I'm sure Robert Jordan's style will be a big influence.

 

I look forward to talking to many of you about different aspects of the wheel of time and mysterious plot twists and what ifs.

Note: I followed the link on the last page of the book!

Welcome to DM!

Ah, thank you so much for all the wonderful replies. I'm heading to my parent's for the holidays at the end of the week so I'll be without reliable internet access. When I return home I'll be sure to look around more and find where I fit in.
