# About me
My soul is as free as the wind
And like wind it is gentle and fierce
None shall ever grasp it
None shall ever hold it down
I have recently completed the labourious task of adapting Twilight Princess. Now comes revisions and the road to official publication! The real battle begins ^_^
Personal Quote: There is no failure with an attempt, only failure with none at all.

I have deeply enjoyed your novel of Twilight Princess. I've always been fascinated with mythologies and grew up reading and practically studied J.R.R. Tolkien. Lately, I've been reminiscing on the mythology of the Legend of Zelda and have intriguingly been looking over the fan fiction novelizations. As I came across your Twilight Princess, to say that I was intrigued would be an understatement. I just wanted to say that your work is brilliant!! You've done fantastic job in capturing the story in explicit detail and yet remaining true to the game and legacy of the Legend of Zelda. I thoroughly enjoyed all of it! Once I started reading, I couldn't put it down. It's awesome!
I've been working on a novel, not fan fiction, of a mythology of my own and am often discouraged over how little of time I have to spend with it over balancing its time with other projects and affairs of life. It's of a very broad and unique nature in a similar manner as "The Silmarillion", and covering the explicit details are often a struggle. I wanted to say that reading your work and observing your techniques was very encouraging.Β
Sincerely,
A Fan
p.s. If you ever have the time, I'm posting parts of my novel of what I've written thus far, and I'd really appreciate your input, thoughts, etc. Title: The Reckoning of Olote

I freaking LOVE your Twilight Princess book! I yearn to be able to write so perfectly and descriptively, but I don't know where to start.... Any tips to help me write betters books? Thanks! *begins to read the TP book for the 5th time*

I cannot thank you enough for those kind words. Twilight princess was an absolute labour of love and I'm so happy the way it turned out. That people are still finding and reading and rereading it to this day, years after I completed it is such an honour and I'm am blessed that it is standing the test of time.
My only advice is keep reading more books, by different authors. You naturally cling to certain styles of writing and you kind of mine what styles you like from different authors until you find your own voice. For the down and gritty, I'd say that when I write, I remember all the senses. Imagine everything has all six senses and tell us what you will. Tell us that the grass looked so beautiful and majestic that morning the way their bristles stood upright as if they were breathing in the life of the bright golden sun along with you.
π hope that helps and thank you so much for the kind words.

I sorry - I had a really early morning today, and I won't be getting to the next chapter this evening. I know, I know! School's starting to stress me out though, and if there's one thing I need it's a good night's rest. I'll try to read a chapter or two during the day tomorrow to make up for the couple I've missed. Sorry!
Secretly, I'm just giving you some extra time to get to those replies you've been letting stack up. Lol. Just kidding.

Haha, next week! Next week I'm not busy!! ^_^Β

I'm really sad... I wanted to read a chapter every day, but now I'm a week behind. Sorry. School is picking up a lot faster than usual, and I'm already struggling to keep up (and it's only week 3). I'll read again when I can, but it might be a month or more. Again, really sorry for the disappointment. But on the bright side, now you get all the anticipation of when you'll see another comment pop up in your inbox!

I have just finished reading your Twilight Princess novelization, but I never wanted it to end.Β Thank you for writing it!
π: 0 β©: 1
Aw, thank you!!! I feel like it took so long to write it because I, too, never wanted it to end. I got so much joy from writing it, and I'm so happy that it continues to make readers happy and that it can entertain them. So, thank YOU for reading it and taking the time to leave me a comment. It's wonderful knowing that one is appreciated, but even more so that one's work is appreciated.
Have a wonderful week, my dear.

Well, with the release of your final ending, I read all the pairing endings back-to-back. Here are my thoughts...
Ilia/Link: Cute and simplistic. I have the feeling this was the easiest to write. Would I be correct?
Midna/Link: Man, the emotional buildup is intense and the way it ends is a mix of emotions; sad, happy, and at times bittersweet. (P.S. There's a bit of a spelling error that goes "Zelda wordlessly at the black, lifeless slab of stone before her". What exactly did Zelda do? A verb before or after "wordlessly" would help)
Zelda/Link: This is the longest one yet and my personal favorite of the three. You can chalk it up to my ZeLink-shipping-mind if you want, but this felt like it had the most thought and effort put into it. You feel the emotions both Link and Zelda go through and you really start appreciating Zelda as a character with how she interacts and takes situations.
So, there you have it. The ZeLink ending is my personal favorite. The Ilia/Link and Midna/Link were also good, but you saved your best for last here. Bravo, Miss Kaye. Bravo.

Alright. I finished up my review. I've fine tuned it to the best of my extent, addressed every point you suggested in the contest rules, I feel I did a very good job.
Here it is: [link]

Okay, dumb question time. I noticed that in your table of contents for the TP novel you have the names of the chapters spelled out instead of just the word 'link' for links to the writing. How could I go about doing this?
π: 0 β©: 1
Not a dumb question. I only knew how to do it from an html course I took in high school. π: 0 β©: 1
Write out:
< /a>
The ONLY space you keep is the one between the "a" and "h"
Between the quotes paste the link.
Between these: ">" "<" write out what you want to appear as text for your link.
Hope this helps! ^_^
Thanks so much!!

You're welcome. A great pic to use for reference for my novel, that's for sure! Thank for uploading it.
On another note, I looked at the link in your sig. I noticed the posts were from 2 years ago and only took a minute to scan through. Did you get your TL project going?
π: 0 β©: 1
Yes, I'm still working with it. Ordon with objects and characters are almost ready, some scripts left.
