Author's Notes 6
Ha! I did it! Ten in one day! And, that's with a whole bunch of distractions, too! It's time for bed soon, and I seriously need a bath, but I did it! And I got to number thirty, too. That's a fun accomplishment. Anyway, I digress, for anyone who actually reads these, here's my notes.
Notes for PiT 026: Along with My Home
I was mostly inspired by the Redwall cartoon where Matthias' family gets killed and his town ransacked. That was only in the animated series though. Another reference was from Dragon Champion by E. E. Knight, where Maddy was hidden in a wine barrel, just like Hibea.
Notes for PiT 027: The Cleansing of Darkness
This is what happens when we let me listen to Megadeth's Countdown to Extinction too much. Takkeet's age is a personal reference to one of the symbols I draw when mad (the Infinity sign), and the girl's name is a reference to the Latin word for 'quiet'- tacit (Note that in old Latin pronunciations, c's are always hard, and i's are always pronounced like a long 'e'. That's why her name is Takkeet- it sounds like tacit with the old Latin pronunciation.)
Notes for PiT 028: Birth of a God
Another fun case where I was just starting up a story.
Notes for PiT 029: The Last Soldier's Grim Fate
Funny enough, I was thinking of Ben Ten when I starting to talk about aliens, but none of that actually got incorporated into the story. Just as well, I suppose- I mean, do we really need Shadow fighting Vilgax?
Notes for PiT 030: Isolation and Solitude
This was really inspired by a place I went on vacation this summer, someplace in Mammoth Caves National Park in Kentucky. Don't ask me why- I'm not really sure…
