On another note: I discovered a great internet radio on Winamp. It's a French broadcast station called Fresh Radio! They play a great mix that doesn't get boring :D

So I read a lot of fanfictions recently and 98% of them were made of crap. Also two books that left you wondering if the author thought their readers were dumb. I hate it how they feel the need to write paragraphs after paragraphs just explaining themselves and the character's motives. That always seems like the author halts the plot to have an intense look at the inner workings of their own damn story/universe. YES WE GOT IT, get on with the story. More showing, less telling.

That kinda also left me wondering how hard could it be? x_x And I found... it's pretty hard. Characterisation without explaining the character first can be a hard job, so no idea if I managed. And yes, ha-ha-ha :| I tried my hand at writing. It's original. But it has Vikings so there's that. Two, in fact. In a longboat, talking during the night before a raid. It's pretty short, and I feel slightly apprehensive about this for it is - truely - just utter nonsense xD

Tell me what you think, did I succeed?

3rd - Sep - 2009 - 01:05 am - Palnatoke
logeirr: (Go and boil your bottoms you sons of sil)
Palnatoke, or how I learned it (read about it) as Palnatoki. Or even Toke Palnasson. Either way, he "was a legendary Danish hero and chieftain of the island of Fyn. He raised Harald Bluetooth's son Sweyn Forkbeard and was a staunch supporter of the old pagan faith. He consequently convinced Sweyn to wage war on his own father, and Palnatoke slew Harald. The antagonism may also be based on the fact that Palnatoke was the grandson of the Geatish earl Jarl Ottar, who had been killed when Harald invaded Götaland.

Palnatoke founded the laws of the Jomsvikings. As a prototype of a hero he was succesfully righteous and esteemed. His death marked the decline of the Jomsvikings."

ö_ö Well well well.

If I mention I bought two books about Jomsvikings, it doesn't come much of a surprise, does it? I also bought one about the Templars. Anyways. Jomsvikings. Right. Lots of rilvary, making up with huge celebrations, raiding and MUCHO confusing kinship. Also: Vagn that little arrogant prat. Slayed 3 men before he reached the age of 10. Wtf. Also also: What kind of silly name is Bui? And Sigvaldi had the prettiest eyes of all men but an ugly nose? Don't make me giggle like a little school girl, goddamnit.
Plus! Thorkell the High (lol, Vinland Saga). OF COURSE THEY WERE ALL SUPER SMART AND STRONG. *nerd-mode*

Aside from that: Hello, I am lazy and not doing my work :(

I quoth Wikipedia:

Originally in the script, the relationship between the main characters (Tulio and Miguel) was supposed to have more of an implication, with each calling the other by pet names like "darling." This would have heightened the tension when Chel came between them and when they argued about splitting up. The producers and other executives had the pet names and other references cut, but in some versions of the subtitles (which are often taken from original scripts), the pet names can still be seen.

ANY QUESTIONS LEFT?
