Hey everyone

[Moonsilver]

Hey, I just wanted to introduce myself here. Long time lurker and Sanderfan, I've finally decided to create an account so I can get involved in the writing group. 

I go by Moon online. I'm a 30-something scifi/fantasy geek that found Brandon's books when The Final Empire was published back when I was in college. I live in southern Texas with my wife and 3 cats, and can be found hiking or fishing or grilling when I'm not stuck behind the computer. Nice to meet you all, I look forward to seeing y'all around.

Hi Moonsilver, welcome to the shard!

And way to go getting ahead of all of those questions! I'll look forward to reading more from you!

Thanks for the welcome, Marukka, nice to meet you. Are you into arcanepunk? That's the genre of the novel I'm currently working on.

Can't say that I am since this is the first time I hear of that genre. 

But I don't consider one book better than another if just the genres differ, and all in all I tend to follow more the author than any peticular genre. I mean I read (and pretty much liked) every book by Sanderson I could get my hands on, and he has written stories in many genres. So, I guess I just wanted ho say I'll give it a try as long as it is not one of those storming Twilight-like books.

Nope, no angsty teen romance here, lol.

Arcanepunk is similar to Cyberpunk, except that it explores the advantages and disadvantages of magic, as well as science, and how they often relate to and influence each other. It still has many of the other "punk" elements, like metropolitan cities, the cost of progress, human augmentation, how humans treat nonhumans, what does it mean to be human,  advanced science and technology.

Sounds interresting! I'm looking forward to giving it a try!
