For the sake of keeping track of things, and the need of more input from readers with my current project, I decided to create a Discussion Thread so I could answer to whatever I can concerning Garden of Sanctuary, Medusa Javelin, and Empyreal Paradox. I openly welcome any forms suggestions, criticisms, and comments to better my series so I can hopefully create something I am proud of.
Garden of Sanctuary - Complete Garden of Sanctuary - Oneshot Medusa Javelin - Complete Placidity - Chapter One Moderation - Chapter Two Sensibility - Chapter Three Temperance - Chapter Four Fortitude - Chapter Five Faith - Chapter Six Justice - Chapter Seven Hope - Chapter Eight Prudence - Chapter Nine Love - Chapter Ten Virtue - Epilogue Empyreal Paradox - In Progress Coalescent - Prologue Ascendancy - Chapter One Stentorian - Chapter Two Efface - Chapter Three Incognitos - Chapter Four Novella - Chapter Five Perforce - Chapter Six Obduration - Chapter Seven (under construction) Feel free to discuss, ask questions, anything! I sincerely welcome any ideas and input for my latest project Empyreal Paradox due to the need of more ideas and suggestions in order to work out the twists I originally incorporated in Medusa Javelin.

QUOTE (MagusKyros @ Oct 30 2006, 06:12 PM) Maybe he has a very creative imagination .Unfortuantly, I didn't write Garden of Sanctuary with just my imagination. I did draw a few inspirations from something. =P Oddly, the original inspiration for Garden of Sanctuary was drawn from a Japanese Naruto and Tsunade oneshot fic (not romantic, more like a mother/son relationship) which dealt with Tsunade forced to imprison away Naruto against her will and her final days with him before they forever said goodbye. I took the imprisonment idea, incorporated the immortal concept for Naruto, allowed Naruto a visitor and letting Sakura be that visitor, and so on so forth until it eventually became the fic that is Garden of Sanctuary. Ironically, it only took me about 5 hours to finish, which was the fastest time it took for me to write out a chapter ever (although it did take me several days to edit out the spelling/grammar errors after that). I had no idea at the time the one-shot will lead to so much praise. For that, I have all of you to thank. ^^ |

First of all I would like to thank you for writing one of the best, if not the greatest, NaruSaku epic fics out there. I have followed your story since the begining on ff.net and was blown away by its imagery, content, suspense, etc. & etc. Your writing style and use of foreshadowing and flashbacks is amazing.
Now don't be scared because of my praises because compared to all the junk stories out there your series is a jewel. So which now brings me to my question, just how will you end this wonderful trilogy with all of these twists and turns that you have created? Well however it'll end do you plan on writing more narusaku fics? |

ok, how do i say this? this is the BEST narusaku ff that i have ever read. This is, without a doubt, the top story ever made. this can even rival the actual manga( in a certain aspect). cant wait for the next chapter.

Well however it'll end do you plan on writing more narusaku fics? I do have an ending planned out, but I can't exactly go on and tell people how it ends, no? That'll just spoil everything. =P I can, however, tell you that there will be four or five different arcs within Empyreal Paradox itself. I haven't really decided if I should do the first one yet, which is the main reason that's hampering my progress with Chapter One. Of course, there will be multiple timeskips within the story, and at the very end the events that happened in the canon Naruto Storyline and the events introduced in Medusa Javelin will come to a full circle. When I do finish this story, I will probably go back and start rewriting Tainted Demon Eyes, my other Naruto project, from scratch. I want to rewrite the whole thing since I'm quite dissatsified with the first three chapters, and I want to go back and finish it since there are many crazy ideas I came up with the project and it'll be a shame to see it go to waste.

But honestly, I myself know that I still have a long ways to go before I can call myself an accomplished author. I'm still dissatisfied with several parts of my writing such as description, but either way, I'm glad to know that I can captivate people with my plot (which is probably my strongest point) and I can't tell you folks how happy I am to be showered with so much praise. I will do my best to finish the next chapter as soon as possible. ^^ |

well.....
weird how reading something can you give you so much inspiration to write an epic trilogy... sweet! looking forward to the future of Emphyreal. Anyway, how did writing a one-shot turn into this trilogy? i mean......one-shots usually tend to be notoriously short........ P.S. Yay for Tainted Demon eyes! i read it and i liked the storyline. i was kinda dissapointed when you stopped writing but then i found out about The Garden of Sanctuary Series. |

Tainted Demon Eyes was a really good story, I look forward to see what crazy ideas you have made up for it
 .Also, some authors work on multiple fanfics just in case they are stuck on one. You can start TDE's right now if you are stuck right now. |

Garden of Sanctuary itself is about 9000 words, and I've seen several that goes well over 12000 words, and, in some cases, authors then expand that oneshot and turn the story into an epic. To name an example, Ender's Game, a famous Science Fiction novel/series written by Orson Scott Card, originally started off as a oneshot (if I remember correctly). It was simply the same case for Garden of Sanctuary as well. QUOTE (MagusKyros @ Oct 31 2006, 07:43 PM) Also, some authors work on multiple fanfics just in case they are stuck on one. You can start TDE's right now if you are stuck right now. I considered this, but in addition to Empyreal Paradox I'm already working on Genocide Sunshine, a Bleach fanfic that's loosly based on the Bleach oneshot fic I wrote a few months back. With me working on two projects simultaneously, in addition to me being a freelance translator for the latest Bleach manga raws on Narutoforums, and with a real life job to boot, I unfortuantly can't find the time to work on it. |

True, but if you ever get stuck on both, you can always start on that one

So, you've put a thread up for the Garden of Sanctuary series. Well, first of all, I say, thank you, as I have put in a review for Medusa Javelin (pen name: Gunned Down At Noon, =P). And, you're story has inspired my stories to no end (even though some of my plots don't relate to yours).
Well, all I can really say is: keep on keeping on. Can't wait for the next chapter. - Mr. Revolver "Yes, yes, I saw the 'Terrence and Phillip' movie. Who wants to touch me?" ~Eric Cartman |

I have read The Garden of Sanctuary series and I have to say, its excellent.
I cant wait until you get finished with the first chapter for Empyrial Paradox. ( Sorry if i spelled that wrong, im just a bit tired right now... ) I've read the Prologue about 3 times because it took me a few times of reading to get it. 
I would probably be a better person if I didnt have to deal with society hating people like me.  My DA: http://zero7923.deviantart.com/ My Gaia: http://www.gaiaonline.com/profile/index.ph...mp;item=3697443 |

Update:
Chapter One is 'technically' complete, but reading the chapter over I noticed the chapter had been riddled with a few major errors that needed to be worked out so it'll probably take me an additional day or two so for me to edit them out. So sorry, folks. But it'll be coming out soon, I promise. :shamefulcry0js: |
