Resources?
Believe it or not I actually had to do quite a big of research in order to write my stories! I spent hours on the internet, looking for
helpful web pages and links, or clues about what sort of books might shed some light on my problems. You would not believe the things I've had to google.
So, in order to save you some valuable time of searching through the endless list of web pages, I created this page which has a lot of the links I frequently use. I hope you
find them just as helpful as I have!
Characters
Kabalarian: This place is great for finding names. Although I didn't use it
for The Page Turner, it has been useful in multiple other stories, including My Pet. It includes a detailed explanation of the name, which also helps you to
shape out the character's personality.
Fantasy & Middle Ages
The Middle Ages: A highly informative webpage that is riddled with tons of information on life in the Middle Ages.
The Castle Learning Center: A great source that gives a nice overview of life in a castle. Great information on castles and how they were built.
Pegasus: Sometimes I can describe a magical animal if I view pieces of art that depict it. This webpage has a lot of art work of the pegasus.
Fashion in 1910
Womens Clothing: A great place with some good visuals for Women's clothing in 1910.
Media Productions
Dramapod: A nifty webpage full of many Radioplays!.
Find Sounds:This place is AMAZING when it comes to finding sounds or sound effects for productions.
Other
Famous Quotes: I highly recommend this webpage for quotes. Not only is it helpful
for fiction writing, but I've also used for essays and school papers.
Translators: In order to really create mystery, sometimes it helps to use words from
different languages. This webpage is an excellent resource as a multi-language translator
Swords
Wikipedia Katana: A good resource page that has a lot of pictures, as well as the parts correctly labeled.
Weapons and Armory: A page that has pictures and small blurbs on a lot of ancient weapons.
Webpage Resources
PDF files: I'm cheap, and because of this I had a bit of a problem with trying to figure
out how to change my word documents into PDF files. Finally I found this webpage that will convert documents to a PDF file.
StatCounter: This is very useful if you're a webmaster and you're looking for a free stats counter. It's a good service and digs pretty deep into who visits your webpage.
Daystar Design: A great place for free layouts and avatars, as well as one of the biggest bishie wallpaper archives out there.
