That black hole is something else. By Arthur Inverse The Last Philosopher is a ride. The story starts with a black hole named, wait for it. Di- I mean Richard. And as a black hole should be, he think's hes the absolute center of the universe, able to bring everything to him and underfoot. Then we are brought to our chrotchity old headmaster of our school. The story so far has been good with worldbuilding, pictures and maps in the story adding just the right amount of touch and immersion to help visualize wheer you are and what is going on within the chapters. I found little to no errors in word choice, flow, and spelling. Solid all around.

I just discovered the Fanart friday tag so you're going to be getting some fanart of my story The Last Philosopher on fridays 😁

This one is a map of the Sojurut continent before and after "The Spell"

The Last Philosopher, an epic fantasy has mastered all of the essentials of the genre. The worldbuilding is incredible. And might I say I was very excited to see maps included in the chapters. Our world is important as it shapes not only the plot but the characters as well. I get the sense that in this first installment we are getting the tip of the massive iceberg behind the world of Huom. Something that you did incredibly well with was your characterization. Your characterization in this story was absolutely incredible. You showed us stellar characterization through actions and the inner thoughts of the characters themselves. Overall, this was a refreshing unique take on fantasy! A very engaging read. The pacing is a little slow but the pay-off and reward is so worth it in the end. And the plot has so much potential going forward. There is so much clever wit in this story as well which | thoroughly enjoyed! Nothing like some good old cynicism and humor!

🗃️ ARCHIVE : « Mickey dans le domaine public » (2024)
Il y a 2 ans, Mickey entrait enfin dans le domaine public, mais l'héritage des droits d'auteur, ça reste un truc pour le moins… discutable.

Bon, après, je me moque des Américains avec leurs lois sur le copyright taillées sur mesure pour protéger les profits démentiels des grosses boîtes comme Disney, mais si on regarde de notre côté de l'Atlantique, c'est pas beaucoup plus reluisant. Déjà, nous, on a ce truc des œuvres protégées 70 ans, mais pas après la publication de l'œuvre : 70 ans après la mort de l'artiste. Par exemple, Saint-Exupéry étant mort en 1944, Le Petit Prince n'est entré dans le domaine public qu'en 2015… et encore, pas en France. Pourquoi pas en France ? Eh bien parce qu'en France, à ces 70 ans s'ajoutent une extension des droits d'auteur de 18 ans car Saint-Exupéry est mort pour la France, et le Petit Prince n'y entrera donc dans le domaine public qu'en 2033. Alors la justification, c'est parce que, comment vous dire… comme il est mort pour la France, il est mort jeune, et du coup il a pas pu écrire tous les bouquins qu'il aurait dû écrire. À cause de la France. Donc c'est logique que ses livres publiés soient protégés plus longtemps, comme ça il peut… enfin, ses descendants… lointains, en 2030 quoi… ses descendants pourront continuer à gagner de la thune dessus, et c'est… j'sais pas, c'est juste ? C'est équitable ? J'en sais rien. Moi déjà, j'ai toujours trouvé ça débile que le droit d'auteur se transmette aux descendants, mais bon. J'vais pas embrayer sur un débat sur l'héritage, sinon on va encore y passer 2 heures.

Well I finally started tuning back into as it was all I was thinking about for a while, and needed to take a break, and that break is now over when I'm walking by gigantic protests on my way to work in and the may actually invade .

Oh and basically kidnapping the president of was a plot twist I wasn't expecting.

Am I inside the country that starts WW3?

Well that's a terrible fate.

Excerpt of my book The Last Philosopher.

In "Trying to do right" we're introduced to a character who's escaping a prison and thinks he's The Last (Free) Philsopher 😊

Nothing about this baby-faced man gave the impression of a convict. For one thing, his ever-changing frown was often somewhere between perpetual amazement and advanced calculus. Combined with his weary blue eyes and the grey streak in his hair, it gave him the look of a scholar. To complete that image, he needed a beard, but his smooth face could never produce more than a slight fuzz. Herschel |. Pensador was trying out a new idea: non-violent resistance. Just one of many notions this gifted thinker had about how things should be done. But it hadn’t evolved into hunger strikes or protests. Instead, the non-violent part only meant that his escape should bother no one else. Not even the guards. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/tynp5wgkwr0dkvmf3dzp3/The-Last-Philosopher-Part-One.epub?rlkey=n61zknkz05eakr809gcs19kzd&dl=0
