I was re-reading Raymond Feist's Magician in the bath last night and I had something of an epiphany.

I can write better than he can.

No, seriously; he's repetitive, has great chunks of text where nothing in particular happens, cliched themes, and doesn't know the plural of Knights-General (no, it's not Knight-Generals, Ray. Go to the bottom of the class). Not to mention other annoying, but less-memorable errors, which may be more an editor's responsibility, but still.

So basically all I need is the huge, world-space-and time-spanning story arc and a publisher who agrees with me and I'm set.

*waits*

Damn.

Terry Brooks sucked me into his whole shannara series, and I can't help it, even thought I know it will never end, I wanna know what happens. And I know he's repetative, and some stuff doesn't make sense, but that whole sucky black hole, has me in there and floating around shannara series.
