Writer: What To Expect When Your Beta Reader Is An Elven Prince
By Lucy Mitchell
When I met Allie Potts, in person, back in June, at the Annual Bloggers Bash event in London I found myself experiencing a bit of an author / blogger crush.
Allie had flown in from the States to be at the event and as I have dreamed of being an American writer all my life (my parents sadly didn’t get my telepathic message from the womb about wanting to be born in America) I made a beeline for her. Allie is lovely, she has a fab sense of humour and her amazing American accent made me follow her around like some star struck fan.
I knew she had to come and guest post on my blog, hence today’s post.
When Allie sent me her proposed guest post I was intrigued by the title. It brought back those strong feelings I experienced when watching Orlando Bloom take on the role of Legolas in Lord of the Rings. I am not even sure whether Legolas was an Eleven prince but still the thought of Orlando Bloom Legolas reviewing the second draft of my romance novel is a special one. I imagine the Elven take on romance is different and probably features a lot of poetic words, a lot of leaping into the air (sigh), Elvish ear stroking, tight wearing for the male elves and smouldering elvish looks cast across forest glades. As no one ages in the Elven relationship I bet its non stop romance and joy!
Anyway, enough of my thoughts on Elvish romance, please welcome author and blogger Allie Potts to BlondeWriteMore:
