take and plot twists of the popular HBO series - GAME OF THRONES.
Blog #1
Gosh I love this show! Been at it since day one. In fact, I may even be obsessed, just like millions of other die hard fans out there!
I get it, completely and utterly! I watch reruns like nobody's business all week long! Yeah... I can't
help it. I've become inpatient waiting just about fifteen months for it air. What's a girl to do...?
help it. I've become inpatient waiting just about fifteen months for it air. What's a girl to do...?
My mission with this blog, is to band all fans of G.O.T. under one umbrella. A very large one at that, but to also bring forth my works. I'm an author with five books to date. I wrote my version of 'Game Of Thrones' years ago, before I even knew what the books were about, and I admit... I haven't even begun to read one of George's books! I know shameful isn't it?
There's a reason for that, all my free time is spent writing, podcasting, and managing my new catering company. I also have three children, to which one is an elite athlete, therefore, I do my best with the little time that is mine, and I choose to write for you all. I read many comments in all forums on social media platforms, and I must say... they are quite captivating, intelligently analyzed at best. Enough about me now, let's turn our focus on one of the genre's I write, Historical Fantasy, like Game of Thrones.
I'm not comparing my works to George R.R.Martin's books here, I think the series is brilliant, and we both have our own style of writing of course. However, the HBO series, doesn't always follow the books, therefore my knowledge is acquired through many visits to their forums here on facebook, and watching the show. I have read every single post by fans, for years now! And I promise, I will get to the books, to make my blogs that much more effective and accurate.
My 'WONDERLAND SERIES'
A three-in-one box set if you will, each, still holding their respectful titles, will be relaunched this August, 2017. All titles, 'A quest for the four keys in Wonderland', 'Beyond Wonderland' and 'We are Legion, We are Wonderland' make up this series. I create characters similar to those of George's, it's high fantasy set in medieval times.
Water and fire dragons, a unique breed of "watchers of the seas'' to which I named "The Revers" that span fifteen feet in length, with razor sharp teeth, sawing down wooden boats who are trespassing territories and such, are just some examples of what you'll find in my series. "Magic?'' YES! it's a must! It begins with 'The White Covenant' and our protagonist Adira, whom has a birthright and title - ''The Queen of all Queens, Defendress of the North, Queen of all Elements, The King Maker." She was chosen to be so, at the tender age of fourteen, the last hope in Wonderland, to restore harmony and peace, in a war torn country with many Kingdoms, five to be exact. Her birthright includes a mate that can match or even exceed her powers and capabilities, and so that comes to pass. A whole world is created from there, where, magic, lore, gore, questing, conquering, romantic and descriptive sexual encounters occur.
I'm somewhat of a feminist when it comes to writing in characters that can hold their own. The women in my series have mastered the art sacking cities, manipulation, fierce loyalty to their causes, the deep foundation of reigning, terror, honor, motherhood, even fighting side by side with their husbands on the battle fields. Non stop action is what this series delivers. The Kings of Wonderland, are nothing short of remarkable. 'The Brotherhood' begins in book two, 'Beyond Wonderland'. All Kings of their proper houses and Kingdoms, come together as one. The main objective in this series, is to bring down the "Black Covenant' who has been a threat for centuries. Destroying everything in their path, 'Wonderland' as a whole, must join forces, and put an end to their odious plans. How they get there, is for you to delve into the series. It's a great addition to your book collection, to fantasy lovers all around the world.
''Obyris" ( vampires ) the sleepless ''Minotaur's'' are some of many villains they must face.
The powers that are held by our Wonderland Panel, are those of shape-shiting, griffins, fairies, teleportation, casting protective bubbles over their Kingdom's to prevent raids, by none other, ''Sabel'' the witch. The matriarch of evil. But this tale brings on more. My characters are far from perfect, the challenges they meet, lead to the very fiber of whom they become, perfectly suited for their world.
It is also embedded in reality! It teaches us about an era, where nothing was sugar coated, and life as we knew it to be back then, was pretty barbaric. I know, that if you're a fan of 'G.O.T.', you can easily stomach this.
Chapters entitled; "Nefarya", ''The Rightful King'', "Sovereign's Eminence", "We are Squadron'' and countries, cities, such as "Fairyus", "Taston", "Whitewood", even the most common ones we know of today, Cambridge, Salem, MS. As book three, dives straight into the future, where our protagonists "Cam & Stephanie Burrins" twins, go back to their ancestral roots, in Wonderland to end a five hundred year old curse, and aid with their own challenges in the twenty first century.
Currently in the works, a sequel to this series, entitled 'Crown of the Ember' will launch this fall, 2017. Please look out for that one, as it will deliver all you need to know about Wonderland, going back to how it all began.
COMING SOON!

I may be late in this game, but I will do a bang up job on delivering my "own'' interpretation of what happens in G.O.T. just for fun! I will deliver this blog weekly for all fans out there. So if you haven't begun to read the books or watch the show, please...I recommend staying away from the blog, we don't want to be spoilers for anyone! If I may ask, please be kind with your words.
- I want to begin with Arya Stark this week.
Totally blown away with her scene and stellar performance! But, who doesn't know this
by now!?
Here's what I think Arya's fate will be...
A) She's become the most skillful assassin in all of Westeros. I would love to see Arya
finally sack it to Cercie! Oh yeah, that monster has it coming! Although, I love the evil
Queen for her ability to stare danger right in the eye! Arya will kill the Queen, disguised as
Jamie.
As it stands, Jamie does not possesses two good hands, and the prophecy from the witch,
states she'll be strangled by a sibling with his bare hands. C'mmon people! The obvious
answer has been Tyrion all along, and I get that. Let's be more creative here, shall we!?
What if... Arya does end up in Kingslanding, kills Jamie, takes his face, murders Cercie,
only to pose as her... for all time? Far fetched?! I think not. Nothing is, when it comes to
G.O.T.
B) Arya will definitely kill little finger, and Sansa will be caught in the crossfire somehow!
It's a long shot, but I certainly see this coming by the third episode. Knowing little finger,
he might just use Sansa as human shield! But get's his anyway. They might not be a
couple now, but maybe, just maybe, in death!
Last but not least...
C) Arya will go to Winterfell instead. She'll be diverted by the "Red Priestess'' Melisandre!
Yes! Yes! Yes! The witch lives on with purpose, and therefore shows Arya a "fabricated"
fate. They dine over pigeon in the forest of the Riverlands, and Arya is immediately sold!
What's Melisandre's goal? I haven't the slightest clue, but maybe you can fill in the
blanks on that one, by commenting on this blog post. I'd love to get your view!
If you have enjoyed this blog, please share it with friends.
Cheers - Lory.
