Forum Search Tips Close

Basics

  1. Search syntax is similar to Google searches.
  2. Words shorter than 4 characters are ignored.
  3. Searches are NOT case-sensitive.
  4. Automatic 'and' queries: The search will only return pages that include all of your search terms.
  5. Only the body of the post is searched by default. Use the Advanced search to also search by subject.
  6. Word variation/stemming is currently not supported. For example, if you search for acting or acted, the search will not return results for act.

Phrase Searches

Sometimes you'll only want results that include an exact phrase. In this case, simply put quotation marks around your search terms. E.g. "cool video games"

Negative Terms

If your search term has more than one meaning (bass, for example, could refer to fishing or music) you can focus your search by putting a minus sign ("-") in front of words related to the meaning you want to avoid. For example, here's how you'd find pages about bass-heavy lakes, but not bass-heavy music: bass -music

    We gave away 5 copies of Fallen on Wednesday. (And we'll be giving away FIVE MORE on Monday, November 23rd!)

    The winners for Wednesday, November 18th are...

    AND THE 5 (RANDOMLY SELECTED, IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER) WINNERS ARE:

    • carpenoctem: I have FALLEN for helping others! Through middle school I felt like something was missing and felt a hollow space inside of me needing to be filled. I started volunteering at the local hospital my freshman year and the hole started to fill. I have realized I love helping people and making them feel better. I can't get enough of caring and helping others. I have FALLEN head over heels for it!
    • p51tracker: I have fallen for Nichole, my wonderful and beautiful girlfriend. =) I don't even know what I would do without her now.
    • Lyon: I have fallen for reading, in every possible form. I can live without a lot of things, many different things that I could give up, from the computer and TV, to even food. But I will never be able to give up reading. I have fallen for it, completely and totally.
    • Hallia: I have fallen hopelessly for writing. I've been an avid reader all my life, after growing up with my mother reading me epic fantasies...almost as soon as I could construct a sentence I began writing my Hello Kitty mysteries. xD When I was twelve I wrote my first novel, and now I'm participating in NaNoWriMo. =)
    • PinkDaisy I've fallen for the beautiful Matt Bomer of the television show, White Collar. Yes, that may make me a bit superficial and a lot pathetic, but he is gorgeous.


    The winners for Wednesday, November 25 are...

    AND THE 5 (RANDOMLY SELECTED, IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER) WINNERS ARE:

    Berriesrbest: What character that you've written is most like you?  What character in any book (by any author) is most like you?

    Thaisari: If Fallen was made into a movie, who would you want to play the main characters Luce and Daniel?

    Punkrocker12: What kind of music did you listen to while writing Fallen? Or did you listen to any?

    Sheba201: Why did you choose to write a book so similar to the twilight saga?
Or is it just pure coincidence?
Or did you feel that you could shed some light on the fact that a book can be like twilight however completely different and individual.

    MissDanaidae: What type of research did you do for Fallen, if any? Did you draw on any particular myths about angels or put different mythoi together?

    Congrats guys & gals!

    Vampires don't exist. But if they did exist and one knew that you knew what he was, he would probably smother you in your sleep.

    I'm not going to bite your jugular. I could kill you like that.
