# About me

Wolfenlied is a frequent poet (time willing) and occasional prose writer hailing from the Eastern Cape South Africa. He has a keen interest in local herbal teas and music, good coffee, wolves and philosophy regarding the human condition. Both an eccentric lecturer* and carefree logician**, his writing carries a recognisably sober, yet emotional, tone.

He believes that sharing writing and improving is more important than getting published and that having means giving. "Stuff" doesn't make life worthwhile. People do.

*During the week.
**On weekends

Wolfenlied In reply to Inkfish7 [2012-01-07 20:12:07 +0000 UTC]

LOVELY book that! My favourite by C.S. Lewis. I can recommend The case for Christ by Lee Stroebel as a similar read. Always liked Lewis's non-fiction more than his fiction.

Inkfish7 In reply to Wolfenlied [2012-01-07 20:13:00 +0000 UTC]

Yeah... I've only read the Chronicles of Narnia, and I wasn't too into it. I also have the Screwtape Letters sitting on my shelf, though.

Wolfenlied In reply to Inkfish7 [2012-01-07 20:26:17 +0000 UTC]

I found Screwtape letters ok. It had some profound moments but never really grabbed hold of me. As far as shorter fantasy goes I really like Tolkien's Tales from the perilous realm. What I do like about Lewis specifically is his writing style: It's almost as if flows effortlessly into your mind. It's an amazing style really. One I would love to emulate.

Inkfish7 In reply to Wolfenlied [2012-01-07 20:35:43 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, definitely. I'm pretty psyched for Mere Christianity. I just hope I have time to read when school starts up again....

After that pick up a copy of This present darkness by Frank E. Perreti (if you haven't already). You won't regret it.

On December 27, 2011 you added a favourite to “Season of Faith” [link] which was listed as a daily deviation. Please be aware that this DD was an insult, and has now been removed. The details of why I had it removed are in my journal. Please refer it for detail. As your was added simply because the deviation was given a DD you may choose to remove it.

Thank you

Wolfenlied In reply to WayneBenedet [2011-12-28 09:31:54 +0000 UTC]

Although the DD drew my attention to the piece initially, I was enamoured by the photograph itself. It is simply extraordinary and I am not saying that just to win favour, I am sure you are already well aware that you have earned your way to this level.

I have also read your journal and respect your views. I would quite like to have look at your other work as well. If, despite this, you still prefer me to remove the favourite then please let me know.

I was wholly unaware of the magnitude of the metric imposed although I have seen other professional artists (such as `alexiuss ) refer to it. I don't think I've considered other online arts communities beyond dA. I think I may just look for a writers workshop site at some point.

I don't have a preference in regards to the . I just wanted you to know that the status had changed, and if the status had affected you vote, they you should be free to make a new decision. What ever you decide is acceptable to me.

I'm pretty surprised to get a personal reply since you got 478 favourites on it. So, although it's not expected it is appreciated. I find I enjoy Cummings, maybe why I enjoyed yours.

Still working on those replies, it is a bit overwhelming! But I really do appreciate all the support, so I'm trying to thank everyone.
I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Glad you liked the feather.

A chemistry teacher remarked once that there is very little difference between marking chemistry and creative writing! You are not alone!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Wolfenlied In reply to AfricanObserver [2011-07-26 19:41:52 +0000 UTC]

The question then is whether creative writing is more formulaic or chemistry more free. I did indeed enjoy the feather. I would love to see it as a DD.

Some of the 'free chemistry' gets to be a little illegal!!!
