Just so you know, I started to reply to you this weekend to tell you about the WoT fanfiction I'm writing in which Egwene is revealed to be the Dragon Reborn but thought you wouldn't find that amusing.


If it's meant to be humorous, I might find it amusing. :P I assume you're doing a AU/portal stone world? If it's meant to be serious, then yeah...probably not! Unless you make her life as much of a hell as Rand's has been...then it might prove interesting, provided you aren't god-moding her as much as RJ and Brandon have (i.e., she gets stuffed in a box and cut off from TAR but breaks her kidnappers with one of her trademark glares that seem to turn everyone in the series to quivering wrecks).

The funny part is that I'm actually learning to like writing Egwene's POV, and it's a bit too easy to slip into the "I'm smarter than everyone else and everyone should bow down because they just don't get it" attitude. I still hate the character when I'm not writing her, though, and I refuse to have every character she encounters to cave to her and fall into mindless worship/submission as easily as they have in the series. That's about as believable as the fact that everyone in the world finds Lanfear to be the most beautiful woman ever. There will always be someone who disagrees, even if it's just one person.


LOL I was just joking. I was tempted to try this years ago, but studying for law school has derailed my free time. I'd still like to see the DR be someone who doesn't use swords or engage in typical action hero battles :).
