Ladies and gentlemen of Elftown, I present to you one of our esteemed Master Poets and more uniquely named members: [
Deus Ex Taco]!
What are your hobbies?
Writing, reading, watching movies, playing Xbox, Yu-Gi-Oh!
How did you end up on Elftown?
A friend told me about it in eighth grade. At first I joined mostly to keep in contact with him, but I eventually found that the creative avenues of ET catered to my liking.
What do you like most about fantasy: writing, images, reading etc.?
The best part about fantasy is that it can take you away from reality, if only just for a moment. When you write it, you put a part of yourself into every character that you give birth to, every little amount of scenery that you forge with your words. When you read it, you get lost trying to immerse yourself into that world, into the characters' minds, and through them, the mind of the writer themselves.
What inspires you to write poetry?
My main inspiration for writing poetry is just to enjoy writing it. I mostly just try to write something that sounds cool. However, there are those rare occasions when an event in my life influences me to write a poem about it. Those poems are the ones that turn out to be really special.
Is there a specific style of poetry you prefer?
I tend to lean on the side of free verse. I often times don't like being limited to a specific format. Sometimes, though, I will do it for the challenge or if I feel that a traditional form will help to strengthen the poem.
What is your message to all Elftowners?
This is more than just a website, it's an online community. There's just about everything under the sun for gaming nerds, poets, painters, and socializers alike here at Elftown. Take advantage of that. Explore. Even though you may never meet them in person, you can forge some great friendships here on Elftown.
