Musings on Sorcerer's Trial
Recently, I've been rereading the first book in C.S. Friedman's  Open in new Window. Magister Trilogy. I'm in complete awe of Ms. Friedman's world creating and writing ability, and hope to be half the writer she is someday.

What particularly draws me in about this trilogy is the source of the Magister's magic and how they manage to survive its use. It's a fascinating concept, and part of me is sad that she came up with the idea before me, as I'd love to explore it myself. However, last night, I got the inspiration to do something similar, but slightly differently. As such, i wrote the short story "Sorcerer's TrialOpen in new Window. [ASR] in which a sorcerer's apprentice must face his final ordeal in order to earn the power he seeks.
