  • Writing Activities Re: Penny Apiece

    :shock: Can I give you advice? Don't call your character that. It is an English slang word which means a certain part of a girl's anatomy. :oops: Oy, that's, er, ...

  • Action/Adventure Novels Re: Ever Happily

    Oy, and this part is somewhat more present--it all happens in the moment, no interludes of thinking back. But it remains vaguely surreal. It's curious, but there are flickers of ...

  • Lounge, The Re: sanctum is real

    Ha, well, nothing that we've found, Aedomir. ^_^ 'Tisn't syllable count either--I've put that in, and "35 36 33" did no good. It's not in any sort of meter, is ...

  • Lounge, The Re: sanctum is real

    I tried quotes from Alice --at least from the book. None got past the "forbidden" response. I have the sinking feeling that this is one of the simplest riddles; and ...

    'Lo. ^_^ You have some more than amusing dialogue--the exchange, in its repetition, is hilarious. That said, you've also some technical inconsistencies that distract the reader. VERB TENSE Er, don't ...
