  1. Got an idea too. Will start writing when I get home from my double shift.
  2. Oooooh. This sounds fun. Alas, what lies we weave with masks. For which is the true face?
  3. Anyone try www.BetaBooks.co?

      It looks interesting. I might give it a shot, at least the free version, just to see what it’s like. I got all excited about Scrivner, too, and now I never use it because my brain doesn’t work that way. So, yeah, for me it would be the free version first.

      My brother and I used to leave each other messages in mirror writing, because I fell in love with Leonardo’s notes. :lol:

  5. So what kind of dragon? Or is that not pertinent?
  6. good thing they decided to wear blue that day then xD
  7. Never count heroes out unless you have seen the bodies, Have access to said bodies and have their souls corked in a wine basement somewhere in a hidden location on another continent in a different dimension.
  8. The only thing that makes sense with Rey. Is that she is likely a wound in the force. Like the Exile in KOTOR2 but much more badly written. She doesn’t display force powers until after she encounters other force users. The funniest theory regarding her is that she might be Aboleth. The most OP character in the extended universe.
  9. Mary Sue’s are one thing but don’t go overboard and off the cliff on the otherside. I think first, You should write a mary sue and then just use it as a reference of what not to do. There is nothing wrong with characters who all happen to have sad backgrounds. Tragedy is everywhere. Why are they clingy do they have a reason to be clingy is it just there without reason. The best way to avoid mary sue is let things happen to your characters. Let them live. They shouldn't get their way all the times. Things happen. Items. How do the clingy don’t want to be alone characters react when circumstances force them to be alone?
  10. I’d have to say this would have to be a must if you got two parties going. From what I’m seeing the smaller hidden party is playing hard for the endgame. The cusp of victory is that sweet spot where everyone isn’t at their best guard after all. Victory is in your grasp the goal is practically touching. Focusing too much on the impending victory. Main party should have some distrust. As in why are certain things happening that only the party planned together unfolding? I think the hardest part would be the hints that the smaller party isn’t as dead as everyone thinks. I mean did people actually see the bodies? The smaller party would be going off the plans the party made before they got separated.
  11. I fully agree. Rape is a distinct turn off. At the basest level Rape is about forcing another’s flesh to sate an appetite that went off the rails wrong. That sense of power over another. To take what should be only given willingly. reading the accounts of rapists is rather disturbing to read as they try to justify it. The victim was simply asking for it . Was too beautiful/sexy they couldn’t help themselves. I think the most chilling one I’ve read was a female rapist who had the urge and she wasn’t going to take no for an answer. And she didn’t understand why the man called 911 after she released him.
  12. It’ll take some time but in a confined space away from the rest of the world would allow the characters to interact over a period of time. Both syndromes can and have happened at the same time. Humanity’s ability to bond with anything and our innate empathy ensures given enough time. The captor will have as much emotional capital invested in their captives as the captives have in their captor. Both will react violently if outsiders try to harm either. Particularly if both parties aren’t complete and total monsters without a shred of empathy. Bonus points if this forced relationship is more stable and healthy than their normal relationships.
  13. I’m gonna have to try that main characters who are nudists.
  14. That’s why death by hand blender is so surprising.
  15. So content yourself with the humilation of making him wearing clothes and not chained to the bed Hahaha.
  16. I’d go with with either sudden fatal aging, collapse into dust route. Or a slow decline as friends and family notice. Or A kiss of death. Or sucking the soul out of them.
  17. Its not like their sun is gonna suddenly explode. Or their reality ends with a total vacuum collapse.
  18. Ah yes. Here’s the greatest sex of your life… Now prepare to kiss the front end of a bus with failing brakes. I disagree it would be more mean spirited to not include any such thing would make that world more of one drowning in ennui and half empty.
  19. Well I usually use a pillow. I’m usually rather forward with it. Made them fall down a flight of stairs. Falling off a building onto exposed rebar. Drowning by concrete. Hurled from a vehicle straight into a wood chipper(no seatbelt) Kissed by death, devoured by a pack of feral cats, Entombed with a mummy, Mummified by natural exposure, Having their heart summoned directly from their chest in front of their family. Having their clothes inverted into their insides. Curses aging them into dust and last but not least having that bitch thrown out an airlock and then blasted by the ship’s primary weapon. Some characters are just meant to die. Others may not have intentionally been marked for death but the story just goes that direction. If I do like the character they should get a proper send off. Lots of foreshadowing. I’m not that much of a monster to heartlessly not give the character advance notice. Sometimes you start off liking a character but then they evolve in ways you don’t forsee and then you hate them with a passion that no star could match. These characters are bound for final destination deaths with as much spite as possible with all speed. Authors like it or not can pretty much be naught but spiteful deities. It depends on the character and the situation. There’s only been a handful of characters i’ve written who did what they set out to do. They knew they weren’t coming back… But they went anyway. Those ones I have the most trouble trying to keep them alive short of divine intervention. It would be rude to ignore that inherent nobility. Even if they have gruesome ends Valhalla awaits.
  20. Well I’d argue it depends on the sex drive and circumstance much like real life. Somepeople fuck like bunnies and some people enjoy turning it into an eventful hour-long event with sensual precision
  21. Dont forget Lima Syndrome. Where the captor falls for their captive. Or dependency or other sycophantic behavior. Which further muddies the swamp water.
  22. There’s nothing wrong with being optimistic. Stranger shit has happened in reality. And pessimism isn’t all that its cracked up to be.Even in darker settings.
  23. Its defintely better to err on the side of caution. Its a heavy topic.
  24. Scat and anything involving minors. Everything else is fair game.
