  1. Suppose the best question is how much detail do you want? Need to know it’s 60% cotton / 40% polyester? A chapter, a paragraph, a sentence, or a few words? Gender (identity) matters too. For boys, “green T-shirt” is likely sufficient to get an image. For girls, lace, frills, buttons, beads, zippers? I tend to view it from the perspective of another character, what’s the first couple of things that are noticed? Outer garments, shirts & jeans being the biggest targets. For younger characters, the shirts might often be promotional, so an orange Safari World T-shirt, for instance. Underwear matters for lesser dressed characters. Of course, if the character is wearing their “LUCKY” socks/underwear, describe that! Or, simply dress a 4-year old in a Batman T-shirt and they’ll be unafraid! Another source of ideas, catalogs, if you can find them.

  3. Still good advice for anybody who doesn’t want the two tied together. (Especially if they’re on a work screen-share zoom call.)
  4. If you’re googling that, might I suggest a separate PROFILE in your favorite browser? Keep those results out of your normal web-browsing ads?
  5. While I tend to opt for nudists in my stories (thus, clothes aren’t an issue), might suggest browsing around fashion sites/shows or the like?

  7. On the THIRD day of Christmas a true love ought to give three destroyed spammers’ modems, two broken spammers’ keyboards1, and a spammer’s head in a pear tree.

    1Credit to @BronxWench for the second line, maybe a forum topic would’ve been better?

      One the second day of Christmas, my true love gave to me two broken keyboards, and a spammer’s head in a pear tree.

      Started off as a conversation with a coworker about the likely OSHA violations (for Santa’s Workshop).

      Yeah, I’m going to say it’d be the otherway around. You’d think it would be like wolves descneding on some old dude but then you realize Old Saint Nick has one eye.

      Word of advice to any Wall Street private equity firm thinking about this potential buyout? Do not fuck with the All-Father. :lol: 

  12. Well, if you’re unsure how to proceed, a slow cook, a good sauce, and baste frequently, are usually good rules of thumb.
  13. Might make it more complicated, so the friends aren’t in the first place he checks… like, maybe he thinks its the trolls at first? (Or whatever monsters you settle on.)
  14. 88 Kudos on AO3, does this mean I’m going back in time?

      Crisis averted, somebody helpfully hit the button, 89 kudos.

  15. Sure, November’s goal might’ve been a bust, however, I think I’ve overcome the hurdle that stopped my progress.  Therefore, my December’s goal is to advance my potter story from 1066k to 1125k (on-drive count).  Already had 1.1k this morning before work, so off to a decent start.
