Purred? These are cat people, Khajit or similar? I’d tend to write it more like dialogue, treating the action/sound as any other spoken line. So…. for example...

Upload to the forum and use that image URL for the archive?

Is my avatar showing to you, the eclipse? Because I had uploaded it from my computer. p.s. I haven’t set it for the archive, just the forum

Chapter 3 is up. (Essentially, I plan to post as fast as I write these, with a one chapter “buffer”).

I tend to forget some of those senses as I write. Taste, smell, and touch are less written about, than vision (primary) or sound (secondary). So, yeah, write in sounds, that does help stories, IMO. And, don’t forget to smell, taste, and touch … depends on what you’re writing, I suppose. If you’ve got a pile of crap, skip the description, we all know what it’s like.

Sound words, I kinda use like a spice, here and there, peppered about. I’ll typically do them on their own line, like dialogue, because it is, in a way, dialogue. For instance, flushing a toilet, I might just put in “FLUSH!” Because, well, that’d invoke the proper image, without having to have a character announce they’re flushing, or write “The toilet was flushed”…. or the like. I mean, if a character’s in the bathroom, and a “FLUSH” occurs, you can generally guess who flushed it.

IIRC. I think I encountered this before, and it seemed to be a timeout on the captcha. Assuming you’re copy-pasting from another program and fixing formatting; do the new story fast, copy-paste (don’t bother with fixing), hit submit, and then go into your story manager, edit the chapter, and fix the formatting.

What’s it with me wanting to write in characters having sex at church? Certainly one way to keep the services interesting, I suppose.

“Think of the children!” Of course, especially for the witches who find them a delicious snack.

Someone at my office brought it in – in plastic tubs. I have to walk past the @#$%^&*! mini-packs of peanut M&Ms as soon as I open the office door.

Super Gardener, able to hear plants in distress.

I think there was a Tales of the Unexpected that had that as the plot once. This guy could hear his neighbours rose bushes screaming as they were pruned. Eventually, he took an axe to a massive old oak tree and deafened himself or something, after trying to convince people that he could hear plants were in pain. He was trying to record it, I think.
My mother reckons it’s some old drama/ tv play for today series we have on DVD. Forgot what it’s called.
