  12. They're like unwanted and unliked relatives; they just never get the hint.
  13. No, they don't read the bloody rules. I've nuked it.
  14. 14023 No worries.
  15. If anyone here has Kindle, would they recommend them? Thinking about the 3G model.

      I LOVE mine! I highly recommend them! They are the format that you can get the most books for actually.

  18. DemonGoddess is correct, that's why you were deleted. What you need to do to become a member of this forum is stated clearly during the forum signup process.

  20. So, Americans don't call lemonade, "lemonade". Well I'll be damned.

      btw, we do have Sprite here, but Sprite is just a brand of lemonade.

      Wow! No homemade lemonade.... So no 10 pence stands near your house, I'll wager, huh? :)

      We don't use pence in Australia, but no, I've never seen or even heard of that happening here. lol

  21. I tell you what I did to help me with my writing in the early days: I read books by good published authors and paid attention to how they wrote. I say authors, plural, instead of author, singular, because you need to be exposed to different authors and different writing styles. And another thing to do is to keep writing and keep trying to improve! Oh, and just because one single person doesn't like a particular thing you do doesn't mean that it's wrong. It might simply mean that this one person doesn't like that style, while everybody else does.
  22. Points of view that change around constantly within the one scene... for that to work, it has to be written very well. Otherwise, it can have the tendency to be at least a little off-putting, if not outright difficult to follow. I also feel there needs to be a good reason for it to be written like that, since it's not a technique that I believe should be used in every story. It's also likely to come down to the personal preference of the reader. Some won't like it, no matter how well written it is, while others will be fine with it.
  23. *sigh* You watch, I've told relatives that not everyone will be able to stay here over Christmas, that some will have to make other plans, and I just know we'll be the ones that turn out to be the jerks. I hate Christmas sometimes.

      ::pats bench:: I hate it most of the time, so come sit on the curmudgeonly bench with me. Nothing like forced gaiety to make me cringe.

      I'm with you there! It can't be over soon enough.

  24. If anybody thinks I'm going to be doing any writing whatsoever when Skyrim has recently been released is insane.
