Ma'am?

oh, c'mon... there are some Mary Sue characters who are supposed to be just like that. let's take James Bond... huh? he is an icon because he is such a perfect, I-can-win-everything-and-make-all-ladies-fall-in-love-with-me guy it is intended. so if you create a Mary Sue, being aware that this is Mary Sue - that's okay. not every book/story/movie has to be a deep psychological drama. we like James Bond, Indiana Jones, Lara Croft and so on. cliche and scheme work sometimes

yup, exactly! then you can ask readers if a character is interesting and you'll get much more constructive opinions

The clue is not the character description, but the way you can put life in it. Write If you do it well, then characters will defend themselves.

Weel, I can see both sides, being a reader and a writer I think that the crucial thing is to put a line between not updating "because..." and an inclination to start story after story without ending them. I believe writers should try to be kind of "reliable". If they upload something for the public, this public shouldn't be then forgotten and ignored

Okay, there is the other side of the story and I'm an example: when a fiction is not updated for a couple of months, I just give up on it. I forget what happened before and I have no wish to read it all again So it's good to keep it in mind - not updating means loss of some readers

I'm not a specialist, but I think that sexual desire is something that develops a bit later so the whole REAL idea that stands behind sex, need of physical pleasure and satisfaction comes with time and body development. It's something that hormones, for example, take part in. Moreover - as Keith said, I don't believe child could just independently make big money like this. Children don't get the idea of money, value and price very well... I'd asume that kid would do what other wants for small or simply no gratification. If you say that the "business" is run by adults - okay, I get it. But whatever the case is, children themselves don't get paid much, if at all. You could make some research on child prostitution For a good start: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prostitution_of_children

It's hard for me to imagine that a child can be a prostitute at the age of 7. Probably he doesn't understand the idea of sex yet. He might be used, abused, raped, sold, but not a self-conscious prostitute, I guess...

I have finished chapter 9 Enjoy!

I like playing originals. I'm more into creating characters than replaying them and trying to fit in...

apart from the fact that I don't see Snape torturing anyone out of love/hate - I don't mind actually it all depends on your ability to make things convincing; if you can justify your ideas - perfect

well, the subject as old as writing itself... readers. feedback. reviews. yes, they all motivate me and makes writing thrilling. not that I wouldn't write without readers, but the more people tell me they like what I do, the more seriously I think of my writing.

I think utopia is not to be achieved not because rules are vague but because they are hard to obey. It's all between egoism and altruism and it'll never be the case that altruism beats egoism in every person

actually not guilty; but we were talking a lot about what we like to watch g/ng: being caught when masturbating?

yep. which is something I still regret. g/ng: regretting a chance to try a relationship with someone that slipped by?

The Fisher King (1991, with Jeff Bridges))

Name: 8/10 I like the sound and it's short and easy to remember. Avatar: 4/10 or... 10/10 I have no idea what the hell it is so I can't say if I like it but in temrs of avatars that draw attention - it's perfect. every time I see it I have to ponder over it Signature: 6/10

uhm... guilty and not guilty I drive too fast but it's not that often. g/ng: masturbating when reading a book?

guilty; more than guilty; as a rule I don't give tips unless the service is exceptional sometimes I break this rule but it's only sometimes; g/ng: doing something wrong and shitfing the blame on someone else?
