This is a great topic. <3 -hops over to add my two cents-

In what I’m working on right now, I’m writing from the perspective of a certain guy who’s… actually quite foul mouthed. But the thing is that it’s not the total sum of his thoughts a lot and it works just fine to go “I swore under my breath as I checked my watch” and still keep it within…[Read more]

@Daeus I would never read a curse word from a script, whether play or book. Something you could consider (though it’s kinda minor) about whether or not to put the words in your writing is, what if someone were to make an audiobook or movie out of your story (pretend for a minute that’s likely to happen. 😛 Ya never know!), they’d have to say the…[Read more]

No, it’s not right, and it’s not as harsh as other words, but r…[Read more]

@NatalieMarie Neato.

@Leumeister How long have you been writing?

@Daeus hm, yeah. That’s a puzzler. I would probably not do that, for the sake of my conscience and because I wouldn’t want to get accustomed to having bad words on my lips, even if they aren’t mine.

@Daeus true. I guess I meant more that to acknowledge their existence by saying ‘he cursed’ is not the same as actually putting all the lurid details down on the page.

@Daeus that’s a good idea about the content advisory.
I don’t quite agree with comparing curse words to romance or violence or any other more ‘normal’ sin, as their crime is not their existence, but spelling out their filthiness on the page. With ‘romance’ and violence, you can put as many or few details in as you like. With a curse word, it’s…[Read more]

@jess I’m leaving now. I think you won’t be far behind. I have almost finished two edits on The Golden Conch. Super pleased.

@jess I’m still going. 🙂 To the rest of you adios! 🙂

@bluejay @jess I’ll be going now… Pretty much, I jotted down my thoughts of what conflicts I could use onto paper. Good luck!

@NatalieMarie Both. 😀
