@dragon-snapper @winter-rose @jess I’m still going too.
@daeus Well done. I don’t know how many words I got since I’ve been editing. And still going. -

@dragon-snapper @winter-rose @jess I’m still going too.
@daeus Well done. It’s all for writing Daeus, even if it’s not writing. -

@daeus I worked on a character map and wrote half of a notebook page description of a certain setting or another. Mostly, I was actually on the course-language topic. Woops. 😛 And good job! Glad its coming back!
@jess @bluejay I’m still going for a bit. I need to get something productive done, like plot… -

@kate-flournoy That is true. I suppose that one would say about a favorite desert, “This is heavenly,” that makes sense. Then it just goes back to Romans 14.
About what @winter-rose said. Yes, we need to be careful; and this too, we need to be sensitive to whom our audience is. Children don’t need their heads in that stuff. Teens don’t need to be…[Read more] -

On similes using heaven and hell, I think its ok sparingly. The reason I say sparingly is because you don’t want to trivialize heaven and hell into a byword.
Here I must disagree with you, though I’m glad you agreed with me first off.

@daeus I have come to the conclusion that I need trained sea creatures including a Barracuda, swordfish, sea horse, a mermaid and a merman.
Wow! I have destroying an hair style I had in my hair as I am editing. You’ve picked up on some (lots) of great points. And they’re making me think. Last night I was editing, and I suddenly stood up and acted…[Read more] -

@daeus Well, I don’t think that cursing or coarse language should be in a book, or in movies, or anywhere. I have a few reason that I’d like to point out (please keep in mind that I haven’t read much of the other points that people have made. )
1. When I read, words stand out to me. Each word has a meaning. So, the word stays in my head for…[Read more] -

Ha! That’s great, Tessa. Editing will never be boring, huh?
Absolutely. @daeus Do you want it back when I’ve finished or are you sick of it?
No, I’m not sick of it, but I’m fairly busy for a while, so I don’t think I could fit in a second run.
@daeus No worries. 🙂
