@S-G-Dewey Yay for you! That’s an great name!

Romance these days, be it triangle or not, is very cheesy… there have been very few romances I’ve read where I was actually glad it was there. Author’s seem to lose sight of what love actually is, and they play it up to be some big emotions thing because the girl is so beautiful and when he’s with her, he feels this tightness in his throat and…[Read more]

@Daeus Just when you think KP can’t get any better. This. Is. So. COOL.

@Aratrea Well, after three days of pondering, I’ve finally figured out the theme of my novel, which I’m currently editing. Here we go:

Theme: The intrinsic worth of humanity

Focusing Question: What gives a person value?

1. If they’re useful to society
2. If they have great social appeal (beautiful, smart, funny)
3. If they’re good
4. If they’re…[Read more]

It was kind of an overlay of the characters, pasted over the top of the main ship in FTL travel. I’ve seen it implemented in other places, and I thought it would be a good style on the cover. They actually fade into the background a little, as if to say, “They’re not actually there…” Perhaps I need to accentuate that a little more.

“Can you tell that the character on the right is a girl”?

@leumeister I kind of had it backwards and thought the character on the left was a girl and the one on the right was a boy. Merp.

I think cover 2 has possibilities, though I think the title is slightly too big. It kind of looks like it’s falling off the page. And about the Cover 1,…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper I won’t judge you for it. Tolkien’s a hard guy to follow. 🙂

@Dragon-Snapper @Daeus @Winter-Rose Well, I’m going to take a break now. I rewrote a whole bunch and feel surprisingly satisfied with it. Thanks for the icecream party. 🙂

@Emma-Flournoy Not a skimmer then? *hands you trophy* You have won my respect.

@Daeus Well that’s good. I was pretty sure it wouldn’t, for me, anyway, since I’m a fast reader and got through LOTR in roughly two months. The Silmarillion’s kind of smaller.

@emma-flournoy I literally laughed out loud about the “fair, strong, and tall” part. You’re right; that is so Tolkien. XD And yeah, I heard that it’s no walk in the park. But then I thought, “Do I call myself a Tolkien geek and not read the Silmarillion? I’m braver than this!” So here I go. And I love background. Especially when Galadriel’s in it.…[Read more]

I’m sorry.

@Winter-Rose why does this make me think of a Studio C?

I’m sorry.

@Daeus Whoop!

@dragon-snapper How cheating of you! 🙂 I’ll be writing for a bit.

@Dragon-Snapper Ooh ooh ooh! We knows, precious, we KNOWS!!! How to Train Your Dragon, Astrid to Hiccup. Here be mine:

I think you missed a column.

Actually, disregard that. Photography homework calls. 🙂

@Winter-Rose I’ll be here for an unknown amount of time.

Russian and Australian. I have no idea. Is it something Disney?
