@mariposa  Yes…but very ill indeed.  🙂

@ingridrd What do you like to draw? Do you make Christmas cards? 🙂

@xonos-darkgrate I know some people who would find that too graphic, but I don’t. I think there’s a good light/dark contrast and it doesn’t make me feel empathetic toward the villain so I’d say this is good so long as it’s for a good purpose. 🙂

@dekreel  EEEEEEEKKKKK!!!!!!  Just yes.  I think this calls for a party.  Cake’s on me.

Oh, and I didn’t read your excerpt either. If I did, I’d want to know what basic content was in it first and I might not be able to get it in anyways.

@xonos-darkgrate

I’ll just stop in real quick to drop a few bits of meat, but if you want to hear a lot about this subject, we have several articles on it.

The thing I think is crucial to understand with content is that you want sympathy but you do not want empathy.

Hey!
So I haven’t read the thing, because I’m a bit of a ‘link-a-phobe’ (not you, just the internet), but my main thoughts are dark themes and darkness in literature in general is that if you’re not comfortable showing it to someone close to you, like your mom or dad or brother or sister or best friend, then it may have gone to…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper  *trips into the room*  W-what they said…

😉

@leumeister Yes

@leumeister I would personally vote 1, 3, 2.

@Dragon-Snapper YAS. THE MORE VILLAINS THE BETTER.

*coughs* Okay, maybe not always… but personally, since I write sprawlingly epic books with dozens of thematic threads and plotlines apiece, I usually have at least two villains. One is usually the head bad guy, but giving him an evil sidekick doesn’t hurt.

@dragon-snapper Sure, though you shouldn’t just stick two stories in one book. The two villains need to have the same goal or attack the same weakness in the protagonist or do anything else that keeps the story coherent.

Thanks for the input guys! 😀

@kate-flournoy @daeus I tagged Kate because I knew she wrote fantasy…I just didn’t stop to consider how long the fantasy was. 😉 My mistake. Haha.

Tagses!

@daeus @kate-flournoy (Am I allowed to ask you on this one? 😉 ) @sam-kowal @shannon @emily @daughteroftheking @supermonkey42 @ingridrd @andeverone else

@dekreel  Praying hard.  ❤️

*evil snickering*

Yeah… @Daeus and @Sam-Kowal were right. I’m the wrong person to ask.

@Dragon-snapper

Oh, wait, you already asked Kate this question. WHY!?
