Thanks, @kathleenramm. 🙂

I have seen those movies, @leon-fleming, although I wasn’t thinking of them in particular when I referred to Moriarty. I was thinking of the books.

I saw the last two Disney Star Wars movies unfortunately. I skipped the most recent one. I’m not a Disney Star Wars fan. The writing is just terrible (and there’s no excuse…[Read more]

Oh that’s awesome! And it seriously makes my job as a trainer so much easier (no joke, so many people underestimate the importance of things breeders do or don’t do). Are you looking at becoming a dog trainer for a career?

Well, for my job I mostly work with puppies 8-20ish weeks old. There’s a lot of diversity in the breeds I work with,…[Read more]

Being able to freak out an entire world of characters without ever actually being in the room? Maybe Sauron is the greatest villain of all time.

Darth Vader. Why did I not think of him before? Most iconic, in my book. He is also a good candidate.

@leon-fleming mentioned Sauron. I would say that Sauron is a brilliant example of a villain who distances himself physically from the story but is still very active within it. I often find myself marveling at this.

He acts through his minions, somehow escaping a passive role in the story despite the lack of physical presence.

Although… I guess…[Read more]

My favorite villain is probably Sydney Carton, but I’m not sure if he counts exactly.

And the six-fingered man.

Hmm… honestly the first one I thought of was Loki, but again, he’s a wishy-washy sort of villain overall. He lacks conviction.

Moriarty! Smaug! I like them too.

Mother Gothel… she was really good, I thought.

Captain Hook! Now…[Read more]

@lrc

Oh that’s awesome! Is there a particular reason you do it? Golden retrievers are awesome too. I work at a puppy Daycare and we get heaps!

@devastate-lasting That’s awesome! Which DAW are you thinking of getting?

@Leon-fleming Thanks! And that’s cool you’ve written some songs too! And I can totally understand the struggle of finding the time. It’s definitely been hard for me to keep up with both music and writing.

And that’s great you’ve got a couple of my songs! Glad you like them!

Well I’d love to hear anything you have!

And by micro-genre I mean you want to get really niched down as far as what genre your music falls into.

If you try to target fans of piano music for example, you’re a very small fish in a very big pond, and even if you are discovered, your music isn’t as likely to resonate.

Instead you want to dig…[Read more]

. . . Can you come up with a different quest?? Tallest tower + mountain dew doesn’t really fit the job description. XD *at least I hope it doesn’t*

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin My apologies. Spy just seems to fit well with assassin.

@leon-fleming YES food! Once, long ago, raspberries and ice cream were the most important and precious commodities of this kingdom (besides writings).

Indeed! Justice for the Bumbling Henchmen! *stares into the setting sun* you are destined for greatness. *nods sagely*

Now if I recall correctly, Chosen Ones like Anakin Skywalker, Frodo Baggins, Harry Potter, Katniss Everdeen…. and many more …well, we don’t have the easiest time of it. Enjoy being Henchmen while you can. o . o

lol no problem. I’ve had my share of hijacking threads. 😉

I absolutely love this idea!

Here is my latest work-in-progress…

Andromeda Coast · Robot City – Demo

Ah, cool! Yeah, I’m pretty sure he had a different bandmate(s) at the time.

Piano-pop/piano-rap…kinda like Twenty One Pilots then? Haha! That’s cool!

Ah, so more of a getting started with marketing advice?

I’m personally about going the Indie route and not signing to a label these days.

I actually have a guide that gives an overview of how…[Read more]

Welcome @not-so-secret-secret-assassin !

My four younger siblings all do Taekwondo! And my youngest brother is a black belt as well! Cool!

What video games do you like to play?

Glad to have you here!

Hi Samuel! It’s great to have you here!

Congrats on already having a novella finished! And Fantasy and Sci-fi are right up my alley! My first novel, and the one I’m currently rewriting, is actually called “Frozen Fire”, which sounds pretty similar to “Fire and Ice”. haha!

And hey, another music composer! I do as well! Do you have any recorded…[Read more]
