So, in answer to all the questions:

the laptop did an un-authorized update. So while I hit save on all my documents, I still had them minimized instead of fully closed. Normally it tells me about the update and offers a time. I then shut everything fully down, make sure it’s…[Read more]

Umm… Perehapes he was a slave, or at least treated like one, earlier in his life, along with his brothers and cousins. They escaped, and tired to help other slaves.

🤨

I wrote like two paragraphs of his backstory.

This is Omar we’re talking about.

Have you read the section where he introduces himself to Leon??

Okay l…[Read more]

How… Wow. That’s pretty spectacular. I like it

🙂

By the way, I have this goofy habit of adding dialogue onto the end of what the author writes. Erich was in the middle of threatening to clean the place with his gun before I realized the conversation had changed. XD

Which is probably from how happy I was to see someone…[Read more]

and Part 3 (and I might share more from what would be the next scene too, but this is the end of the exact scene I’ve been sharing)

A vaguely familiar masculine voice…not very familiar, but familiar regardless.

A blue-eyed, blonde-haired man in a US Army unifor…

Part 2 of the scene I shared🤭 (and this still isn’t all of it…still working on it atm)

Franz’s gaze didn’t stray from Riker’s. “I thought you were dead…we all did.”

Riker’s back pressed against the wall.

He should never have left the Altmann home in a rush.

E…

Whaley and Ducky have great advice! *takes notes* I don’t have much practice with fiction in this department, but this is a great question, so I’ll share my thoughts.

I’ve been with a few people in the days or even hours before they died, but they were all very ill and usually could not communicate. However, notes from what I have heard…[Read more]

@theducktator @whalekeeper

Thank you for the advice!

I was just thinking about making pana cotta! Never tried to make it before, but I had it a few days ago and enjoyed it.

Although I might swap out the rosewater for orange or lavender.

You can totally do that. Just decide what flavor combo with the spices is best in your opinion.

@stephie

*Sighs* *Flips hair dramatically* I have answered your irrelevant interview questions. It’s too bad I’m behind bars, or I would set your printing press on fire. And not in a good way.

Hm. I have a couple characters who go through the same thing. One has a few days, the other has a suspicion of their own death and only becomes sure of it in the last few hours.

I think it depends on how much of a communicator they are, and what kind of legacy they want to leave behind.

Character A might tell his friends immediately (or not long…[Read more]

Oh no! Technology can be a beast sometimes. I’m glad you were able to get some if it back!

my loyal subjects, I beg pardon.

Tragedy has struck.

The dragon laptop ate LOS for breakfast! 😱

I was able to recover most of it, but alas I must be away to other duties.

No new sections until Monday. 😭

@linus-smallprint

Oh my word.
