@emily-d Pumps fist into the air excitedly because she can’t open the forum quick enough I LOVE TINTIN!! I love it more than Calvin and Hobbes!! I’ve got all the books except for the second one, Tintin in the Congo (its’ pretty hard to get, I think, because Herge was ashamed of it) including the unfinished Alph-Art. Have you seen the movie from…[Read more]

Sci-Fi Research Part 2
Huh, Sci-Fi Research sounds dry. What should I call it instead? Anyways . . .
So I found out the definition of sci-fi and I’m super excited. I can’t wait to get more and I immediately start researching sub-genres. You know—the genres within science fiction (I use genre and sub-genre interchangeably. Just warning ya).

@ethryndal I’m actually going to post her name, because well, it’s the internet… 😛 But please, feel free to draw her.
I forgot to mention she’s about 15.

@daeus Pretty much, I agree with everything you said about the characters, except how they got better at the end. Because I couldn’t connect in the first place, it was really hard to do so in the final battle. And actually, I don’t really like the movie either, so yeah…you’re not alone.
Also, I found the previews completely misleading, so maybe…[Read more] -

The only one at the moment is a typo in the line, “…as the ground feel apart around her.”

You’re welcome! 😀 I did see a few errors, and though normally I’m a picky beta-reader, especially with people I know/am more familiar with, I didn’t have the heart to be picky at the moment, plus I wanted to enjoy the story without interrupting myself in making notes about edits 😉 😀

And has anybody seen any good indies lately? ‘Cause discovering an amazing indie is like unearthing a treasure chest. Just sayin 😀

Honestly, I didn’t really brush my article up that much. Just added a couple sentences in the end talking about, as Kate said, the unavoidability (not even a word) of cliches. Just stressed how unimportant they are.

@brandon-miller Love how you summed up science fiction in that one sentence
A good sci fi story always explores what it means to be human in the present, by exploring alternative realities, past or present, and highlighting humanities strengths and weaknesses in those settings.

@dragon-snapper Yep. Your mind’s ideas just soar above my level of comprehension 😛 Maybe use actual examples? I dunno

@dragon-snapper Great! I really liked it too. I thought it had perfect tone for the story it was trying to tell 😀
@kate-flournoy Haven’t seen Rogue One, but I did find this vid about it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsIQa7sH5_Y

Wow, that was amazing! I have often seen this prompt around, but I’d never given it a try. If I did, I don’t see how I can top this!
Very well done! 😀

@kate-flournoy Ah…
So, why do you think that the character and relationship was good? I can’t see any arc really, for either of the characters. I can’t see them as great characters, really. And what was the theme?
