@jenali For girls’ names, I usually like the letter’s A and J, though it varies. A lot. 😛

@graciegirl Ha! At first I misread it as Arsizi, and then I thought that was very close to Parcheesi. 😛 I pronounce it as Ar-ee-zi, and it does seem like a girl’s name to me. If not a girl, then probably some thief that should be in Ranger’s Apprentice. … In other words, I like it.

@aratrea Yes, it’s for a positive character arc for this one character. There is a second book as well, so I have to keep that in mind…by that I mean he uses it negatively in the first book and positively in the second.

@aratrea Yay! As I go, I am tying everything together with the plot, so that the theme and pride within this particular character is running along with everything else. I am so excited with all this! Thank you!

@perfectfifths @daeus @ingridrd This is what grammarbook.com says. Exact quote:
Rule 2b. Do not capitalize quoted material that continues a sentence.
Example: Lamarr said that the case was “far from over” and that “we will win.” -

@Michael-Stanton With fantasy, who needs the internets?

@daeus I looked up in this super awesome grammar book I have… you are correct. YAYAYAY! I don’t think that the Well is capitalized, however.

@winter-rose Well, I’m going to go now. I was able to unfold a lot of layers of plot, so I am very happy. Good luck on your post!

@aratrea
Again, the theme is pride. (I’m just going to use that one as the practice one, because posting all seven of them might take a long time… 😛 😀 )
Experiments in Living:
1. Pride’s okay, as long as it doesn’t spread or grow to arrogance
2. My pride is my identity
3. My pride is uncontrollable, so I won’t control it
4. My pride is bad,…[Read more] -

@aratrea Right, I think I have it this time.
Theme: Pride
FQ: What does pride do for or against a man?
1. Pride is simply a way to gain confidence
2. Pride won’t do anything as long as it doesn’t deprecate others
3. Pride will always destroy a man and those around him
4. Pride will grow to arrogance if left unchecked
5. Pride must be kept at bay…[Read more] -

And now, I write/plan/do this theme homework. 😛 -
Snapper replied to the topic How naming affects characterization in the forum Characters 9 years, 6 months ago
@graciegirl That’s a neat idea! I think I’ll make a list too! I happen to use ‘A’s A LOT as well, though in my more recent story it’s E. Hmm… Maybe for sci-fi the letter will be E and for fantasy the letter will be A…interesting.
Carlos, you monster! … Myeah, I think that Zlorom works better for that line. 😛
@ethryndal Eeyore. That sounds…[Read more] -

@graciegirl I organize things so that I can find them, but if it tells you anything, I reorganize so much, that I can never find anything. 😛
