Linyang Zhang replied to the topic Recommended Manga in the forum Book Discussions 3 years ago
@sparrowhawke Ah, ’tis my time to shine.
I’ve read so much manga in the last few years I’m not sure if I should be ashamed or not. At this point I’ve been desensitised to most things so I’m going to watch myself when recommending stuff.
When people ask for reccs usually the first one I recommend is Fullmetal Alchemist! It’s absolutely perfect,…[Read more]

Linyang Zhang replied to the topic Which story was the quickest to write and which was the slowest? in the forum Topic of the Week 3 years ago
Shortest was a quick three page short called “Delusionary” that was based off of a quick two line conversation someone and I had during rehearsal one day. But short stories aside, I can write 50-80k work in 40 days. But that doesn’t count, actually. Which perfectly segues me into…
Longest: “Thirteen Ways to Infinity” is an…[Read more]

R.M. Archer replied to the topic Which story was the quickest to write and which was the slowest? in the forum Topic of the Week 3 years ago
Shortest: Not counting short stories, since I can write at least one of those in a single day, the project that took the least time for me was the novel I wrote the first time I officially participated in NaNoWriMo. I wrote around 53k in 23 days. I have no plans to do anything with that novel because it’s kind of terrible and there are very few…[Read more]

Awwwww, Ella, I am SO, SO, SO, SO sorry to hear that. 💔 I had covid over a year ago, so I can DEFINITELY relate (except my school was online, so I somehow managed to be sick with covid and keep up with school all at the same time… don’t ask me how). I just wanted to let you know that (1) you’re not alone and (2) I’ll keep you in my…[Read more]

Issabelle Perry replied to the topic Any Urban Fantasy clean book recommendations? in the forum Book Discussions 3 years ago
I’ve just recently been introduced to urban fantasy, so I haven’t ever read any books, as knowledge serves, that are in that genre. (I believe I heard someone say @e-k-seaver novella The House That Didn’t End was urban fantasy. I *sniffs* sadly haven’t gotten my copy yet, but I think it’ll be REALLY epic!!!)
Anyway, urban fantasy’s…[Read more]

you didn’t have to cross the “better than a comedian” part out. I’ll take that compliment proudly.
Thanks for the story, the yoda quote, and tips. But honestly, time isn’t my problem. I have several hours of free time a day where I just lay down and stare up at the sky and contemplate my life and daydream about what could have…[Read more]

@trahia-the-minstrel I’ve read the whole of Assassination Classroom and I agree that the content/humor can get very. Um. Yeah. But also the overall story and themes are really good, so I view it in a positive light. Dr. Stone I’ve gotten a lot of ads for, but haven’t watched it yet.
Um. Content for Code Geass (it’s been years)… I watched it…[Read more]

R.M. Archer replied to the topic Help. I Just Don't Get the Appeal of the Wingfeather Saga in the forum Fantasy 3 years ago
@not-so-secret-assassin
The first book reads like a bedtime story. It’s not the deepest. It’s not necessarily high-quality literature. But it’s fun and it kicks things off. (And I personally enjoyed the footnotes; I found the writing style amusing.)
The second book I don’t remember real well except that I wasn’t a big fan of it, but it’s a…[Read more]

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin *whispers* Based.
I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this before, but I read way more manga than I do watch anime, simply because I don’t have the time for it. And when I do have the time, I watch whatever I want on a whim. For example, finding the entirety of season one of Assassination Classroom was no mistake. I’m…[Read more]

Linyang Zhang replied to the topic Help. I Just Don't Get the Appeal of the Wingfeather Saga in the forum Fantasy 3 years ago
@not-so-secret-secret-assassin While I do choose to forget a lot of things, one thing I will remember is that I haven’t read any books, much less middle-grade fiction, for years. And I don’t remember reading much fantasy, at all. And honestly books with dragons in them are pretty much all the same (where’s my Eastern Dragon representation, eh?)

@devastate-lasting Your silence speaks volumes. You HAVE read it before, Linyang. You just chose to give yourself amnesia so you didn’t have to continue having nightmares about it. Smart choice. Any tips for self induced amnesia? Oh yeah, you wouldn’t remember.
And thanks for your blessing. I’ll need it.

Not-So-Secret Secret Assassin replied to the topic Anime Nerd/Chat in the forum Film 3 years ago
I don’t like anime. It’s too nerdy for me. I’m not a cringe weeb. I’ve moved on to greater things.
That said, I only like Attack on Titan.
And maybe Full Metal Alchemist.
And To Your Eternity.
And Erased.
And Death Note.
And The Promised Neverland.
And Your Lie In April.
And Hunter X Hunter.
But other than that, there definitely isn’t any…[Read more]
