@rae Nice, I like it. Always liked that historical event, it reminds me of how people in the Civil War had to fight against their own relatives. It shows how some Germans saw other human beings in the trenches, and managed to relate to them, which is a really brave thing to do in a war.

Marcel — Elderstrand (w/Group 1)

The hand motions were a little unfamiliar, but Marcel could guess from Leon’s expression that they weren’t in any immediate danger.

Marcel made the same hand motion. “We’re good.”

He was slightly dissatisfied with the answer, since Felicity and…[Read more]

Don’t test me. I’ll target you next! 😆

Marcel — Elderstrand (w/Group 1)

Marcel strained, trying to listen to Leon’s reply. Something was very wrong with his ears. Hopefully it wasn’t permanent. The buzzing had escalated into a high-pitched siren.

“Monsters… Huge…” Then Leon shook his head.

Marcel winced and…[Read more]

@loopylin

That’s… four snowballs…

Give me a moment, y’all

Marcel — Elderstrand (wsome of Group 1)

Felicity said something to him, but her voice sounded like a faint buzz underwater. No matter, she was clearly leaving, and a bunch of the group followed close behind.

Marcel watched the white braids fly off, brow furrowed in worry. He…[Read more]

Marcel — Elderstrand (w/Group 1)

Pain rung in Marcel’s skull; he felt as if something had woken him up, but he couldn’t hear anything. His ears were definitely bleeding, since his rose-colored hair had begun to clump with a darker color.

Everything was numb. Dark, wet, and…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle I love that idea too!! 🥰

@theducktator

It really depends. Does each MC have their own POV? How long is the series, and what genre is it? Typically a long, multi-book series will have plenty of characters, while a standalone may only have room for a few. (However, Gordon Korman is a big exception to this rule. He writes mostly standalone contemporary MG fiction, but he…[Read more]

@koshka
I didn’t know about the patent system update, that is really helpful to know… Huh… I did a lot of research on patents a couple years back but all the information disappeared from my brain after I finished the assignment.

Awesome. I’ll start digging this evening.

I’m going to be doing a looooot of digging in the next five months, so I…[Read more]

Hey she also has resources at the bottom of the page, niiiice.

@theducktator

Aw, I love her zeal for hair styling. That’s really cool. I would try doing what she did myself, but I actually have a short bob.

@esther-c

That’s okay, thanks anyway :]

@theducktator

Besides denser stuff, I’ll take anything I can get as lon as it’s reputable. I can’t remember ever hearing of Ken Burns, thanks for the recommendation.

@koshka

I’m leaning towards researching why entertainment changed drastically within that time period. Things like radio and film. For…[Read more]

*Pouts, snow dusting my face* Here are your words, a short story.

Little things, hidden in big things.

The bulky green cuffs of my coat did not fit me very well; some saw them as black holes, sucking up every dust bunny and trinket in their wake.

I tucked my hands in my sleeves. The cold sun, a smudge of orange in…

This is a pretty specific question, I’ll admit. 😅 Any other history nerds? @koshka @esther-c @liberty @mineralizedwritings @otherworldlyhistorian @jonas @elishavet-pidyon @ellette-giselle @hybridlore @linus-smallprint @rae

Sorry for the tags if you’re not interested, guys.

@ellette-giselle Nice perspective, has depth to it. :]
