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 want 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

*stares at dinner* This is inhuman! I demand that the food be burned before someone get hurt! I won’t be forced to eat it! *parents stare at Calvin*

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! 😀

Welcome to the site, @graceofspades2017! Great to see another fantasy lover. Haven’t read Wingfeather Saga yet, but it’s on my reading list for this summer!

@Dragon-Snapper uhhhhh… uhhhhh… *gapes at you* Okay. *tries not to stare* Uhhhh… if you didn’t see it, no amount of my telling you what I saw will really do much good, but I suppose it won’t hurt to go through it just in case. 😛
First of all… Jyn’s arc. From ‘It’s [‘it’ being evil and oppression] not a problem if you don’t look up’ to ‘We…[Read more] -

@graceofspades2017 Ah yes, the Wingfeather saga. I’ve read The Dark Sea of Darkness, but never managed to get the other two from the library. (This is what happens when you rely on your sister for library books. She will undoubtedly forget. 🙂 ) It wasn’t my favoritest book ever, (I thought the characters could do with a little more development)…[Read more]

@graceofspades2017 Heh, yeah, bestistest is a thing. Don’t ask me how it got started, because we’ve all tried to figure that out at least once and never succeeded. 🙂
HURRAH! I don’t know anyone who’s read THC either. (At least, I don’t think I do…) I haven’t read any of his other books yet, but my aunt just lent me most of them. I’m finishing…[Read more]

@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?

@graceofspades2017 Um…a dragon snapper is me. I’m not really sure what it does, because I’ve never personally met another dragon face to face. You see, as we talk here, there’s a computer screen between us. 😛
AAAAHHH! Storks is the bestest movie ever. Great movie.
I haven’t seen Earth to Echo, though.
