You know you’re a writer when your sibling leaves you sticky notes saying, “You’re such a writer.”

Ack! How’d I do that!! Sorry!

The Ascendance Trilogy by Jennifer Nielsen. Not fantasy, not historical fiction. *shrugs* But awesome. Also not Christian, but not horrible either. No evolution. *shrugs*

@seekjustice What? It’s the best way. 😉 simple, and that way you can avoid infodumps because you just have to punch someone. That’s enough reason in itself.

Okaaaay… I’ll just… back slowly away… *hides in corner until the scary ninja ladies are gone.*

Ew. Carrot pizza. No.

*throws virtual ice cream everywhere* 🍦🍦🍦🍦🍦🍦🍦🍦🍦🍦🍦

Thanks for the input guys! I think I figured it out. The electricity for the entire city was taken (by means which I shall not post for fear of spoilers. That’s way there’s no standing danger for my characters, like lava or smoke, or nuclear waste or… *cough* monsters and demons ( @daeus , if ever I need the randomiest idea ever, you’re the man)…[Read more]

@sam-kowal Ice cream? Oh yeah, you’ll fit right in. Ice cream is highly prized here abouts.

Mob mentality is a huge thing in situations like that so it’s not hard at all really.

… You sound like you are speaking from experience. You too @kate-flournoy. Is this something we should be concerned about?

@daeus I heard of the principle. Thanks for the advice, I get it now.

I do have the Emotion Thesaurus, and it is the bestiest! I expect to be using it a lot.

I should probably clarify, I do know what flirting is. 😉 I just don’t know how to do it. Or to have a character do it. Everything instance where I have seen flirting, it’s so subtle I…[Read more]

@daeus Thanks. I can do that. So what would I have my characters do when I want my readers to gasp. Have them act surprised in another way? Or rolls with it? Or reveal that they secretly figured this out pages ago?

I actually think I have heard of “Daeus’s principle” before, in an Orson Scott Card book on writing. XD
