@Daeus that’s a good idea about the content advisory.
I don’t quite agree with comparing curse words to romance or violence or any other more ‘normal’ sin, as their crime is not their existence, but spelling out their filthiness on the page.

@perfectfifths, No Claire is not my real name. (surprise, everyone! :P) I’d rather not say what my name is on a forum as open to the internet as this, but it starts with B (and I would be willing to tell you if you want.) We were in Perth from about, let’s see… 2004 – 2008 and then late 2009 – early 2010, then we set off to PNG as missionaries…[Read more]

@dragon-snapper @winter-rose @jess I’m still going too.
@daeus Well done. I don’t know how many words I got since I’ve been editing. And still going. -

@daeus Well done. It’s all for writing Daeus, even if it’s not writing. -

@Daeus @Dragon-Snapper I think it would be better for just avoiding any confusion if those similes weren’t used at all. I know one can’t always (nor should necessarily always) avoid everything that could potentially be confusing, but it would perhaps be better to just use different similes.
I don’t think it’s wrong to use them though, as far as…[Read more] -

Snapper replied to the topic Writers' Corner #3 in the forum General Writing Discussions 9 years, 9 months ago
@daeus I worked on a character map and wrote half of a notebook page description of a certain setting or another. Mostly, I was actually on the course-language topic. Woops. 😛 And good job! Glad its coming back!
@jess @bluejay I’m still going for a bit. I need to get something productive done, like plot… -

@Dragon-Snapper good point, but may I point out that they’re not talking about swearing. They’re talking about similes. Likening something to heaven or to hell, not saying ‘by heaven’ or ‘by hell’.
Yeah. 😀
