Got what right?

You’d better come back on here quick, @sarah-h, before this topic devolves into complete silliness. 😀

@Daeus! that is a logical fallacy!!!! It’s called Equivocation. Equivocation on the word sacrifice. Yes. Quite serious, actually. 😛

I did laugh once I got it though. 😉

Um… what?

Haha! Killing them both is definitely not the solution. 😛

As far as writing clean romance goes, it’s really pretty simple. Keep it clean.

Okay, it’s a little more complicated than that. 🙂

Something I’ve found very helpful is observing my mom and dad, who are two of the most in-love people you’ll ever find. So that’s a quick tip.

As far as…[Read more]

Right! Okay— I see it now. Yes. Tons of potential there. Wow… I’m mocking logic. I can’t believe it. That’s just… so… so…. I can’t believe it. 😛

Oh oh oh I just discovered a new kind of comedy! I mean I didn’t discover it… but I noticed it for the first time. 😛
I’m not exactly sure what to call it, so I’ll give the example that finally got my attention.
Okay, so this man and his wife are driving down the road and they almost hit a skunk. The wife goes, “Oh no, that was close! What would…[Read more]

Great! Wonderful! Glad it works— you’re right, it does fit. There ya go! 🙂

HAHAHA!!!

Haaaaa… that’s hilarious, Daeus. I saw another one of Ted Cruz as Captain America. 😛

And you have a good point there, @writefury— it made me think of something. There are technically two different categories of humor— I just realized that. One is intellectual humor, the other… what do you call it? Slapstick?
Intellectual humor I would…[Read more]

Hm… you have a point. I didn’t think of King Arthur… well, maybe you could just call it plain ‘medieval fantasy’, though that might have the same difficulty.

One of the things fantasy fans (take it from an expert on the subject) love is the vivid, vivid cultures and the unusual aspects of a wholly different world that define fantasy in its…[Read more]

Historical fantasy. 🙂

Perfectly great— perfectly fine, perfectly okay. Only fantasy fantasy has to be fantastical. 😛

As for the style question, reading through what you’ve posted so far I’m going to say it reminds me heavily of a lot of classical authors— specifically (guess who) Alexandre Dumas. There are a few minor differences, but it’s…[Read more]

@ivy-rose oops, sorry. I had a fleeting thought that you’d probably see this thread and get some spoilers about the next book (though only a few since I don’t know all that happens yet myself). As for Sean…shall I tell you or make you wait in suspense? 😉 Except it won’t be for nearly a year, so I suppose I’ll tell if you wish…

A pepper bomb…and with everyone used to high tech weapons they’ve no defense against such an old-fashion burning hindrance. 😉

Enigma will be changing, kind of like what you suggested. Well, it has several layers and each one keeps getting worse as they figure it out. Except the government doesn’t know about all of it…But if her father died…[Read more]

Exactly.

What?! That you make me laugh???

AAAAAACK! Help! Attack of the killer elbow noodles!

Building off of your idea, @Hope… an evil baron with an allergy to broccoli.
A brilliant leader obsessed with spaghetti.
An evil scientist who has a soft spot for frogs and macaroni.
A weak, timid protagonist who has an uncontrollable affinity for any and every reptile in existence.
Something along those lines? You’re right— that would be…[Read more]

You make me laugh so hard, Daeus. 😀

Well Hope, my idea is similar to Daeus’s, but I’ll post it anyway. What if the dad was taken (for whatever reason— trying to save Anna maybe as Daeus suggested) and they experimented with their (or Daeus’s) new Enigma thing on the dad.
Maybe there were problems they needed to clear up about their new and…[Read more]
