Yep @Kate I spell colour as colour because without the u it looks colourless. And all those other stuff. Those words ARE actually spelt like that dear. British was there before American and that Noah Webster whom I really don’t like.
That’s not true about the K and C about Katherine. I much prefer Katherine to Catherine. If you have read Anne of…[Read more]

Hey Rolena it should actually be specialise instead of specialise in British speak because British people use s’s instead of z’s. I’m currently almost finished with my first draft of an attempted novel yay it’s actually going quite well. And shout out to Natalee who said hi 🙂

What about Hercule Poirot or Sherlock Holmes? Both of them supposedly died, leaving their sidekick in the depths of despair; but both ultimately came back.

Aiyoh I went to sleep in Singapore and all this happens in the U.S. while I’m sleeping. It seems as though this discussion is over but I’d like to say what my main point was: sure you can write about vampires and zombies and such but only as long as they are portrayed as evil.
