I was nervous about updating "thing X" on a book, for fear of anything. It went thru, just took forever. For me, patience, and not just regular patience. But the patience of JOB himself... is my new watchwords for anything to do with writing.

you're probably right. But if I choose to hate them for a perceived "making it personal" sleight, allowing me to deceive myself into action, would you. LMAO didn't mean it like that. I throw self deprecating humor into my own mix all the time. sorry I caught you in my flush. I'm sure you're...

what are you, some kind of degenerate? I respect that, LMAO

I hate to break it to you, and theKillingAlice... they are said, to always home in on the writers that are not that popular. Not the big stars. I think the psychology of this grift. is that if you're getting going, but haven't made it yet? you'll fall for the praise. A "big" experienced writer...

@lizzyrose : you might as well take my whole video course, you got most of it anyways. 1. have a premise. (start) 2. know your destination. 3. simple list to keep on pace. 4. real life character models. what's number 4? easy. why waste you time making stupid diagrams, to create a "more real"...

how did some author in the late 50's, ever manage to write such an infulential crime noir, that it both spawned a career doing it for him up thru the early 70s, as well as inspired the whole next GENERATION of writers. He had NOTHING. pencil, pem, paper, clipboard/chalhboard... and a humble...

Lighter. Smokes are all gone in this world. i refuse to do brute strength power MC... has to have the smarts to go with what reasonable power he has. My MC? would *find* then *fix* and old coin operated video game, surprisingly REAL CLOSE to "BERZERK" 'Bazerk' - game play. robots all head...

if you like that? You'll love this... here's the secret to "pace"... lets assume you decided 200 (ish) pages, standard first paperback. that's 80k words, lets say 100k words, upper limit. Allow for what-not. 100k / 5k = 20 chapters. Chappie # Chappie Goal...

Love the intensity and focus, the kids are going to eat this up. I got someone, tweak the lyrics a little bit. Might drop the intro, don't bore us get to the chorus. Goddamn kids got the attention span of a flea these days. But this is solid gold, kid. Kiddies will eat this up. Sign here. Go on...

ha. you say that now. OP? wait till she gets the calculus books out, on y-o-u... lol

hey, works for me. I was just curious.

so... other than (that quote) three little girls in elementary school, can do *anything* normally reserved ONLY for characters over the age of 18. And the only difference will be... "even if stated otherwise".

I have to ask. how are three girls in elementary school, over 18? are they like police officers deep undercover as toddlers, or what.

I suppose my tomcat could have a go at tearing it up, lol but its getting the water squirt bottle, if it doesn't use the litter box.

Good job OP. it is a good feeling. i think its going from 999 (triple digits) to 1,000 (f-o-u-r digits) that does it.

yeah, definitely. that lurch in the guts, that sniffle. That came for the first time late in the writing game, believe me. When i felt that, and kept feeling it even knowing it was coming, I was like... this has to be doing the right thing. But, I'm getting close to finding out. I have a beta...

I know this feeling. And yes, waiting until its "enjoyable" to read your work again? You definitely see more errors, see the punctuation and phrasing different. the one I like, is when the "kicked in the guts" emotional part comes up. I'm still prone to feel that lurch in my guts reading it...

does it have to be a tomato? I mean, just for the sake of argument... he might like, say, a boob or a butt-cheek, who knows what boats his float. I just can't see being like... "oh, I can't wait to get the next 45 minute session in the bag. I get to draw another vegetable."

do most of you not realize, as killing alice related... if you get *out* of the mindset of getting online and having it do its thing that way. and get *into* the mindset of just... connecting it to your computer, and figuring out where on the hard drive and in what format to store the "ebook"...

ask them what language translation I should helpfully provide. or hey, you want something for a certain demographic? just tell me. I'll write you 200 pages of *degeneracy* for any market you want. "Beneath the Burka" - the uplifting tale of a brave girl who dared to show her face in public. She...
