    Writing Prompt Monsters that require other races in order to reproduce

    The chrysalid? Please tell me you're not considering the chrysalid. I mean, I'm sure she'd be down, but you'd be down after. Forever.

    Asking for synopsis feedback

    I think the synopsis length is fine, the meat of it however... Feels slightly off. The first sentence is incomplete-ish and the second feels like an extension of the first but sounds weird on it's own. Consider just smashing the two together and doing some clipping for word efficiency like so...

    Chapter 2 Of Love and Life and Lightning dropped yesterday.

    Shameless self promotion, others seem to be doing it with various degrees of success. If no one knows you have something to show, who will see it?

    Do Americans feel like they’re main characters?

    You can violate an idea, a principle, a pledge, a promise, or a law. I think you thought I spoke of it as a law rather than an idea now, which I didn't, otherwise I would have called such an act illegal or some mutation of that accusation. I would be more than happy to speak with you about the...

    Do Americans feel like they’re main characters?

    The goalpost hasn't been moved, we weren't (at least I wasn't) arguing the definition of the separation of church and state or its legality. I'm sorry if that wasn't made clear in the post I made, but I assure you, I am aware of the history. Can we also stop with the personal attacks? You can...

    Do Americans feel like they’re main characters?

    That's rather blurry, but you can see it in certain news and radio shows (Bott Radio Network, though they're a very soft example that doesn't do much harm if any), as well as political forces (the Groypers) that make no distinction between Christianity as a religion and the country. Basically...

    Do Americans feel like they’re main characters?

    I was speaking about the separation of church and state as an idea (which still holds up as a guiding principle of the nation as reflected in the First Amendment, if not explicitly encoded into law, I'm not claiming that they are the same, but that they influence each other) not a law, I also...

    Master of Orion 2, where I ironically practice the fun side of nationalistic xenophobic jingoism and cleanse entire planets without any real world consequences by the day. The space combat and ship customization is beyond its time. I highly recommend it. Laura Ingram pushes the Great...

    Do Americans feel like they’re main characters?

    Depends on the area you're in. A lot of private schools and schools on bases have it as an institutional thing, and there's significant pushback to return to that state in places where the requirements have dropped. Even in a good amount of places where the morning pledge has been made optional...

    Do Americans feel like they’re main characters?

    By all means, tell me where I'm wrong. Back up your statements, as I have mine. Or I'm just not going to take you seriously. No hard feelings, chap. Oh. Oh, I think I see now. It's more like you're willing to integrate with and support the nation you live in because you chose the nation, but...

    Do Americans feel like they’re main characters?

    I believe that's the main rub, a lot of what they're saying are nationalistic traits, we ascribe to patriotism, and a if I may be so forward as to assume, I think many people see nationalism as baby jingoism. The limits of the dictionary definitions also don't account for how the terms are used...

    Do Americans feel like they’re main characters?

    Don't know if you've been watching what I've been watching, but Hannity and Laura Ingraham more than qualify, as does the general bend of their media bias (and all stations do have bias, we're not talking about the Left's mess right now though ((and the popular left does have a mess)) ) The...

    Do Americans feel like they’re main characters?

    Nail on the head. Note the exclusion of any conditionals and the "especially to the exclusion or detriment of the interests of other nations" bit. Nationalism has historically been used to exclude demographics within a country by declaring the X aren't worth as much as citizens, or are less...

    Do Americans feel like they’re main characters?

    Alright, first, chill your head please, this isn't a personal attack, merely an observation on historical trends and the perception of US citizens. On your first point, Fox news would disagree with you, military expenditures in the movie industry would disagree with you, and Christian...

    Do Americans feel like they’re main characters?

    The nationalistic ones do. They've always existed as this big, often toxic bloc of true believers who live, fight, and die by the flag because of political indoctrination and run away nationalism, but you can say that about almost any country. It's more of a "kind of person that lives in a...

    True, and I am trying to find time for more frequent updates, but my wordcount pays my bills, sometimes things just don't align.
