    Scrapped Ideas, We All Have Them. How Cringe Are They?

    What some of us have had plots for various reasons in our head for as long as we have been reading. Which for some of us has been longer than even that 40+ years. I had a plot of 8 year old me I wrote when I was 8. Even I bought a notebook to write stories in with my bottle money (Money I got...

    Red flags for stories or authors.

    Asking for money and talking about your ailing family. Whilst, it may be true, I have noticed it enough from certain authors that it reads of falsehoods in my mind. (Note: this is not having/advertising a patron or Discord or Kofee; I am talking about blatant "give me money" I need it due to my...

    Your biggest lies

    My wife and I made sure we had at least one daughter, just so we could have an in house source for getting girl scout cookies. Kids are not expensive to raise.

    Preferred way to do a part 2

    I have seen both; a continuation of the new arc in the same "story" and as separate new novels. Either works as long as you can delineate them for others in away your readers would not get confused. For Continuation" Pros: Your readers never have to leave your storyline until it is ended and...

    The Morality of Accidents

    Grey area for me. Is it truly not their fault or are the negligent in some way? If they are a bus driver whose bus brakes blew out on his Bus and plowed into a class of kids walking across a cross walk. I would sympathize with them. But a bus driver who is driving a bus who knows his brakes are...

    Why does your military organization suck?

    Name me one and I will show you why you are wrong on this. I know of several "no" military countries and what you think may be only processional forces are not actually so. Also several others have gotten rid of their militaries because they rely on someone else's Military to protect them. Such...

    Why does your military organization suck?

    Which is fine and all. That is suckage for plot purposes. But has nothing to do with the underlaying rant of: "A Recruit to a military organization will first learn how to follow their rules and regulations. How to wear a uniform, how to salute and show respect to their peers and superiors...

    Why does your military organization suck?

    Fourth wing? I do not know that story, I think. Actually, yes they have been as formal, some worse than present day. We get the English word Decimation from the Roman military after all. The Condottieri had some very formal divisions of labor, much of our rank structure comes from the medieval...

    Why does your military organization suck?

    Dear Authors, I am a bit tired that something that has 1000s of years of history is constantly done wrong. A Military is a heavily armed organized force that applies said force towards the interests of an organization. To gain cohesiveness as a military. It will! Train all of its personnel...

    Favorite Halloween Candy?

    Candy corn is a rite of passage for Halloween. Once you have had some, you remember why you do not buy it for the rest of the year. Same with peeps and Easter. Though at least you can joust with peeps.

    Thoughts on trying out character clothing irl to see if it is practical

    I would like to point out, with the exception of fancier styles of clothes made specifically to show off. Most clothing has been designed to be as protective, movable and wearable as possible for their designed usage in modern times. Even with Armor you can see the progression of protective...
