    A Butter Poll

    I usually use a glug of olive oil, and then let a wedge of butter melt into it before adding the meat.

    What's the smallest thing that could change your entire storyline?

    Yep, I'd probably call it character driven queer fantasy, but there's a lot of fairytale motiffs baked in by design :)

    What's the smallest thing that could change your entire storyline?

    At one point a couple of stray cardamom pods fell into my protagonist's backpack. Thus began a chain of events that ultimately saved the kingdom.

    Wisdom of the forum, answer my plea, what does a goth-girl produce on a farm?

    Free-range corvids, kept on a diet of sorrow and lament. Sent to slaughter without ever knowing a single moment of joy or happiness. They're finger-lickin' good :)

    What's up with the downvoting?

    Totally, I'd be on board with having some sort of super-like as well, but I'd defer to those better informed on how to weigh it against the 'being nice' issue. Maybe a 'favorite' toggle that automatically added the story to your favorites folder and took you through to a little comment wall to...

    What's up with the downvoting?

    Yeah theres issue with grade inflation as well. Most people are going to click a 5* as a way of saying 'nice job', so anything below that feels a bit disheartening or mean. So typically you end up with 90% 5* ratings anyway, and the overall score of your story is defined mostly by how many...

    Writing Prompt the chosen idiot
