    Going through some rough times currently, so probably won't be around (not that I have been for a while anyway). If anyone needs anything, just send me a message - the email notification will bring me back. Stay awesome, everyone.

    Camp NaNo

    I assume you just click that you don't want to be in a cabin, save those preferences, then reselect the preferences you want. As there's no longer any camp running, I'm not sure whether they'll be sorting people into cabins until a little closer to August. Though I'm not sure on that. (Although...

    Does the country you live in matters for Amazon Kindle?

    I'm not sure if it's the only way, but someone I know here in Australia had to make a bank account in the US in order to receive payment. Then with the conversions to get the money into an account here, he loses most of it. Most people I know who aren't in America put their books up on...

    If A Book is Written in the Woods, will Bears Read It?

    Maybe a list of 'do not do this' would be helpful, also. I can't stand it when random authors I've never read (or met or even heard of) try to add me as a friend on GoodReads. It feels incredibly pushy. On the other hand, I like seeing authors casually participating on book clubs on...

    Texting

    I use proper grammar and spelling while texting, and rarely talk to those who don't. In fact, I think my aunt is the only one who abbreviates things even slightly, as she's on an older phone with a character limit.

    Ready Player One

    Who's read it? So incredibly geeky - not entirely fantasy (more science fiction), but an incredible number of references to everything we know and love. Ready Player One by Ernest Cline - Reviews, Discussion, Bookclubs, Lists Especially excellent for those who grew up playing video games...

    Legend of Korra, anyone?

    Honestly? I was incredibly disappointed by it. She didn't do anything yet her problems were solved easily. The build up to General Iroh II was pointless. Though I could just be grumpy over only getting four hours sleep this past week and I'm grumpy anyhow.

    A Game of Thrones - Discussion Post! Chapters 1-13 (through Tyrian 2) Only Reminder of where we are in the story: The Starks: Eddard accepted Robert's request for him to be the new Hand to the King. Shortly after Catelyn receives a letter from her sister, Lysa saying that she thinks the...

    Illness in the family, probably a death on Friday. Might be lurking on and off, but having trouble being social.

    How do I download a picture for my avatar?

    You go to 'Settings', and then 'Edit Avatar' from the list of options to the left. Then you can either use a url from an image online, or upload an image that's saved on your computer somewhere. Or you can pick one of the pre-uploaded avatars that are listed below that option. Hope that...

    Marmite -love it or hate it.

    It's very salty, and very savoury. I honestly can't imagine having sweet things, like honey or jam, on bread - much less toast.

    Marmite -love it or hate it.

    Dislike it. Vegemite is far more superior.

    I Write Like...

    That IS hilarious, Phil. I wouldn't really trust that site. I did one chapter of my work there one week, then did the exact same chapter again a week later, and got different results. First time I got Ernest Hemingway, then HP Lovecraft. Having read their work, I honestly can't see how the...

    Do you read anything else besides fantasy?

    Same as Steerpike, I read anything, as long as it's well written. All I need is a recommendation - and it helps if I've already established similar reading habits as whoever is recommending. Though I also review books for publishers. Generally I get to pick which books I review, but at times...

    Use of Proper Spelling and Grammar

    I think the wiggly lines you're seeing are there through the internet browser you're using, ALB - as far as I know, this forum doesn't have anything currently installed. Though I could be wrong - Black Dragon?
