    Contest result--Writers of the Future

    Three months is a long time with a submission, you usually don’t get a reply till at least six months to a year with publishers. They sit around all day, being masters of the universe. Then they get out the dictionary, and thesaurus. I have submitted to magazines, with not much luck. I have a...

    Is Microsoft Word a great tool to write an encyclopedia about a fictional world?

    OneNote would be perfect. I make lots of amendments in my writing, and go through old useless information because everything is updated. There is a lot of room for improvement, in my technique however, because I am always evolving. The pace is up to you, but it would be good to make hyperlinks...

    Book Recommendations

    My daughter likes books about dragons and unicorns and hampters. I got her some David Walliams books, which are movies now.

    Seduction attempts so bad that it wraps around and becomes adorable....

    What Makes a good Stoic character good?

    There are plenty of quote unquote stoic traits… Basically, it’s up to you, but some characters really resonate with particularity, good or bad. There are legendary traits, in many tales, but a lackadaisical trait, is more stoic.

    Greetings, one and all!

    How do I handle using paraphrasing tools?

    It’s not the end of the world. But it is the beginning of a different career. There are editors, who do the job for you, and grammar isn’t an exact science. Story structure is more like pointing out flaws more than world building or anything else. Sentence structure is about a comma denoting a...

    Heaven is Falling

    Sounds like JK Rowling channeling a South Park episode.
