    I need some opinions...

    Um...realize that a lot of people have no mind of their own, even if they fake it well. So, when they find someone who shows potential at having some sort of skill or talent that sets them off the grid of normalcy, it makes them uncomfortable and try to dull their shine to make themselves...

    question about descriptions :-)

    I find that I share the problem in over describing things (emotions, state of mind, facial expresions, maneurisms) but lack describing some others (scenery and other settings) when I write.

    building a native american culture form scratch

    I am going to be using a native american tribe as part for my fiction manuscript but I cant find what I am looking for in real histories from my research. I didn't want to desecrate one by just adding on to their culture and be a hated author just using them for my own benefit. So I want to...
