Well... a glossary is for listing and defining terms, like for if a book had unique words within it's world. That's not a character list. A character list (or dramatis personae) is where the characters get listed, usually by their association, such as house or nationality, depending on the scope...

Up until recently I was working with a special needs adult, and that meant being out in public a lot. Libraries, McDonald's, bookstores, the mall, parks. And I would use every spare moment to write, even if it just meant jotting a few lines in between walking. Also did a lot of homework that...

I also prefer to weave it into the narrative, usually as the POV character notices it. I also only include the details that character notices, as they notice it or as it becomes relevant in some way. I dont usually like when a character is introduced purely by their physical description. I want...

I've been kind of fixated on Halestorm's Into The Wild Life album for a few weeks, but specifically this song right now.

After watching Bethesda’s unveiling of Fallout 4, I mentioned to a friend how cool it looked, but that I hadn’t played any of the Fallout games. That friend bought me Fallout: New Vegas, and I have been fully enraptured by it. Im having a lot of fun with the whole apocalyptic cowboy thing...

I watched it Friday night, and quite thoroughly enjoyed the movie (except for some bros in the row in front of me, *sigh*). The dialogue was awesome, the action was kickass, and there are too many characters to like that I have trouble picking a favorite. Loved James Spader as Ultron's voice...

Am definitely up for this. Hoping to get my ass back into gear for writing again, lol. Taking the story from NaNo and ripping it apart, outlining and replanning, and going to put it back together. At least that is the goal. I'm SM-Dreamer on there, too.

I was having the same problem, but not just on my computer but my work computer. I assumed it was the site or server at that point. Glad to see that things have cleared up.

I've been summoned, spent the day waiting to see whether I would be needed or not. Was rather boring, and I spent the time finishing up the book I was reading (I don't recall which it was, lol). Ended up not being needed, though I wouldn't have minded doing it.

That might make for an interesting challenge :P I have a deck, the Shadowscapes one. I love the artwork on it, and I am fascinated by the symbolism. I don't believe in it, but I find it useful for storytelling - the journey of the major arcana, and the various meanings. I also want to...

I'm used mystic in the past. (n. a person who claims to attain, or believes in the possibility of attaining, insight into mysteries transcending ordinary human knowledge)

That is actually really cool. I agree with you that there are innumerable ways to have a pair unite themselves, and that there only needs to be a physical representation if it matters in their society. Usually, as long as people have agreed to be together, and are living together, then they're a...

I have a lot of draconic creatures in my world, and most of what they do is due to magic. True dragons were once domesticated by elves for thousands of years, so I just go by the theory of magical tampering. They are products of magic, and they are magic, thus, they exist in the way that they do.

It also wouldn't just be a fear of death, but a fear of how one dies. Some might also fear that they hadn't finished whatever they wanted, or they might enjoy their life too much. There would still be fear, because that fear is the desire to live. As for the gods, while they might be known to...

See, that's one of those things where it depends. I love being immersed in the world - both during reading and after. I like being able to have the language and letters available to me. Not as something I have to have in order to read and understand the story, but certainly as a bonus that...
