That description applies to the entire movie. And, well, most movies these days. In other words, fight scenes are like any other scene. A...
Venus has 92 times the surface pressure as Earth, even though it's slightly smaller. You have to be 60km above the surface of Venus to experience...
I've been working on my novel for years. OK, I started a novel years ago and haven't worked on it much. I've had this general idea of the...
Can't edit my post. What I meant to say is that the eclipses could be every orbit, not every day. That could be as little as a few days or up...
That is a somewhat skewed view of the military and vets. I am a Marine Desert Storm vet, and have known countless other active duty and vets. It...
I don't know what your motivations are behind the size but why not just make it near earth size? That's the easiest way to get the gravity and...

I'm re-writing my opening scene. Again. I think from now on instead of saying I'm a writer I'll say I'm a re-writer. Wormtongue the Fantasy...
I do have made up swears in my world for a particular race. My main protagonist is fond of saying "pesht!" in situations where f**k! might be...
That thought is similar to something I came up with years ago. "The past never was, and the future never will be."
Time travel has not been proven to be physically impossible. But our current understanding strongly suggests that it is practically impossible....
Another aspect that I'm contemplating is the use of modern swear words vs. fantasy swear words. Clearly there is no absolute answer to this,...
Thanks to everyone who contributed to the discussion. I did write a new opening page, starting a bit earlier, with only two characters (although...
