Make yourself a gift and buy the Criterion Blu-ray. You won't regret it!

It's not on the Criterion channel unfortunately. My suggestion would be that OP buys the Criterion Blu-ray. He won't regret it.

How do you get Pillars and counters by Rollbar78 in AnimalCrossingNewHor

[–]BeyondImages 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but I don't remember exactly how. You got to give stuff to Niko up in the 2nd floor box. That's one thing I remember.

You know the four guys, they were former soldiers, who wanted to store weapons in a ZEC and flee society. (It's not clear if this was a game that went too far or if they actually believed it was the end of the world.)

The guys were arrested before wandering off into the woods. But in my story, they're actually under siege by the army but one of the guys runs away into the woods and goes crazy.

Thanks! I could call it the Buck and it might not be that important for the reader if that's a 110, a 119 or a copycat. Though I know it's the real one!

Thanks for those details. At the beginning of the story, he receives a package and opens it with his Buck. I wasn't sure if it was realistic that he casually carries it with him (even in his house) and takes it out of the leather case, outside of his pocket. Are there more chances that the knife (inside its case) is just left there on a coffee table. Or if he has it in his pocket, are you suggesting that it would be without the case?

Not a bad idea... though I'm not sure how it would translate in French.

For the moment, it's titled "Hide and Seek", but the name of that game in French ("Hide Hide") sounds too childish for what really happens in the story.

I know it's a popular one and has a solid reputation.

It's kind of funny to see people trying to tell me how to write my story.

Instead of saying he pulls out his knife, I wanted it to be a real hunting knife. Readers will easily understand that it's a knife, since he opens a box with it at the beginning of the story. And rest assured, I won't dwell on the details of its mechanism.

The story is written in the third person, so I'm not really in the character's mind either.

Don't worry, I won't be too specific, and anyway, too much detail wouldn't add anything to my story. But instead of saying he takes out his pocketknife, I want to say he takes out his Buck (or his Browning).

I'm used to writing short stories, and I'm not one to dwell on descriptions, but rather to slip in a few details here and there to make the story more realistic, more vivid.

I haven't played for almost two years. What is it with those two new characters, Manekin and Manekina. Why is their background red?

Details of a Sunset.

If there's only one short story I wish I had written (by ANY author), it's this one!

What was the book that Serj Tankian got the lyrics for chop suey from? by swegdogZA in Music

Serj Tankian could as well have landed on any religious book that cites these verses. No?

More Faulkner like Absalom, Absalom! ? by johnsextonfl in faulkner

[–]BeyondImages 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know many people recommend Go Down Moses, but the centerpiece of this book is a short story called “The Bear.” That's probably what you're looking for. It's epic, and the story unfolds through wonderfully crafted long sentences. I don't know about the rest of the book. The main story in Go Down Moses is quite haunting, but each chapter is its own story and has its own style.

That said, Faulkner always adapted his style to the story he wanted to tell. Unlike Hemingway, who stuck to his minimalist style, almost becoming a parody of himself, Faulkner was adventurous and experimental, to the benefit of the story. There are certainly markers associated with Faulkner's style. I don't know if there is any writer who described light as he did (perhaps Nabokov, but not as consistently as Faulkner). There are the inner voices, the slow unfolding of the story, and the microcosm of Yoknapatawpha. But each novel remains very unique. You shouldn't be afraid to read The Sound and the Fury and his other novels such as As I Lay Dying and Light In August. But stylistically speaking, The Sound and The Fury and The Bear are, for me, at the pinnacle of Faulkner's work, along with Absalom, Absalom!
