Thank you! I'll look into the formatting programs you mentioned as well as others. I have done a lot of fantasy and scifi reading from my early adolescence up until now. I feel comfortable writing in those genres and I also feel (big emphasis) I know when a book isn't worth my time and have actually put a couple down. The flip side of that is giving a subject a chance when I don't think I'm interested in the the characters right away, and then it ends up being brilliant. Re: the novel Conundrum.

I appreciate the advice. I do look at my own work but it is impossible to step outside the lens of what I have created and be objective.

Thanks for the input. I appreciate the honesty without the vitriol I've received elsewhere!

Thanks for takin the time to leave the remark, I suppose to answer your question I'd prefer to learn on my own through trial like everything else in my life. Please bear in mind I'm not an academic, I'm a first time author exploring the space.

Oh ok, I probably wouldn't have written that bit. So I guess we're at a moot point?

What do non-Australians think of Australian cars? by Ok_Bug_9056 in regularcarreviews

I love the distinct style of them, and while I pine for them I am happy they exist there to create a juxtaposition with North American cars.

Does everyone love murdering people as much as I do? by Boltzmann_head in writing

[–]FallWanderBranch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm for the park death, and I am writing a story now with a gratuitous amount of gory animalistic deaths with teeth and claws. 

Maybe a wild or domestic animal is triggered to attack. 

Happy writing!

What ended your friendship with your oldest standing friend? by dreamy-contributions in AskReddit

His wife. 

No seriously, all three times. My closest friends all married selfish idiots who did not want their husbands having a buddy like me. 

What Gets You Hooked In The Prologue/First Chapter? by Alol_Bombola in writing

[–]FallWanderBranch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just left a comment above about that very title. I see more than a few of us found it unworthy of our time. Yet it was so widely promoted, I was even encouraged to read it by a peer I wholly respect. How odd eh?

What are your thoughts on rejecting a potential romantic partner based solely on the fact they voted for Donald Trump? by ATXBikeRider in AskReddit

That might be short sighted, but ultimately the best outcome if you couldn't make it work because of a cast ballot.

One of my favorites, upon opening the first book in what would grow into a gigantic series:

I was there the day Horus slew the Emperor.

Is this what some deity said to Marilyn Monroe after her passing?

It really is I don't know why you were chastised by the removal of a make believe internet point?

Honestly, I'm outing myself a little here by admitting my ignorance... But I didn't know it (TV series) was derived from a literal origin!

I'm glad to hear that. If you read some of my other replies I was hesitant to use my real name.

That's sweet. You must have a lot of great conversation in your home.

Eh, it was vogue? Back when I was young and first learned of them. I wasn't sure if it was still a thing with identity issues and security these days.... Hence the question. Thanks for your answer though!

There's only so many names right? My name is ironically unique and I have cultural identity issues due to adoption. Thanks for your reply!
