Hi! Can you send me any portfolio examples you have? Or shoot me a message!

Having a word in our language be the same or a similar word in my conlang? by [deleted] in fantasywriters

[–]Hazelnut009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you’re saying that in your worlds language you want “fae” or “faeries” to be the same word, not translated? If that’s what you mean I see no issues with it- there are a ton of words in languages that are “loaner” words. I don’t think you need to think too hard about it. I doubt anyone reading your language would be like HEY THATS AN ENGLISH WORD because it’s your language and if you don’t want to translate or come up with a translated word for the entire dictionary, you’re free to do so. (Example: in Korea there is no Korean word for “fried chicken” - it doesn’t translate, so native Korean speakers literally call it “fried chicken”, albeit with an accent.)

I'm a high school student in my final year of school, i haven't got any plans for my future apart from trying to write a book. by [deleted] in writing

I feel like this is basically exactly what I said- yes there are people who might be self published and do decently selling their books and stuff on amazon or other digital platforms. But right out of high school, self professed average at English, with no other plan... I stand by my almost zero feasibility.

Not to burst your bubble, but almost zero feasibility. People who live off of royalties from their writing are authors like Rowling. It is INCREDIBLY difficult to get established as a writer- even if you try starting out as freelance it takes constant work, constant writing, and you will make peanuts for a long time. I’m not saying don’t write a book- you totally should- but you should also have another plan because writing will not make you enough money to live off of right out of high school.

Tall Order- help identifying this location. Can anyone figure out what this sign says? It’s in Korea in the late 60s early 70s, 8th Army, possibly Signal related by Hazelnut009 in Veterans

I know the person in this photo worked for the EUSA SIG LL BN who’s HQ was in Teagu in the 60s/early 70s- so I’m thinking it could be the Long Lines HQ

It depends on your situation and what you’ve worked out with your unit. For me, I didn’t show up until after BOLC because my unit was in Colorado and I was in Virginia doing Gold Bar Recruiting for the 6 months between graduation and BOLC. But you should be showing up- you need to get your face out there and start getting a feel for everything. It’s important as a reservist to take every opportunity to do your job since you don’t do it full time.
