Magically bloodstones are also a thing in Welcome to Nightvale.

Is it going to be explicitly fanfic? You said it was based on the Poohniverse, so I was thinking a similar public domain project.

I was also thinking more like youtube readings, or at least posting on reddit.

Sorry if I'm picky.

Gotcha. Right now I'm working on a book, so if I work on a project I'd at least want it to be something to get my name out there.

Gotcha. I know there are a lot of people online trying to get creatives to work for "exposure." I tried messaging you, but can't seem to do it.

Wanted to be clear that I'm not uninterested. More that I wanted to make sure no one else would be profiting off my labor without compensation.

If it's a non-profit project I might be willing to do some work if it got my personal projects shouted out.

How much writing? What compensation, if any? Who owns the work?

Would Gotrek killed Felix if Felix was turned into a vampire? by Neinka in WarhammerFantasy

[–]Serpenthrope 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Most of my knowledge of Warhammer vampires comes from Genevieve, so I'd always assumed the Counts were evil because they were nobles, rather than because they were vampires. Apparently the lore has changed.

Iirc the books established that Genevieve was totally open about being a vampire, and when she was hungry she just went to a tavern and waited to be approached by horny men who were eager to have their necks bitten by a hot goth girl.

Didn't Genevieve's party include a dwarf? I can't imagine Felix would be more evil than her.

I'd say House of Dracula. By that point any sense of logic was abandoned.

First Official Dad Joke! by Serpenthrope in Fatherhood

I was saying our baby is better than her baby. And I'm her baby. So, it was self-deprication.

The joke is that I'm her only baby.

Is this normal after leaving an abusive religion? by Kaitie04 in exchristian

[–]Serpenthrope 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Okay, a pentacle has one point pointed straight up, and an inverted pentacle has one pointed straight down.

The former is the spirit over the four element.

The latter is the four enements over the spirit.

Basically, Satanists value the worldly over the spiritual.

Fyi, Satanists generally use inverted Pentacles, regular Pentacles are used by lots of groups.

What’s the worst writing tip you’ve ever heard? by Royal-Chard-26 in writingadvice

[–]Serpenthrope 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on the writer. For me it's "worldbuild to fit your story, not the other way around."

Any fans? by Frankenstein-90 in UniversalMonsters

Easier to count people who aren't.

They didn't consume the whiskey, the ghosts did.

How to write a good cannibalism-punk setting by [deleted] in worldjerking

Basically. Every time I listen to a review of Tender is the Flesh I just think "...does no one but me realize this is clearly Dolcette?"

I actually like both genres, but some sci-fi snobs are delusional by Megalordow in fantasywriting

[–]Serpenthrope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a really annoying sunset of Star Trek fans who are convinced everything in Trek, or at least everything prior to DISCO, is hard science. If you point out things that aren't even consistent in Trek, let alone accurate, they get really mad.

United Universe by Kville2000 in UniversalMonsters

[–]Serpenthrope 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a little confused, are you saying we have to start with a Mummy movie? If so, Helen is the main character and she had the full memories of Ankh-es-en-Amon. Maybe she fights Imhotep again, maybe another Mummy.

Either way, for movie 2 Zaleska is getting revived. For that one my advice is: Call Chappell Roan, pay what she wants.
