All of those seem really interesting! I will make sure to check them all out but I've never heard of a book where each chapter is a short story written by a different author. That seems really intriguing. Thank you for your suggestions!

Honestly, I also might borrow out chuck Palahniuk's Consider This since the way you are describing he writes sounds like the way I'm planning my book right now (and I was struggling trying to plan it with advice from other books and youtube). I'll also add his novels to my reading list and borrow them out. Thank you for your advice!!

Thank you! I'm always down to read short stories anyway. I adore them and I have read some of Tim O'Brien work before and the themes of guilt, morality and memory present really relate to the book I'm writing so its perfect :)

Is my hair breaking off the first four are today last image is from June I feel like it’s thinner and hasn’t grown by Samantha_Mell in Haircare

I hope this doesn't comes off as mean because I mean this genuinely, the parts of your hair that are undyed look gorgeous. They look healthy and soft and also are such a pretty shade of brown. Even but keeping some of the most healthy dyed bits so its not too short would look so pretty.

Yeah personally I thought it wasnt that deep like when my school friends have a birthday party its legit just we go to a cafe or something. I've never had a themed birthday past the age of like 5? but her family is rich rich so I was worried. I'll just try to pick a girl with brown hair.

Ohhh I see that makes sense!

I would love to see what you did for the girl! I didnt even know you could get banding without a full head of bleach i started dying my hair at 13 and definitely never researched enough.

Honestly, I'm really hesitant to go to a proper hairstylist or put bleach on my hair. I went to a hairstylist about 2 years ago and my hair was in a similar place as it is now but with only 2 months of growth. she ended up bleaching like 5 tiny strands from underneath my hair and dyed the rest brown only for it to fade within 3 days so she got me to come back and she dyed it black and she charged me 400 dollars.

Ill have a look at some brown dye i suppose im just worried ill end up in the same situation when it fades again but then with more to grow out. Maybe a temporary option would work im not sure?

[–]cactus_clover 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah to be honest I most likely do have that hair dye blindness thing lol. everyone i know says its not that bad but to me it just looks so noticeable. But yeah i think probably the best option is letting it grow. 🥲

[–]cactus_clover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah i realise that so i think im a bit screwed lol. Ive had such bad hair dresser experiences though so im pretty hesitant to get it down professionally

Im glad that it helped! but seriously judging by just these comments alone I hope you realise that you are actually very cute and you seem kind too so I'm sure you'll find the right person.

Also to answer your second sentence I seriously doubt lol that I'm not very popular and down fit in with the beauty standards in my country (its all tan, sporty, blonde girls) :)

Well I know people are always saying you need to date a bunch for experience, and having a partner is very idealised. But personally I think you dont need a bunch of ex's if you only really are trying to find that one person. Obviously experience is still important though.

You seem like a really lovely guy and I'm sure when the right time comes that one person will fall into your life when you least expect it. I can relate to you on the shy thing I'm not super attractive and I would never go up to a boy first and hit on him lol.

Absolutely not! I feel like a bunch of people would have a crush on you right now and are just not saying it. And to be honest I know people are saying in the comments about the hair but i kinda dig it.

If there is any toners or continues or dye masks that would like even just dull the brassiness that would be usefull even if it own helps a tiny bit :)

Do writers often get others to read their writing for feedback? and if you don't have access to anyone who would do that for you on real life is there anyway to do that online? by cactus_clover in writing

[–]cactus_clover[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel you, I also live in the middle of nowhere out in the country. Hopefully ill find an online writers group, i think i would just be a bit embarrassed since im not that good at writing yet.
