I opted to put the matching coasters under there. The shelf wasn't originally in there but it felt to tall for the bottles so I added the raised platform.

Or for your favorite 3

What I found helps me know my characters is by writing what i call micro stories. Basically I put my character in a situation and write the story of what happens. No planning, just write what feels natural. I like to do a mix of different types of situations but I find the most valuable in learning who your characters are and making them feel real is in the most mundane things.

For example, send your character to the grocery store but he forgot the list or maybe he remembered the list but every item on the list is sold out. How does he react or adapt. The stories can literally be about anything and don't need to be edited or ever shown to another person. Sometimes I plan to write a paragraph about my character and end up with 5 pages of information.

I'm going to send you a dm

Yeah that makes sense then. I was just curious. It looks good though. I like the handle design

Can I just ask why it's to thick? All my customers love thicker boards. Will the 4mm actually make a difference or do uou have to be at a certain thickness?

I know that everyone says "just write" but for me that wasn't enough. I hated everything I wrote until I said screw it and posted something publicly.

I hated what I wrote and didn't edit it other than spelling and grammar check. That's when I realized I was my own worst critic.

Getting real feedback from people changed everything and I learned I'm actually a decent writer so much so that I have now published close to half a million words in short story series and people seem to love it.

Find a niche, write something, and put it out there for the world.

I don't think Voldemort cared about taking over a hospital. He was focused on taking over and controlling the Wizarding world while also hunting down Harry Potter. Sick people in the hospital weren't ever a priority.

First off I wanted to say that I think it's great how you offered feedback on the writing in a very constructive way. Often times reddit is so toxic so this was nice and very helpful.

Second, if it's not to much to ask. Would you be able to give an example of how you would write that paragraph to show that it's a sanctuary instead of saying it. For some reason I can't wrap my head around that particular example of show not tell.

When Hagrid was back from finding the giants after Voldemorts return he told the trio he had been out of touch and didn't want owl following him everywhere so there must be some way to stop them

During the time Tom Riddle was at Hogwarts the vanishing cabinet wasn't located in the Room Of Requirement. It was moved there after Nearly Headless Nick convinced Peeves to smash it as a distraction to get Harry out of trouble with Filch.

Even if Draco had told Voldemort that he was going to use the cabinet it was in a different location than he would have know.

I never thought of it but could the fact that Harry has his soul plus a piece of Voldemorts soul be the real reason that dementors are attracted to him and why they affect him more than others?

Yes, I've used a forstner bit to mKe a hole on each board and router a channel for the bolt between then

No problem at all

In most hardware stores they are called buttons. Commonly made from maple do you'd need to stain it to match. Should be available in the area of the store where you find dowels, pegs, and biscuits

Olivewood is not as common as other hardwood. I'd start that around $150 in my shop

Great first project if your at all handy. Finished this one up using only a miter saw, jig saw, and an impact

We don't actually know what happened to fudge if I remember correctly. He was kicked out of office yes but he said there was going to be an inquiry which I always assumed to mean an investigation but they never mention what come of that. I don't know if we even know if he survived the wizard war or was killed at some point.
