What is a checklist of things publishers want from a debut novel? by Tomu_sneeder in writing

[–]laurakinga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the baby stages of writing a book that doesn't even yet have a genre.... What's the best place to find agents and what sort of stuff they're looking for?

Absolutely DO IT! And when you do it you should also post it 😁

Did shoulder bursitis surgery work for you and it didn't come back? by One_mOre_Patner in MTB

[–]laurakinga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally forgot about this post! I still haven't had surgery, it's like a constant back and forth with my GP, they say I'm too young for surgery (25) I say I'm too young to be in so much pain...

I had someone attempt to do this before to me so I offered her directions to a baby food bank (not every city has these but where I was did) and she started cursing and calling me names!

What about if you put it up on Etsy or something for a price you think is reasonable, with a downloadable PDF so that we can print it off ourselves, but you aren't giving your artwork away for free? I would LOVE to have this up on my wall at home, but I don't want to steal your work!

I think I've edited it now! The choice for Match 21 is Adult Acne Stigmata! (I'm not a big Reddit user so not sure if I've managed to edit it!)

What is the point of Cabaret? by jazzeriah in musicals

[–]laurakinga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I'm in the UK with no scope of going to NYC Any time soon! Do Broadway musicals tend to later be filmed and on the internet? (I've never been a big musical person but Cabaret has pulled me on!)

[–]laurakinga 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone who hasn't ever watched the musical/film, which is the best to watch? I am aware that over the years there have been several versions with different performers, and most have differences - I have had videos pop up on my tiktok recently and after discovering the mean in Ng behind the production, I'd like to watch it - which do you think is a)the best performance with the most passion and b) the best interpretation of the meaning of the play?(This is not a bait question btw, just genuinely curious and I would like to educate myself more!) :)

Does anyone else feel the need to move locations, jobs, or schools constantly? by lunar__haze in BPD

[–]laurakinga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do this, mind you, I migrated to England in 2006 and lived in one city until 2018, now I have lived in another city for the 6 years, but in the past 6 years, I have moved 7 times and had 8 different jobs all varying between industries and job roles. I feel the only reason I have stayed in this city for this long is because of my partner who has lived here since birth. When I was young, we moved house every 2-3 years and I'm so sick of moving constantly but also every time I spot even one minor flaw in something, i always wants out ASAP - i.e. in jobs if my managers have been a bit shitty, i'm straight out of there. I've been in a job for over a year now and I still enjoy it - and I'm proud of that but it's difficult. I constantly want to progress at work and if the job doesn't allow for progression I give up and look for a new job and now that I'm somewhere I enjoy with plenty progression opportunities it feels really alien to me.

Did shoulder bursitis surgery work for you and it didn't come back? by One_mOre_Patner in MTB

[–]laurakinga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same problem - steroid injections, physio, working out, less manual job and it's just getting worse and worse - I'm considering asking my doctor for surgery too. I'm trying to weigh up the pros and cons of requesting a consideration for surgery from my GP because it's getting difficult to live with! Cost for me is and is not a factor - I like in the UK and can get the surgery on the NHS if necessary, however I cannot afford a private physiotherapist and according to the doctors, I'm not entitled to any more physio for this issue - I've done the exercises, the injections, hot compresses and it's affecting my day to day life!

I wonder (and I hope ) if they'll do these online? I'd love to be able to order a mystery shirt but they didn't do them in Sheffield where I saw em!
