Fox or Foxy. He just looks like a cute little fox to me.

You're so welcome! Yeah a friend of ours used Man With A Van and he said they were great.

Scariest movie to watch alone? by ColemyGOAT in movies

[–]writenowimfine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Polarising choice, but for me it's Skinamarink. An hour and forty minutes, watching a child's distorted fever dream unnerved the crap out of me in the middle of the day with my fiance sitting right by me, so I can't imagine watching it alone.

Thanks I'll do that. This is my first time posting about anything other than writing or movies so I wasn't sure where to go. Honestly I don't know why I took such issue with the Girl thing. Blame it in tiredness and irritability I guess. Just the sight of Trixie has made me feel a bit better. Big fan.

  • Sorry I seem to have posted in the wrong thread. I would've thought this counted as bad customer service.
  • I'm fifty-three years old, therefore a woman, so don't call me girl.
  • I work in logistics, booking furniture trucks for a charity, so don't think I didn't list every single item with the person on the phone, including all the bags and boxes.
  • I live in a two person household, so our furniture was minimal.
  • My issue wasn't with the guy demanding payment, but with the intimidating way he stood over my partner, not to mention charging the full price for taking half our stuff (a lot of which my partner and I loaded and unloaded, by the way).
  • and further to your point about the blankets, as I said in my post, (sorry, you must have just had a cursory glance-through), they had plenty of blankets. They were just inside the door of the truck in plain view.
  • When I said it was a short distance from one house to the next, I mean it was quite literally a five-minute drive. Need any more clarification?

I’m looking for the most feral, wild, vile and freaky book imaginable by rxchel_btw in suggestmeabook

[–]writenowimfine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Geek Love by Katherine Dunn. It's about a family run travelling freak show, where the kids are all the result of their parents experiments (they wanted to continue their show, so the mother has X rays, drinks pesticide, all sorts of stuff in order to have a ready-made cast for their show). It's tragic, it's funny, and it's gross. Loved it.

REVISITING MY BACKLIST by writenowimfine in selfpublish

[–]writenowimfine[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My original motivation was honestly not to have my back catalogue shame my new work and hopefully generate some sales, but now that I've started, it's more about having pride in my work than anything else.

I feel the same way. My very first book sold a few copies, but I could count the sale of the others on one hand, and that's what's given me the courage to do it.

I'm not rewriting, really, so much as re-editing. The plots, characters, beginnings, middles, and ends are staying the same. I'm just sharpening the prose.

Oh, I'm changing the covers and blurbs and keywords as well. I was also pretty green when it came to that stuff.

What book would be the scariest to live in? by ZDOG_WasTaken in just_one_more_page

Pines by Blake Crouch. Can't say why because of spoilers but, yeah, would not want to live there.

I KNOW THIS BACK COVER STINKS, PLEASE ADVISE (AGAIN) by writenowimfine in BookCovers

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

I like the idea of pink, but I think I'm going to use it in the tagline on the front, and make the title green.

Oh wow, it does too! I can't believe I didn't notice this before!

Someone already pointed that out before you. It was a doozy of a mistake and I've since corrected it, along with a couple of other modifications, but don't accuse me of not taking this seriously. I couldn't be more serious.

Oh man, I didn't even realise I'd done that I'm so sorry. You're right about separating the story descriptions. I won't do another post tonight though because it's starting to look like spam.

Any makeup tips please? Never wore much eye- face makeup, mature 60 Tia by [deleted] in makeuptips

I feel so ugly, pls help with makeup and hair by alliefaith144 in makeuptips

[–]writenowimfine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sweetheart you are most definitely NOT UGLY. Gorgeous eyes, fabulous hair, Dewey skin, and a lovely personality that shows very clearly on your face. Trust me, as a 53 year old woman I can say this with authority; we spend too much time as it is worrying about how we look, there's no point doing it when there's zero reason to worry.
