Sporking self:part two

[erastes]

- If you describe someone as being slim, don't - when he takes his clothes off - suddenly start describing him as "stocky and barrel chested"
- Don't start a character using Aitches and then half way through the book start writing dialect. In fact, don't write dialect at all.
- Don't have "both boys talking" when one of them is a mute.
- Ten pages in two hours is NOT GOOD ENOUGH.

Arse? Meet Boot.

And this made me laugh - a lot

Ever wanted a map of the Ottoman Empire, 1566 to 1700  or  Remnants of the Roman Empire, circa 500 CE or Europe, 1848? then bookmark this: http://www.fsmitha.com/maps.html

And this will make sleveen laugh, at least!

Was he wearing black? Black is slimming, they say. Or maybe he was a master of disguise. ;)

I did that quiz and got Harry Potter. I did it again and got Yoda. Yuck.

So - it's official - you are an interfering know-it-all!

:)

When 900 years you reach, look as good, you will not!

Unless the guy has a very good tailor?

[erastes.livejournal.com]

Not likely in the 17th century! *kicks self again*

Corset?

[erastes.livejournal.com]

Nah- I've just changed his body shape. Much easier. Can't be arsed to go researching "did men wear corsets in 1645"at this late date. He probably wouldn't anyway - he's very poor.

According to the test, I'm Galadriel. Who did you get as a character? (I don't know the name of the character you have pictured.)

Good luck with the rewrite!

[rwday.livejournal.com]

I'd much rather be Galadriel than @(#*$ Harry Potter. *grumble, grumble*

[erastes.livejournal.com]

It's G'kar from Babylon Five.

I'll be surfacing in around about an hour - I've done so little today-been a lot of stuff needed changing and adding.

[mzcalypso.livejournal.com]

I got Galadriel, too, but "serenely?" um... no.

G'kar!

[sleveen.livejournal.com]

G'kar! My old friend! Where have you been, hm? Skulking around the station? Annoying people? ^__^

Kisses,
Londo.

...there is slash? (Not that it's unexpected or anything.)

Re: G'kar!

[erastes.livejournal.com]

Yes - she writes G'Kar/Londo. It's good too!!

:)

Re: G'kar!

[sleveen.livejournal.com]

Heavens, yes - I write G'Kar/Londo. :)

Re: G'kar!

[erastes.livejournal.com]

Me? You overblown balloon! You're the one with Annoying shaped into his very hair! Go away!

Re: G'kar!

[sleveen.livejournal.com]

Ahhhh G'kar! I see you have missed me, yes? Come, let us have a drink or twelve together, hm?

[lovefromgirl.livejournal.com]

d00d, you got G'Kar!

*has total crush on him*

*shut up, y'all*

[erastes.livejournal.com]

I admit being a bit attracted to him too. I always love a strong, tortured er... man?
