    The Differences between the US and UK

    Uh, no. I was trying to get you guys to see things from my point-of-view. You wanna know another to figure out if Tolkien is a bad writer: Stop simply worshipping him, read works by other authors in the genre, and compare the works based on the story flows or if it was overdetailed. - - - Post...

    The Differences between the US and UK

    Yes, because being b!tched at online for, like, the last five pages simply for having an unpopular is clearly the definition winning -_- I have no idea if anyone in this thread has tried their hand at writing, but no one else has mentioned having any experience writing or compared their own...

    The Differences between the US and UK

    You have the nerve to sit there and call me stupid then accuse me of being a jerk? The reason I responded with such hostility yesterday is because I had negative mood swing and missed taking my antidepressant on time, and I felt that he was being rude. If he had posted just 15 minutes later...

    The Differences between the US and UK

    Yes, you can. You totally can. Just look at the Eragon series. Seriously, though, as a writer I can tell you that there is a right and wrong way to write everything. I can also tell you that Fantasy is one of the hardest genres to break into as a writer because it is so easy to write badly. And...

    The Differences between the US and UK

    Okay, yeah, but here's the thing about fantasy: You're not supposed to the world build in the actual novel. That's what the planning process is for. That is something fantasy writers have to learned from Tolkien because he did the exact opposite. It's, like, he published his rough draft and...

    Over thinking things?

    This happens to me, too. You have insomnia caused by anxiety, and if it's anywhere near as bad as mine is, you're gonna need to ask your parents or doctor to put you on medicative, non addictive sleeping pills, and look into therapy to help with your anxiety. I tried going without those things...

    Your Fictional crush

    I just wanted to say that I'm sorry if I ruined the thread for anyone. I didn't think I was involved in some kind of "flame war". I just thought it was merely a friendly debate, relevant to the contents of the thread.

    The Differences between the US and UK

    I disagree, first of all. Second of all, the people said Tolkien was a terrible writer because he is. His work drags on and on and on -- in one book he wrote, like, 50 pages just about singing! My husband is a HUGE nerd, and he LOVES LtoR, but he couldn't finish the books because they dragged so...

    Your Fictional crush

    Oh, okay. Yeah, anime is pretty overdramatic, I guess. Don't worry. You won't see any hate from me. I've been crushing on mutated turtles since I was 16, so I try to avoid judgement. FYI before anyone starts judging me on this: People with borderline personalities -- IE me -- are able to feel...

    Anime!

    There's anime of that? Is it on Crunchyroll? My husband collects the manga, and he's obsessed with it.

    Your Fictional crush

    What the heck kinda anime you watching? O.o

    Your Fictional crush

    No, it's just I've never met a guy who's had one, and I feel like girls read more than guys do. But it's probably just that they read much different literature.

    What's Bothering You?

    Why do I have to explain it to you? Why must you have a reason for everything? Why do you have to demonize everything that you don't fully understand? And, yet, I already know the answer: "Mankind will always fear what it doesn't understand." -X-Men
