If my work doesn't keep people up at night too excited to sleep, then I want them kept awake too angry to sleep. Nothing worse than a 'meh' three stars. Except a 1-star review with no accompanying vitriol. But one thing you learn as a writer is that you won't get far with a fragile ego. I...

That's two white guys playing a standard Western rock song, wtf. edit: may have found some.

WTF! Can't you channel that energy and determination into IDK, world domination or summat? I mean there's still a few countries without a lunatic for a president! On the other hand, you go girl.

Exactly that. Like tubular bells 3 but Asian flavoured. Or Antti Martikainen. Got a couple of tunes but that's a band, I am hoping for an actual composer or two.

I'll put it another way oh annoying ones, Chinese/Japanese epic instrumental music please?

Basically, I want some music like an Asian Mike Oldfield. Is there any!?

Drink tea like a civilised person. Heathen coffee quaffers, snort! I myself have 3 cups of black coffee before 2pm. I need to deal with tossers in my job. After that, I can revert to being my usual genteel self by drinking tea.

What about oaken barrels. Or just keep it simple. Bullish and heavy-set is fine

I'll read whatever if that isn't the only thing selling it. You have to have readable and relatable characters. Their sexuality doesn't bother me but if that's the only thing you're selling it on it's a nope. Would get boring pretty fast if that's all it is.

Real kick ass women existed. Empress Matilda, both Queen Eleanors, most of the Tudor queen, Catherine the Great, and a whole host of other lasses who wanted more from life than to spend their day doing embroidery and speculating on whether Sir Wassname actually fills his enormous codpiece...

Well also, if you've destroyed a world, who the fuck are you going to justify it to!?

Move on. I got dumped by some little penis who met someone else online, chatted her up behind my back and got her to pay for his air fare to the US to see her, and I found out on the day he was going. Then I found out he'd been banging a barmaid before then, while telling me he was at work...

You made a mistake and created a lifeform that put ham and pineapple on the same pizza.

I believe there was a porn spin-off, Harry Botter and the Philosopher's Bone....damn sight more fun than the real thing. Or maybe that was the real thing.

meh we do this every year on boxing day, in the north sea.

Chrysoprase and Detritus want a word

Casual racism is a fact of life. Whenever someone is pissed off by someone else, they will pick on the most obvious characteristic about them to insult them with. Weight, skin colour, clothing/culture style...that's just human nature. Systemic or institutional racism is probably harder to...

He has an allowance, he's doing pretty well with it. Still doesn't stop him trying it on now and then. Not that often though, he learns fast :devilish: 'It's nice believing in a world where councils actually fix potholes with the money they extort from people, but this is the real world, and...

'Meanwhile, back in the real world...'.....usually used when a conversation about how things could be done better is about to be wound up. Meaning, it's unlikely we'd ever see the changes we want to. Or when my son wants a new Lego set 3 days before pay day and hasn't grasped that money doesn't...

Yes but I cut out all sugar in the week, and only eat sweets on weekend. I love really dark chocolate, milk candy, and jelly babies.
