    Few men I have met did not change their beliefs in the face of death, particularly that of those we hold dear, and when worn down by pain and a lack of rest. I am not one of them.

    Avoid conflict. Many people will not realize that their actions go against their beliefs. And many "beliefs" are less rigid than they appear, lacking in depth. Some atheists pray to God in a crisis and some men of religion fear death. With more data it is easier to find these inconsistencies...

    It is easier to change behavior. There are many things and actions people do not hold strong beliefs about. You change people's behavior first. Then their beliefs usually follow.

    There shouldn't be any flowers in pu'er. Was it flavored somehow? How did you brew it? Jasmine is scented green tea, so it should not taste anything like a dark tea like pu'er.

    @NotaNuffian Tieguanyin is a variety of Oolong, so there is nothing wrong there. Is it a light roast (Qing-XiangXing)? For contrast try a more heavily roasted Oolong (Nong- or Yun-XiangXing).

    Read a draft from an online mate while back. They had named their characters "Noon Induh" & "Raitum Induh". I had to read them aloud several times before I got it. Then I went back and discovered "Yin Seine", "Phaku Yew" & "Dame Idyot".

    What's your reason for not writing LitRPG fiction?

    I am usually too drunk, too tired, or too inspired to keep track of the numbers. While there are, I believe, two prompts featuring a "system" with floaty blue boxes in the large disorderly drawer for book ideas, they are both too uninspired to be taken seriously and too drudgerous to be written...

    Hello, we like money (Now taking story commissions)

    I have never done so for fanfiction, but I know a bit about how this can be handled for original works. On freelance platforms such as reedsy, fiverr, upwork, and scripted, you sign all requested rights over to the buyer. For example, on fiverr this could be as little as non-commercial usage...

    Yet comparison is foolish in itself. It speaks of undue pride and an inflated ego, both of which I clearly possess. My sense of self-importance remains undimished. Guanoff, if some English man can pen such beauty, where are you?

    I have filled many pages, yet all I have written must be but a few pitiful sand towers, barely making a castle. All my life my literary pursuits remain confined to the sandbox: I remain a toddler excited to discover water makes sand stick. In depth and substance, what is there to compare?

    Might I bother you for some new novel recommendations, Comrade? Working nights, and I finished the one you gave last time and I cannot seem to pick anything good. My dictionary is gathering dust.
