    I know this feeling, reason why I became more cynical and just enjoy trolling instead. LOL.

    I should clarify... on Youtube, facebook and twitter (though I hardly spend much time on the latter two). :p . Not here, i'd be banned already if I were. :superlaugh:

    I am a writer, and have shared some of my stuff already (to build my cred) :p .

    By I am a cynical-facetious bastard. :p

    TMW... you calculate the passing of time in your book and realize that your children characters are not so child-like anymore. LOL.

    Mostly, pre-teens. One of the children Characters is suppose to be 9, I think he's okay. I gave him some maturity as a young boy. It matters more the Prologue of the next book, where they are mid to late teens, one of them is 21 (the 9 year old is 17 at this time) then the first part of the new book, where they are all young men. where they are in their early twenties with just one of them being 18. But the MC for this book is the real important one, whom in the prologue is 11 and 15 when the story starts.

    This also means some of these young men (not the MC clearly, who is a young lady), have wives and kiddos

    It is normal. It is everybody else who is innormal, those boy-men [shudder]. I made my point, beatniks.

    TMW.... your lore allows you to break some rules, and introduce some instruments that wouldn't exist in a normal timeline yet.

    Also Romanesque Empress with a saxophone and her daughter with a violin!!

    Not the most consonant pairing of instruments there, but I suppose they could make it work.

    TMW you look yourself in the mirror after taking a shower and see an indication of a four pack. Coughing has got its perks.

    In Greece until the end of seventies you could buy amphetamine pills without prescription. My grandmother had the time of her life. I only got a cold.

    TMW the power goes out and you - the atheist - start looking for your religious day pass in order to pray that your computer boots back up with a recovered copy of your work.

    Yay! It did. :bigcool:

    I love lettuce! The trick for me would be tricking my tummy into thinking those are real calories. ;)

    Unless that thing was countersigned by Dawkins and Hitchens (yes, they self-appointed, did you expect them to be anointed by God) I'ma need to report you to the High Council.

    I think I have an entry in the Confessions thread about the fact that I like iceberg lettuce. As PJ O'Rourke said, any kind of lettuce that you can't throw from third base to home is too complicated.

    TMW you find out that Mandy Patinkin played the lead alien in Alien Nation (1988) (District 9 Part 0, for you younger people) and have a sudden urge to watch the movie again.
