palmary    adjective | PAL-muh-ree

Definition

: outstanding, best

 

 

It was the ancient Romans who first used palmarius to describe someone or something extraordinary. Palmarius literally translates as "deserving the palm." But what does that mean exactly? Was it inspired by palms of hands coming together in applause? That would be a good guess, but the direct inspiration for palmarius was the palm leaf given to a victor in a sports competition. That other palm—the one on the hand—is loosely related. The Romans thought the palm tree's leaves resembled an outstretched palm of the hand; they thus used their word palma for both meanings, just as we do with palm in English. Now, when we award a noun with the modifier palmary, it signifies that thing as the choicest among possible examples.

Thanks for the suggestion, Bro. It jumped out at me. Almost went with Ghost Writer.

What should I do? Too early for the brain to work for school.

I could find food. Not hungry, but haven't been for a few days.

 

pro tip, you can download free books from Amazon. YMMV.

Fairly good Gay Paranormal story. Deals mainly with Demons, but had an interesting twist to it. A Dreamspinner Press imprint. YMMV. But I enjoyed it.

Ok - I give up.   Young  Male/Male  sort of makes sense but I have no idea what the V stands for.  Vampire?  You said demons, not the same thing.

Your Mileage May Very. Meaning, you may not like it, so choose wisely.

I had to it look up, the other day, when I saw it used. A modern, and easier to write, that Latin phrase that I don't know how to spell, and the tablet's spell checker is useless, for Buyer Beware.

Do you mean "Caveat emptor"?

So, the model I use for my inspiration for Jeremy is a 20+ year old from Isreal. I've found the model, in several pictures, doing activities I wrote both in the story and my character notes for Jeremy. Such as doing Martial Arts, doing a form of Street Workout which includes gymnastics and acrobatics, and other things like riding a motorcycle, ice skating and riding a motorcycle. The guy has 53K followers on Instagram. Yes, I'm one of those 53K, so I can see any new pics that he might be in, that helps me get into Jeremy's mindset.

 

Long story short. I wrote into my outline for book four of the Tampa Chronicles, that Jeremy is spotted by a producer, while he's on Tampa's Riverwalk with Travis doing some Street Workout, and is offered a job to be in a music video that they are producing here in Tampa. I did this on Monday.

 

I logged into Instagram, and went through the models latest pics, and WHAM! The model released a link to a Music Video he's in for an Isreali singer.

 

I will shyte myself if I ever login and see him wearing a hockey jersey.

Just lucky. LOL.

Though, Kingdom Hearts II was about an Artist that what she drew came true... A writer writing stuff that comes true sounds like a cool story!
