  1. Well done, maybe now someone comes over, looking at all those yummy recipes which have already been posted here.
  2. Sorry. Now he doesn't love me anymore....
  3. Learning by doing. That's all I'm saying here. He didn't freak, that's surely is good sign for Zander.
  4. Looks good. Yum I'll skip the meat though.
  5. School is out in one and a half week, so much new to read. Who needs to go on vacation? One more on my already very long list...
  6. Lol. What he said.

    Myiege Ooookay, someone is confused. I see him right before my eyes, the poor pup. *laughs maniacally* Great start. Lunch break over.
  8. Today my muse and I visited Sicily with the help of Google images and the pics we took when we were there. To stay with the topic of the thread we drank espresso, listened to Italian music and had pasta for dinner. Truly inspiring, we got so much done.
  9. This is really a great story and I enjoyed every chapter. I reserved the weekend to finally read it and loathed every minute I couldn't. Well I had to eat... I liked the alternating between the now and the past, which provided the background to why Bay was such an idiot sometimes. Oh how I could relate to him, lol. The ending is perfect, the past is the past, no kitchy reconciliation with parents and old friends, it suits Bay's persona. Great job, wolfie.
  10. It's a natural phenomenon for any groups to exclude/ostracize the different because it's been seen as a threat. It often happens unintentionally in the beginning and sometimes they're even right. People do this, animals do this. It's one of the reasons for mobbing also. To overcome this 'natural reaction' you have to use your brain, actively see there is no threat, be open minded. How many people complain about being ostracized by a group, but do the same in their own group without noticing? When we use the word 'normal' what do we mean? Do we exclude someone by using this word? It's the small things we have to be careful of, like using normal or not normal around kids, if we want it to become better. And then there is always revenge: they did this to us now we do it to them. Illogical, stupid but human unfortunately. Another thing we have actively not to do.
  11. If I would name him other than above mentioned, his name would be Tristan. I love this name and try to have one in every of my stories. The name means riot or tumult, the perfect name for my muse. Other sources say it means knight also. It can never be wrong to have a knight around somewhere, right?.
  12. Depends on our mood: Come on hun. Don't do that to me, SOB. Where are you, sweetie?
  13. What? He had to change school? Considering this his father reacted remarkable civil when Bay finally came out. Or was that another stereotype: Gays are pedophiles? I have a thing for voices too.
  14. I found a shady tree to sit under, the dogs are hunting whatever they are hunting and I have finally the time to read your story. Nice beginning and so true. What I liked the most? What you said about Queen. Love them. Next chapter...
  15. Yeah next question: What do we do if the muse gets overexcited? Give him/her a beer? Go to the gym? Read other writer's work?
  16. Awww give him a cuddle from mine; his mood is decidedly better today. I revised two chapters of RRS and started to write the final chapter of my WIP.
  17. Now that I'm awake I remember that some use 'they' when they want to use a gender-neutral personal pronoun as a subject pronoun, whether that is right or wrong I don't know. Kitt?
  18. I know this sounds wrong for so many reasons but the proper pronoun would be 'it' - gender-neuter lol. Of course we wouldn't use it, because an 'it' isn't normally a person , not even a mythical. Das~ is a relative pronoun. In Thorn's sentence it would be 'es~'. In the German language we use 'es' (it), if the noun is gender-neuter or we don't know the gender, for example child (Kind). The problem is we have gender-specific articles, which means even 'things' like 'table' have a gender. If I would say 'der Muse or mein Muse', because my muse is male it would sound horrible wrong in German, a muse has to be female. In English it is 'the muse', much more simple. I'm not quite awake, so if this sounded gibberish, tell me and I try again later.
  19. My muse is most definitely male. *glares* because he is not cooperating today although we have the day off.
  20. So sorry, but this made my night! Had a bad dream and then couldn't sleep. I'm all better now.
  21. I think he's a guy who can't knot his tie. Look at his jaw...and isn't that a beard-shadow? ( is that the right word?) *clicks to look it up*
  22. I dunno...it looks painful.
  23. Okay that's simple: I hate it. For me it tastes awful. I know it's very healthy, cholesterol lowering and what not, but ewww.
  24. Cloning extinct species IMO is only interesting for scientists, not for the general idea of preserving animals, plants etc. I really doubt that a cloned sabre-tooth tiger would ever find its way out of the lab or the zoo, though. It's far too valuable to be shot by a hunter, die of an illness it never was confronted with in its time on earth, or be killed off by the present animal population. It's scientists flexing their muscles, who can do what under the vail of 'Think what we could learn could we study extinct animals.'

    Prompt #241

    I can see how well the threats of physical violence work with your muse. *eyes own muse speculatingly* There had to be a catch, but his one was really gruesome. How can he be so ignorant? That was creepy too.
