  1. Now, that's just odd. They're related to cows and goats. People are weird. I had a friend at uni who would eat venison, but when I told her that we eat reindeer up here, she was shocked. It's practically the same thing.
  2. Aww... Read or write something?
  3. Very good point. Also: Yum, satay! Aww, cute! This. If I think it sucks, I stop reading. Easy as that. As you should. That's the whole point of art, IMO. Lol! That's hilarious. Why would sheep's milk be any more gross than cow's milk?
  4. Glad he's doing better. Aww, always sad when things like that happen... I remember a few years ago this weather man retired from the NRK (Norwegian state channel) and people were so upset, lol! Man was an institution.
  5. Dude, that sucks. What happened to sports announcers just, you know, announcing?
  6. Enjoy your day!
  7. Hi, molly! Hope you're well. That's good to hear. Ooh, sounds really interesting! I would eat that. I like bernaise sauce on mine. I found this pizza once called hangover. It has beef, fries, and bernaise on it. I discovered that bernaise works on all sorts of pizza after that.
  8. Ooh, yum, pizza! And yes, free pizza is the best pizza. Hope it was yummy.
  9. Dutch still isn't as bad as the Finno-Uralic languages, I can tell you that, lol! I don't think it's possible to write a good story without somebody hating it. If you think about it, it's kind of a good thing. If they hate it, that means they have feelings about it. Much better than indifference. At least, that's what I tell myself.
  10. Happy Friday! Yes. This happened.
  11. And Hungarian. You may want to click on this to enlarge it....
  12. You think those are bad? Try Finnish.
  13. Precisely. And the profanity filter doesn't pick up the odd stray f-word, anyway...
  14. Seems arctic blueberries do also grow in Alaska... And apparently they are also called bilberries.
  15. 'bluefish 'em' just doesn't carry the same punch, somehow...
  16. What we call blueberries here is something completely different from what you have... Arctic blueberries grow on shrubs close to the ground, and are blue (well, blueish purple) all the way through. I find this fascinating.
  17. Readers abandoned Nemesis in droves... First there was a thing in the first book that pissed them off, then it was the end of the second book... Some kept reading anyway and commented again at the end of book 3. Then there were the people who complained about the swearing in The Jacob & Marcus Tales... Where I specifically stated that the whole thing began as an exercise in creative swearing. The most perplexing was a reader who was upset that a sixteen-year-old boy had his first kiss with someone other than his crush whom he didn't even know he had a chance with. I'm all about alienating my readers. It's like a sport.
  18. In that case: Yay, raspberries! Man, I write entirely for me. If people like it, great! If they don't....
  19. Yay, strawberries! That's an excellent idea.
  20. Well, here's what I think: Write the story you want to write. If people like it, great! If they don't... You wrote a story you wanted to write and you were true to yourself while doing so. Only you can tell the story that's inside you. So, screw the haters. You're not their bitch.

    Chapter 7

    Meh. I'm more interested in the feels, dude.
  22. Food time, maybe?
