Jesus. Obviously mornings aren't my shit because otherwise I feel like my "stuff to do with cum" rapid access database is better stocked than that shit I said earlier.

"Washcloth" almost has "clothes" in it! You could do it! :D Not weird by my reckoning. I think we all have some stuff that we need to tinker with its, dunno what to call it, notation structure? to organize the way we think about and grasp it. Like prepping yourself an idea menu to order from...

I think I'm probably in the minority here and especially on CHYOA where it makes so fucking sense to describe characters well. But I find I'm generally very lazy about character appearance in general because my conception of them often changes as I spend more time with them. I guess clothes are...

Adding an idea to my feature brainstorm list based on something I got annoyed about tonight. Something like, for each chapter have a field that captures the last x words or characters of the story contents. User defines x. User maybe also has an option to define an override value for x by...

"If so, why" BAHAHAHHAHAHAA I kind of wondered if I was going to get asked that. The main reason is that on paper my background is in finance but before that there was engineering school. In my first staff accountant job fifteen years ago the only development environment I could get on my work...

So the last couple weeks on and off I've been working on a sort of dashboard (not beta-ready & wanted to make sure it's allowed and not bad for the site to share something like that or to use a script that could increase page loads on more than just my small scale. Page load volume per each...

Preston, is that you?

This made me laugh aloud. I realized I'm not sure right now where I come down on character pages. I can't fault @TheLowKing's reasoning and I also pretty well agree since I also usually skip those assuming they're a writer reference. Then again I sometimes do a character list myself, although...

Your comment on my chapter earlier had me thinking, huh, what Banks book do I relate most strongly to and have the most interest in its characters and in emulating that vibe. Since they kinda run the gamut. I'm not sure Excession would work though for kindling the sexy times because I think I'd...

Your post in the other thread about endings made me think of something interesting/paralyzing me with indecision (haha but also hnnn) relevant to this story particularly. I have chunks of narrative for the characters at different ages, with jumps of years in between. It occurred to me the other...

So I've been background-churning on this topic since JW first posted yesterday. I don't know how much closer I am to anything resembling an answer but I did reach a few personal conclusions. One, @Cuchuilain has awakened me to something I thought I'd never be middle-management enough to...

THISSSSSS

If it's any consolation my answer for this is, pretty clumsily actually considering how in my "real" life I live and breathe Excel. That said I do have plenty of thoughts. Most of my scripting stuff has been VBA and oriented to ebook formatting or other bulk cleanup operations in Word (since I...

So I'm mildly surprised at the results and it was really cool to see how things came out just over the last couple days. I snapshotted in case after I post samples anybody wants to change their vote. Just for grins though. What did I expect? you ask. I kinda figured that Chrissy would win...

The interesting thing is taking a bit like that and working out even broad mechanics of what that means or looks like. I'm not trying to do that right now I'm just SAYING. Well that's a pretty understandable way to feel after being brutalized by the silently indifferent void. Ow. Yeah. I get...

My disclaimers first. I'm awash in throwaway ideas in general any given time, but notoriously fickle in switching off and this is all a labor of love for me so I tend to not write if I don't feel it. HOWEVER. Writing in a vacuum for only myself and then getting to a stuck point of decision...

"HooOooOoohhh! Navy Seals!"

I'm really glad to have been part of it then! I like the spin-off. I think most stories have tons of opportunities for interesting backdoor pilots. (sounds filthier than spinoff) :D

Scooting back through here to refer back to some of the ideas and caught a couple bits I missed earlier: "As someone WITH legs it's fascinating to hear the issues you people WITHOUT legs all face!" :) I'm giggling aloud right now not criticizing. No idea how I missed this other than it...

I'm waiting on my work computer to finish unexpected updates right now so maybe I will talk a bit about my overshare thing. I relate pretty fucking hard to, honestly most shit you seem to say, but this particularly. I've thought ad nauseum about the concept of my "author career" because I wrote...
