It's somewhat reassuring to think that your partner probably consider you a better writer than award winning, best-selling author Stephenie Meyer LMAO
(also laughing @ u Chair lmao. I noticed that status)

0u0 I have nightmares about people comparing me to Meyer (well, Cassie Clare more specifically), I can't stand her writing.

Also, I'm biased toward this but. Freckles. On everyone. Everybody has freckles, you have freckles, your friends have freckles, your dog has freckles, FRECKLES FOR ALL. Once or twice, yes, but after your fifteenth Dirk and Karkat with a galaxy of freckles, it gets so stale. As someone who is deeply into the cosplay community (and is also freckled myself) I can't begin to tell you how happy I'll be once this trend is well and over. On the topic of epithets, my biggest struggle with the english language is the lack of differenation between possessive pronouns. In swedish we have a specific pronoun for "their own", so you don't gotta go "wait, whose hair is he grabbing?". In english I feel the need to constantly make clear whose stuff we're talking about, and being really sensitive to repeating words and phrases I do feel a bit of tugging from the epithet side... Most epithets are just ugly, bulky nonsense, though. |
