Why would I be angry lol

Its just a sticker

who?

Because its funny...

Nah, I just sense tension and flee because I’m a coward... that or, as I mentioned, I suck at reading people

purple prose is entirely a thing.

lmao, I was never tense. I'm direct. Seems like DisneyChick is direct too ahahaha

Yes, and some people enjoy it, some do not. And it's not always appropriate for every story.

I have the perception of a brick. If people aren’t blunt with me, I will miss 100% of what is said to me

True

definitely agree lmao

Me too. I don't typically read past what someone says, intentions or otherwise. If we're conversing, we're conversing. If someone's mad or done, I'd hope they'd say so, and we can then close it out

I recently read Peter F. Hamilton's Night's dawn trilogy. The length of the extremely long books could have been cut in half by just dumping the extraneous detail descriptions of things that didn't add to the story.

I shaking and screaming

*shrugs* Sometimes less is more.

Freaking. Read Lidya Davis's book of short stories.

Seriously, freaking 30 page ""story"" of watching cows eat grass

and just describing the grass, the fence, the different ways they were facing

Anyhow, I will share more on what I write in a couple days. I work tomorrow and Saturday before switching up for an earlier shift Monday and Tuesday

Good luck.

Show dont tell shouldnt mean excessive description. It should mean focusing on what's important plot and story wise. If it doesnt serve a purpose, why include it?

Dance Schoen!

Hamilton wrote the entire formation of a solar system, then the detailed astrophysical cycle, then the evolution from cells to spacefaring aliens, that he then killed off offscreen and never used again as a living race.

I mean, it was interesting, but useless information. LOL

ahaha WELL YOU KNOW SOME PEOPLE SHOW OFF

like Moby Dick spending forever talking about whales

Yeah.

Back to cursed-memes, where I belong

ahahahaha. That place is truly cursed

cursed is best
