Just kidding, to each their own. But I'm terribly happy with rom com and tremble in fear at polsat. I'm also one of those who cannot comprehend why anyone would be scared of fairy tale. So *shrug.*

Wait! I’m getting married for the 3rd time next month. What is this romance word you speak of?

That's the part of history I like the best.  It's cyclical.

One of the words in my head I know I read and understand but don’t recall anyone ever saying it out loud.

The problem with PolSat is people fail to realize nothing happening today hasn't happened already, only worse.

Or, as one of my favorite people once said, 'the longer you can look back the farther you can look forward'.

If you can write plot and you can write characters, you can write anything.  

That being said, I'd prefer to not write suspense or action adventure.

I for one definitely am broken! The idea of having to be funny is terrifying for me. More than any other genre, hands down! Any tips or bandaids to fix my broken funny bone welcome !

Just kidding, to each their own. But I'm terribly happy with rom com and tremble in fear at polsat. I'm also one of those who cannot comprehend why anyone would be scared of fairy tale. So *shrug.*

Rom Com is just a genre I don't enjoy reading, so it makes it hard to write it.

Comedy I find difficult because, while I enjoy putting the funny into my writing, it's a lot of pressure for funny to be the point.
