now that you've found that brain what  are you going to do with it?

HOW ABOUT MANAGING THIS FORUM AND KICKING THE WORDY WORDPECKERS' ASSES ON THE OTHER HORROR FORUMS AND ON THAT SPACE OF OVER-WORDY  SUFFOCATION CALLED SCRIBOPHILE. PUNKS WITH NO BRAINS AND SKELETONS WHO CAN'T TYPE AND GHOULS WHO KNOW NO GRAMMAR RULES!!! UNDEAD WRITERS NEED A LIVELY CARCASS WITH BRAINS TO LIMP AFTER WITH CONFIDENCE AND REVERENCE. 

Please, one of you nearly brain dead ass-piring WRITERS must have a will to live on brilliantly by taking this forum by the neck and throttling the next BIG writer to fame and fortune and an afterlife on Amazon.

CONTACT ME TO MANAGE THIS FORUM OR I WILL HAUNT YOU!!

Apparently Charlie has taken the last train to Flakesville, consequently the 92 members of LF have no figurative daddy/mommy to guide them down the wordy road of flame and misfortune.

Please, one of you loquacious and livid lovers of woe-begotten wackiness and wonderfully wordy words for the sake of wordiness, PLEASE take over this group.

Someday you may reach the pinnacle of success and this forum may be the path for you to walk all over people, things and crush stupid first drafts to your heart's and mind's content. Kidding... don't take me literally, lol.

Temple Wang quizzed me in a quickee telling me she wanted to take over this group, but perhaps she is lost in the temple... it's your's baby if you want it.

That's great, but who's going to buy all the crap after all the companies (in the interest of cutting cost and reducing errors) fire everyone and replace them with robots? Can a capitalistic society survive the robot revolution?

Yes, capitalism will survive all A.I. However, humanity won't. The robots will be running the show when that all-powerful Marvel Comics robot overlord pries that last gun from the hands of the cold dead hands from the last weakling human on a polluted planet once called Earth.

All humans are expendable once the robots learn how to reproduce them selves more and more efficiently. What need will they have for humans? Of course the robot masses may eventually ask about a god-robot and then capitalism will take a whole new direction.  The First National Bank of the Robot will start selling money, usury will prevail, and Robby and Robbit the Robot Realtors will come into existence.

When  the robots win THE REALLY COLD WAR  begins... robots have no need for mom, apple pie and the stars and stripes... wait, maybe that war already started. Better send the spies in !

I'm taking my groups to new heights now that my health and wealth are back. max boyce killed max keanu, thank god.

Hi Bll,
Well, you know my story: wife's suicide four years ago, eight years and counting of a disease that mimics ALS (MMN), 100mg/MS Contin each day, and a relpase/remission body affliction treated with $80-90K of IgG infusions each month. And, recently a deadly romance with my high school sweetheart that nearly killed me and made me want to kill her, lol.

My advice: never wish for da  mojo, brah, to do the hu-hu on yu... just let it happen.

As to the novel. well, novel means fresh and new. I know people say  there is nothing new to write abut, but I've fond a topic that no one has written about and eeet bringa da mojo back fo me, brah.

I return. I hope.

I have numerous writing apps. I wan to use a font that will be my final draft in projects and will transfer easily to publishers and book apps for sales.

What are the best all-around font and what size? I have been away from writing for three years. I need help in so many ways.

I have a motor-neuron disease called MMN, we think. This disease mimics ALS and is one mysterious monster of a disease. It's been a long and hard road to return to writing and life. Thanks again to all of you that stood with me.

I  love malaphor constructions in wills and legal papers, but not when signing on the dottering line.

I'm sure the folks here can think of many more malaphors, after they put on their thinking-craps and they will be on the tips of their tongues.

I usually wear mine when sitting in the throne room until the cows come home.

Well, I tried... lol.

Good work!

norm, they do this in the form of karma (points) on Scribophile

I recently read a great response to a forum question by norm which helped me understand the site better. I was wondering if a simple click indicating that the response was respectful, helpful and therefore deserved to be read by other members, sooner than later, might be possible. And, from positive responses the question and positive responses would stay of top of the database stack as FILO (first in, last out...etc.). I was also thinking that a helpful, positive response to a forum question might add small amounts of reviewing/ critiquing points to the questioner and/or the responders.


Just an idea. I have programmed code to do this type of thing in ColdFusion years ago. Now I  see this incentive coding in many feedback sections of major websites.

Having been a victim of gun violence, having had to live with type 1 diabetes from a gunshot to my abdomen, to my pancreas 50+ years ago, I definitely have strong opinions towards guns, to their disabling consequences to me, and their influence on American culture. I no longer rant and rave on forum posts and will attempt to express a cogent victim's perspective. I was dead for a number of seconds from this gunshot experience, so I will also try to express a dead man's point of view on guns and religion. Been there, done that.

Good luck, Bill. NOthing can keep a good writer down for long.

just a suggestion, Sol: Can the forums be listed by most members or by genre now that the forums application is larger and more diverse? thanks

A Russian friend of mine published through Xlibris/ Lit Fire and it took a lot of her money. They published her children's book and their scam discouraged her from continuing on to find an honest publisher. Shame.
