Edit / disclaimer: I didn't originally read "just" as modifying the nouns after it. I read it initially as "merely"
[Merely] Father (has), paramedics (have), I (have)
Reading the just the way Marylin has, forces the nouns into the accusative. Just read this way implies "It was only X,Y,Z". There's an invisible subject pronoun affecting each noun
[Affected] father, [affected] paramedics, [affected] me
Interesting aspect introduced there.
Consider the "just" applies to a group of three.
Just (us)
Just (Father,paramedics,[me])
You could never get away with : Just (we)
It follows you cannot use : Just (Father,paramedics,I)
Hi Norm... I believe you're seeing something I've discovered on this sit is that the US and Canada have different rules for capitalization. For example:
"Wow, Mr. President, that’s a good one"
Source: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/11/18/us/p … tweet.html
in the US is probably not capitalized because he's really just "one president of many".
In Canada, it definitely is capitalized:
See:

Rule #4.03f
Rule #4.08c (last example)
Yes.
In which chapter does the comet strike and destroy the world?
Doing marketing right now. Trying to figure out the magic of background video
ok... in that case, you might be best to omit the scene so you don't post "chapter 9 scene 6" when it's really chapter 3 scene 6
Recommend you call that "Chapter 1 Scene 2" to help us keep it straight as complexity increases
My terms are way more alien than "agente" and I dont translate, so I think you'll be fine
Hi Suin...
The answer to your other question is "Yes, an export is possible". Send me your Email and I'll explain
Also, please beware, if I delete this post for no apparent reason
Alternatively, choosing a new password should require me to enter my old password
Hi Sol. Had a device stolen that's logged in here, so I went ahead and changed my password.
Now here's where the fun begins:
Existing devices are not kicked off / logged off when I set my password. The holder of the device can simply change my password to anything he desires. He can also change my email address to his own, then click "lost password" and unreset mine. (I validated the former is possible using my phone).
Recommend: Attempt to change email address goes through an email confirmation cycle
Recommend: Change password expires any active tokens on the user account
I think short posts is fine... I was just commenting that I personally had no comment yet. I often read 20 pages worth or so when starting a review of a new-to-me story on here
Read scene 1 but, unfortunately, I have insufficient material in there to leave a review. It looked to me like the true beginning was further in at the anointing scene, but I need to see more material to get a feel for the pace before I can say that with confidence.
Now I resume cattleprodding you
Thanks, I've posted one of my stories that has a problem in the intro and really need fixing.
You'll need to post it to premium for maximum viewership
Nor are they part of what the characters are.
Ah, but to what extend does our external stimuli become a part of what we are?
If I told you my grand mother was a hoarder, you might say "ok".
If I told you she lived through the Great Depression, you might say "ah-ha!"
In my current WIP it's "peacetime" so I'm painting the local characters as "trusting". Except Nova. She's plotting and distrusting. Why is she distrusting... because the (local authority) is out to stick it to her. I've allowed this external factor to colour her.
That's kinda what I missed in yours a sort of "X is on path Y because of factor Z"
For instance, what is it about Lortimer that would make him want to invite the other student for dinner, evidently for the sole reason that he's serous? (Maybe he was shown kindness once and now tries to deliver it back? if so, how does this drive his soul?)
You touched on P's family-member's death, but now how that has affected her? If not at all, that's just as telling as if she's developed a tendency to check in on people to their distraction / annoyance).
I wasn't looking for meaning attacked to every character tick, tho. Was just observing that I didn't spot any

Ahoy... where ye be? Storing up points after that giant mammoth contest posting?
MJ, I checked my settings and it's already set as you suggested, yet my forum threads still show up on Google. You don't even need to be logged into the site to read them.
Hey Sol, here's an interesting note: If you log off the site and browse the forum threads, it exposes the poster's IP address. This is hidden from logged in users.
Should Dirk become an NYT bestseller and move to some remote 200-person town, any further posts will reveal his approximate coordinates. All those lovely fans will geo-track him there and hunt him down.
Or... Fiat (in your story) is making the Lancia Delta again
I had a really great substantive editor back in the mid 90's. Actually, I didn't like him at first, but he was assigned to me. My attempts to escape him were met with resistance. After the first round (of three) of him eviscerating my work, I kinda got used to him. Alas, when I parted ways with the publisher, I lost track of him too (In these days we used PINE for email everyone used BBS's).
I have a new one but she's not as good, sometimes with one comment per chapter. Not really a good investment, and per price is too low (about 0.1 - 0.2 cents per word). The on Suin posted looks like he knows his stuff. I'm considering him for one of my projects (Maybe the Venus stories).
