Re: Chat Thread 40: Where in the World is JeffCvt?

I like the idea of a randomizer that only changes tiny little things about the picture.
That is, a picture of a character whose eyes move around every page load, or turn a crimson red while faint text praising Cthulhu is visible in the background or something.

Re: An Experiment

Well, you asked me for criticisms and here you have. Honestly I think the ending was a bit rushed. Maybe it would be necessary one more chapter. I'm really sorry about that. Figuring out where to end a story and where to keep it going is seriously my biggest problem I have as a writer, and I'll be ...

Sure, Spo might not be hitting it off all that well, but you can't really blame him. 'Once you go rat you never go back' is truly one of the great romantic half-rhymes of our time. I think Emily Dickinson wrote that, actually.

It's been eight months since I wrote this fic. Only a few days ago did I re-read it. In doing so, I happened to have found quite a deal of grammar and syntax issues.

Thus, I've done some extensive editing. The storyline of Reminiscence has not changed, only its readability. Enjoy!
