As I was editing "Writ in Snowflakes and Sunshine," I stumbled upon this critique of it, which is one of the most entertainingly eccentric critiques I've ever gotten. Hi there Abra, just a breeze of thought, here, my initial impression of your story; I guess more having to do with substance than its technical layout. To let go with feeling or to thaw and understand the ice of the heart, so ...
...Stu fantasy protagonist turns out to be the future Dark Lord" fantasy novel idea, but I keep getting sidetracked by the quirky miniboss squad working for the old Dark Lord. At least *they* have the grace to be entertainingly campy about whateverhorrible things they may be up to, but characters who are neither eccentric nor amiable are hard for me to get enough of a mental hold on to write about.
Blargh. I am feeling entertainingly demotivated. I'd blamethe weather, but it's been stupidly sunny (if nipple-freezingly cold) for the past three days and is due for another four days of sun (and cold). None the less, nothing but the knowledge that if I pry myself out of bed and stagger into work I will get money has actually gotten my out of bed. Otherwise I'd probably just lie there and ...
... the effort. "I'm not an unreasonable man—I offer you what I've offered your worthy comrades: join me, or die like the Mudbloods," the Dark Lord offered silkily. "Slowly, and painfully—though quite entertainingly for the rest of us, I assure you." With a wave of his hand, the Dark Lord released the rope that had been wrapped firmly around Severus's head and across his mouth, freeing the young ...
... Social Club AGM, which took the form of a BBQ & free beer, and also free soft drinks, since I seem to be on a non-drinking kick at the moment, I was involved in the most entertainingly foul conversation of my time here. It was with a couple of Australians, and involved sheep. Specifically, the NZ uses for sheep, as assumed by Australians. My thinking is that they were expecting some level of ...
...first chance to hear how the music is going to sound on the night, plus the usual chance to make little jokes and sing along without distracting from the main focus. Tech rehearsal on Sunday afternoon was as entertainingly bad for the actors as such things usually are. Normally I use it as an opportunity to try out my costume, but having had costume run-throughs in the hall in the week, I didn't ...
... seemingly contently in his glass bowl for over a year, occasionally nipping my fingers when I dropped food for him. He was nice to have around whilst he was alive, very pretty and entertainingly aggressive. Kate, Austin and Sophie then decided to take up residence in Kalgoorlie and continue to periodically return to us live in the granny flat for a number of weeks, in which I have ...
...public at large. The very Daily Mail concept that misbehaving celebrities owe an apology to people who are in no conceivable way affected would be an interesting one to explore more thoroughly. But while it may not have anything earth-shatteringly new to say, the show says it very entertainingly. Public Property by Sam Peter Jackson is booking until the 5th of December at TrafalgarStudio 2.
... this. This is a truly godawful movie. The writing is bad, the acting is bad, the special effects are bad, and there are many things that offend me deeply. I can't even say it was entertainingly bad. It was just boring. I spent most of my time waiting for it to be over. There were some interesting minutes when Michael Sheen, an accomplished and interesting actor, was on the screen, but they ...
... shaking-off-the-cold acoustic-guitar flutter of “One Minute Man” (both the original, featuring a lascivious, eager Ludacris, and the remix with Jay-Z, whose verse is one of the most entertainingly callous ever recorded). Nearly a decade after Missy and Timbaland devised these MDMA-saturated tracks, they still sound as audaciously forward-thinking—hell, futuristic—as any hip-hop or R&B ever made. ...
