We occasionally made use of this tool when I was studying for my MLA. http://www.ruderal.com/naughty word/naughty word.htm Edit: Substitute "bullshi*" for both instances of "naughty word". If you don't know what letter to substitute for the asterisk, then go ask your mom. It's not my URL, and there's...

Its been a while since I read The Handmaid's Tale, but it wasn't as "on the nose" then as it probably is now. Reality is unfortunately converging with a dystopian novel.

I've enjoyed these, but not Dresden or The Laundry Files. So, that may be a solid divide. Interesting. I also liked the short series by Mike Carey that I can't ever remember.

ive enjoyed that series.

The later books in Stephen King's Gunslinger series could have used a very heavy editing. I think he and his editor were both a bit indulgent, given that he had been away from the series and writing in general for quite some time (and nearly died in that period). I distinctly remember thinking...

Hail Mary. I read To Sleep In A Sea of Stars a while ago.

I was SURE I had read that, and my gf had a copy lying around, and I was bored so I finally flipped a few pages, and...pretty certain I hadn't read it. So I just did this weekend.

I certainly didn't think much of Colour of Magic. It's very much, in my recollection, "of an age". He wasn't "Terry Pratchett"; he was a guy writing a comic fantasy with satirical bits.

Wow. That was right there, wasn't it? :ROFLMAO::LOL::ROFLMAO::LOL::ROFLMAO::LOL:

It was decades ago. I feel like I WANTED to like it so badly, and I read a LOT, so...yeah. It says something that I couldn't finish it. The covers were fantastic, but the words inside just...wooden. I remember wondering who the f was buying these books.

I read like one and a half of the trilogy. It was genuinely awful.

If it was exactly the same except for those two things, you could take OGL2 content and republish it under OGL1 and stuff it full of bigotry. They NEED to de-authorize OGL1, which teaches them they might need to deauthorize, or change, OGL2 in the future. So they'll clearly give themselves that...

I don't hate WotC. I really don't care. I think it's a stupid move on their part, but whatever. As I said above, the cost of moving away is really low. I'm not the target audience, but I'm not going to yell and scream and say mean things. I'd rather seduce their target audience away. I'll switch...

If they agree to use ORC. Otherwise...why? For 22+ years they said the OGL was untouchable and we could rely on it. Now they say it's touchable and they're taking it away, because they own it. If they drop all this talk and keep using the OGL1, they'll still own the license and someone will try...

Finished Abercrombie's The Wisdom of Crowds. Dude needs to write faster so I can buy more books.

Finished The Constant Rabbit. It...didn't end quite as I expected. It was pretty good. Interesting. Going to say 4/5

Yes, but the Deeds of Paksenarrion is probably the best example of one.

Three Hearts and Three Lions is the most cited of Poul's works in the D&D context. Personally I think The Broken Sword was likely more influential. It's got

There is literally nothing I can say about that that couldn't be construed as a spoiler, including saying it's not a spoiler. The book has been out for years; it's been discussed on this forum before. But, alright. Comment removed.
