The Great Write Way, Chapter Two: Twice upon a time...
A place for Buffistas to discuss, beta and otherwise deal and dish on their non-fan fiction projects.
Has there already been a summer topic?
Whispering. Or, possibly, more broadly: sighs and/or whispers.
Did we already do 'Family'?
Okay, after both wandering away from the computer and then forgetting we needed a topic, I'm back!
Challenge #57, the beloved Deliberately Bad Writing, is now closed. And that was some BAD writing, y'all. Good job!
Challenge #58 is shadow, and I urge you to consider the topic keeping in mind Jung's description of the shadow self.
Or not. It could just be a sunny day. (Bonus points to anyone who drabbles Thales of Miletus. Or even knows who he is -- without googling!)
Honey, I'm a Nero Wolfe fan. Of course I know who Thales of Miletus is. Mister Math Guy!
Of course I know who Thales of Miletus is. Mister Math Guy!
And how he relates to this week's topic?
Huh. No, there you've got me. Unless you're thinking about his astronomy stuff?
(/dumb)
Thales of Miletus is believed to have measured the height of the pyramids (well, one pyramid at a time) by measuring its shadow at the moment when his *own* shadow was his exact height.
Keen, huh?
OK, that really is cool.
I am not going to be the first off the draw on the new challenge today, though, because I've just written close to two thousand words on Cruel Sister and I need both a breakfast break and a beta read.
Bev? Anyone? Usual beta stuff, feedback, does it flow, is it suspenseful, does it ring true?
