@researchbuzz that's amazing. I feel like I can relate. One of my characters went off the rails and I don't know if they're going to make it.
@cwgrody I'm ok with my characters doing the heavy lifting.
@haikushack I sure hope so, and not that I have split personalities 😅
Do you have runaway characters?
I thought I had a plan for my novel, plotted out 15 story beats, whole 9 yards. Then I started writing it, and my characters started making their own choices as I helplessly watched, screaming "what are you doing?!?!"
Do I need a therapist? Or is this normal?
@Jezebelley oh, how I wish that was enough.
@UpSheepCreek 😂 thats something I might do.
@awnaves thats actually hilarious. Why would they do that?
@awnaves ok, I'm glad I'm not alone.
@AnneW but I wasn't joking, they're really good 🤣
@edjunkiecom I would like to think so, but with my luck they woulr get jammed up under the wheels, gunk up my brakes, tear off my air lines and bring the whole damn thing to a screeching halt.
@Myth_Kat I still play sims3 from time to time. I fear change, 4 is too much for me.
@Lillyrat @HaikuHedgehog yeah, proper sterilization is key for consistency. Its like, 40% of the process. You can do it without proper sterilization, and it will work, but it will have inconsistent yeilds and colonization rates. Right now I'm taking my time to find techniques that work for me that can be scaled up as I grow this into a business. If I only perfect substrate handling and nothing else, most of my work will be done.
@HaikuHedgehog @Lillyrat I'm using wood pellets, because I have a lot of them for my pellet stove. Soon I'm going to switch to sawdust, because I have a few local sources that I can get it for free.
@holon42 yeah, that seems more appropriate. I found it confusing because I didn't think it was british writing, and it seems consistently used in much of what I have been reading.
@RiekaWrites solid priorities! 😆 I feel that.
I have a Podcast with my wife where we talk about zombie books, movies and tv shows. I'm also writing a novel based in a zombie apocalypse.
