Please anybody tell me insults for a woman similar to b*tch. I only know sl*t, wh*re, t*at, twit and c*nt, and the last one can be used a lot. Please?

It's for research purposes for my book. xD

I want to wrote a dystopia, but I don't really have any (too) original ideas - now I am not asking you to think of the setting for me - I am just asking what do you consider a horrible thing that can happen to our world (no details needed)? And what something that you sort of take for granted, but you wouldn't be able to bare it if it was taken from you?

For me a nightmarish thing would be to be undetsurvailance all the time from a government and for them to know my life, the things I care about, my dreams, nightmares and to use them against me (and even for me), like these adds that use things about you to sell you products - it's happening in Tokyo, and I hear it's about to happen here soon too.

I also value my freedom. My freedom to think something, to stand by my beliefs (weather it will be feminism or religious views or even if I prefer to eat chicken or be a vegetarian, for instance); to chose how to live my life, to chose the person I am with and for no one to be able to tell me: this is against the law (of course, people will always have prejudices etc. but technically I will have a right to do this and that,)

So I want my family of supernatural hunters to be moderately rich (they have a five-bedroom house in small town and 3 cars, not like BMWs, but still). What can they do for a living to be relatively well-off (it's a book with a modern setting.)

So the father of my heroes is a supernatural hunter and I was wondering what kind of profession could he have/pretend top have?

Private security would make a lot of sense - he could explain why he has so many weapons and weird widgets and why he knows how to fight and has all kinds of weird survival skills. However that was done in Teen Wolf and I am already doing the hunters called 'argent' (well for now, I may change it later on) thing, so doing the private security thing may be too much.

A police chief can also work, as he lives in a small town and as he heads the police no one would investigate him and you know he knows everyone so he can get out of stuff, but Charlie in Twilight was a police chief so I don't know.

A retired FBI agent? Although why would he retire at 40-something?

Can someone help me out?

Maybe he can have like a normal job and if someone sees the guns he'd say he is a weapons-collector?

I have a macbook air, and I put in my removable USB flash drive with 9GB memory, but on my mac it shows me that it only has 385MB left and no files on the flash drive. How do I get back all my other memory? Please help me!

Would you watch that tv show: a comedy/drama about a girl, who is surrounded by guys and has no close females in her life.

The main characters will be her gay dads, a boyfriend, an ex boyfriend-current friend, a brother/gay best friend/cousin (not sure for that one).

The first season will be about her learning to balance femininity and masculinity and finally getting a girl best friend.

How do you think that sounds, would you watch a show like that?

I have three questions:

1. Do you think it should be a dramedy (Raising Hope; Scrubs) or a sitcom with a dramatic side (How I Met Your Mother; Friends). I think there is some great basics for jokes there, but I don't think I am a great comedic writer. I can write comedy using sarcasm or irony, but not so much actual jokes and I hardly see any good and strong sitcoms these days.

2. What do you think about voice over? I kind of love it, even though it can be cheesy sometimes and I never remember what it's said at the end, but still, when it's good it's really good. (but not like extremely generic and having no real conclusion)

3. Do you think I should make her in high-school or in college? On one hand it is a theme about self-discovery, so high school is way more believable, but on the other 18 is still a teenager and I don't want all the drama that goes with high-school stories. I kind of want her to be more mature, plus her ex will be older and there will be stuff going on with him there too. If she's in college, she'd be in a college like half-an-hour from where she lives, so she'l be home all the time basically.

So what do you think?

Ok, so I have this idea for a young adult dystopia:

a totalitarian society set in a zombie apocalypse.

Now, this will be a couple of centuries after the zombie outbreak, where the world has rebuild itself and lives behind tall walls save from the death outside.

However, on the inside there is no freedom - people are constantly being watched by cameras to eradicate crime, there is a set job position for everyone, there is no art allowed to be created (even singing has been forbidden, because it was deemed impolite, when death surrounds you) everything is stiff and official and no one has any fun.

The news are compulsory for everybody, and every night they show clips of what is going on 'outside the walls', to remind everyone that the safest place is inside.

The first novel (I'll go for a trilogy, but I only have an idea for the first one so far), will be told from two different points of view:

a 15-year old girl, whose father (a government worker, whose work is classified, but it's known that he is working with people looking to find a cure), who lives inside the fences. One day government workers announce her father's death (her family is what is deemed to be very upper class) and in her will she realises he has left her a message and she tries to figure it out.

The other character will be an 18-year-old boy outside the walls, who leads a resistance group, trying to survive on the outside. (he is not the only leader - it's a rather large group). He was a young poor boy, but when he was a kid his baby sister had been taken away from him (by the government) and his mother -his only parent, killed herself soon after his sister was taken. This memory haunts him as he blames himself for their deaths, and the fact that his father left them.

Eventually the girl, realizes that her father didn't want her to live inside the walls so she works out a plan with her brother (one of the border-policemen) to let her out and she joins the resistance group (her brother stays inside the walls).

And yes, there will be a romance, but most-likely not in this book. Anyway it will be a survival story and I already have a little bit of a twist figured out for the end. What do you think? Would you read it?

He is the hero in a romance novel.

He is the boss of the company around the age of 30 (late twenties to early thirties - yes, I know it's unrealistic, it's a romance, go with it!).

He is tall 6'2 with brown hair an light icy blue eyes and attractive.

He is commanding, private, but with a dry sense of humor. Smart, elegant, but playful in private. Gets easily bored, a workaholic, an alpha male type.

(Yes, I know it's a cliche, but archetypes work for the romance genre.)

Please no comments on how cliche my character or my idea or whatever is. I know, I'm simply asking for help for a name.

His last name is Hayes, though that can be changed. Right now, his first name is Carter, but I am not sure how good of a fit that name is.

Ok, so I sort of got inspiration from Scrubs and I want the story to be like something you may see in Scrubs.

It's not plagiarism though, my characters and stuff will totally original just the way the story feels, that's what I mean.

What I've figured so far: A young (26-year-old), attractive medical nurse transfers hospitals, so she can spent more time with her dying father, who spends 90% of his time in the hospital.

One of the surgeons has a crush on her and he wants to date her/sleep with her, but she doesn't want to date doctors, especially surgeons, because they treat the nurses like lower-class people and have God-complex and are really immature and so forth.

Eventually she fools around with him (she has a thing about having sex/making out etc. when she's sad/grieving, it's how she gets over it). He tells all the other surgeons about it and she get the reputation of the slut of the hospital. Eventually he apologizes and stands up for her because he realises he actually likes her and she agrees to go out with him.

They date for a little bit and she starts liking him more and more and just after they've been together for 2-3 weeks her dad dies. She tells him that he doesn't have to stick around and take care of her, they've only been together for a little while, she doesn't expect him to stick around and watch her be a mess etc., but he decides he wants to and that's all i have so far, but it can't be more than the first act.

Anything else they may encounter, pls, help?!

I am not sure if I will or can write one, but maybe I can try?

I wanted to be from the killer's POV and it to be really, really sick. He will seem like a charming, very enigmatic person, like sociopaths/psychopaths tend to and he will be attractive because he will carry himself with respect and grace.

His attraction to the girl - his first victim will be strangely sexual and non-sexual at the same time.

I have this problem - I am not sure if I can spread this premise into an entire book (not a long book, between 60 000 to 80 000 words).

Also - I've never read anything like that, can you recommend something like that for me?

Ok, so the character is a 17/18 year-old-girl, going to highschool somewhere between 2010-2020. She'd be a brunette or a redhead with fair skin and green eyes, 5'7 ft. (1,70m) Skinny, doky and geeky. She'd be wearing colorful clothes and all kinds of t-shirt with funny inscriptions or like fan t-shirts and stuff, mostly a sporty style.

She starts out as a shy, introvert, not really sure of herself. She is obsessive and has ADD and of course no romantic involvements.

1/3rd through the story she'd get turn into a vampire. From there on, she'd become more confident and sporty and stuff, but no her personality won't magically change - if anything it'll enhance.

Here are names that I am going around, but I haven't really clicked with any of them: Korra, Kaya, Arianna, Hope, Charlie, Jennifer Dylan Cooper (Jace; JC; Dylan)

I want an uncommon name, but then not TOO uncommon. And please no stupid names like Blue or Cat for example.

I've always wanted to write YA about vampires and werewolves and such and I know that they've been overused for the past few years, but I still want to have my try at it and I plan mine to be, you know - good.

So here's the basic idea:

(Kaya) is a smart, nerdy girl whose always played by the rules. Until the Halloween party at her junior/senior (11/12 grade) year of high school. She and a group of friends decide to take a look at the local cemetery, when they are attacked. When Kaya wakes up all of her friends are dead and she feels strange - the light burns her eyes, even the smallest of sounds irritates her and she's hungry - like really, really hungry.

Eventually Valentine and Leila (he's a guy) - the local vampires, who just moved into town find her and explain what is happening. Just in time too, because she almost kills a sales clerk.

The vampires help Kaya adjust to her new abilities, and weaknesses, while she investigates her friends death and her own turning.

And just when thinks seem to go her way as she and Valentine start a tentative relationship - someone comes into town and seems to be gunning for her.

Can it be her mysteriously missing maker (makers are important for new-born vampires in my story)? Can Kaya survive the raging psychopath?

So: How does it sound? Would you read it?

The names so far are just for example, those probably won't be the actual names, those are just the ones that popped into my head.

If I make it into a series there will be different protagonists each book like: A half-vampire vampire hunter; her hunter brother; a tantrum-throwing Firstborn vampire (the child of an Original vampire); original vampire; a couple of werewolves and a which (those are just for examples) - and there could more than 1 protagonist in one book and all of them will interact at some point.

Ok, so I have this freaking awesome idea for a fanfiction that I want to turn into an original story and before you say - that I am plagiarizing - no I'm not! All the settings and plotlines and characters (well except for my main character and possibly this other character - but I can twerk them enough to make them original. OPlus it's an orogin ff so they start off as completely different characters) are original.

I only have problem with this one thing - it is a fanfiction of the Hunger Games and of course my story revolves around the Hunger Games, but I don't want it to.

So my question is: what can I do instead of the Hunger Games.

I have two ideas:

1. Battle school (that's not how it's going to be called) - pretty brutal place where 12-22 year olds get trained for different kinds of soldiers. Sometimes they die (death goes from suicide, accidental to murder 1).

The problem I have with this is that it is too accidental and I want all the people that my main character loses (except for maybe one) to be killed with the goal to get to her (hurt her/aggravate her/show her who is in command/make her desperate).

2. Aliens had previously taken over Earth, but humans won the war. The aliens have retreated in small colonies all over the planet, but the government still considers them treats and they have to be eliminated. 12-22-year-olds are trained and send to 'protect the planet' by killing the aliens. Except it turns out that the aliens are beaten down and don't hurt anyone, so the humans are committing genocide.

Many die in battle, but not from the aliens rather than from their comrades, by government orders, possibly because they've figured this out.

But then why would the government want to kill the aliens in the first place? Because they have something the humans want? Plus now that I think about it - that's not a very original story, it's basic american history and I am hardly the person to tell it.

Please help me - what do I do?

It has to be something between 150-200 word tops and I mean the entire book, including the end. I need it for an essay, my own summary is way too long.

So I want to write a romance set is on of the southern USA states in the late 1960s (most likely Texas, because it's the only one I am sort-of familiar with).

It'll be a love between a 17-year-old Middle class white girl and a 20-year-old black boy. There will be at least one sex scene.

Can you offer me some good research sources (possibly online)? I really want to try and represent the south USA; the black-white relationships; the way people talked and acted - as realistically as I can. I mean obviously, in every romance there is a suspension of disbelief and a fantasy element, but I do want to be real and not just a collaboration of bullshit.

Can you help?

Also can you help me figure out a name for my main character? I like Dante, Damon, James and Ennis. What do you think of those names? Can you offer something else?

Is it legal in USA a 23-year-old to date (have sex with a 17-year-old? This will be a plot point in the story with the characters discussing what's legal and what's not and what does it mean to them, but if I'll write it in, I'd probably like it to be legal. What about other sexual activities like 2nd and 3d base?

Also, can I write sex scenes in New Adult novel?

The story is about two people who have grown up together and have a huge age difference (6 years), but have always been best friends... until they start having feelings for each other.

The guy especially is very conflicted, because a lot of girls have crushes on him and he can date whoever he wants pretty much, yet he wants her and he wonders why is she so special.

I have not decided on a story arc for her yet.

I am wondering if the age difference is too big and that even if it's legal, won't it be creepy. Should I give them a smaller age difference of 4-5 years? What do you think?

So I just signed up for Netflix and surprise, surprise, there only TWO seasons of Castle and How I Met Your Mother? How is this possible? Are the other seasons showing up, at all? Can you suggest any good free/cheap sites for streaming movies and tv shows online? Possible ones in which new episodes show right away?

So I have these new shoes that are so comfy, but they gave me a blister. I looked around on the internet and saw that it was because I wore them so much with no breaks between, but I really like them. Now, I've gotten rid of that blister (it was on the bottom part of my foot, just behind the toes) - first it popped, then I cut it out, but now a new blister is showing up on the same spot. How is that even possible?!

I put on one of these blister-plasters, for now, but what can I do so I won't get a new blister (and btw, I don't have any on my other foot) and keep wearing the shoes?

Why did they need to keep everyone so poor and having such low quality of life? Why did they hold the Games every year (I mean, yes technically it's so the districts don't rebel, but if the districts had an average quality of life, they wouldn't rebel, so why?) Why did the Capital see nothing wrong with the Games?

Please explain this part at length. I got it when I read the books, but it's been a few months since and I've forgotten.

I wonder what is an evil government's motivation? And yes technically an evil government won't think they are evil, but why would a government need some pretty harsh laws? Please give ideas, because I am looking for motivations for my Dystopian YA.

So I am writing a story, in which my main character thinks she has a malignant brain tumor (glioma) and has about 1-1 and 1/2 to 2 years to live, but I have a few questions:

1. Can a begnign tumor be confused for a malignant one? Because it turns out that she'll live at the end, but how could I explain this? For instance she had one test that showed that it was very likely that she has a malignant glioma, so she did another test (like an MRI) to show what it really was, but she didn't want to know? What could the first test be (I want the doctor to be like 95% sure that it's malignant glioma, but has to do the second test to see what to do about it).

2. Can she not have any treatment at all? I mean both chemotherapy and radiotherapy are horrible and in the case of malignant cancer all they can do is give her a few (incredibly horrible and painful) months to live so can she just give up treatment and still have about a year to live?
