Is it natural to start to lose interest in writing if nobody reads your works?
I love writing. But whatever I post fanfiction or fictionpress is, for the most part, ignored. At least that's what it seems like to me. I would even accept a single person reviewing my works as an accomplishment in my writing career. But it seems nobody takes the time to read my works. As a result, I start to lose interest in the project and, eventually, I stop caring. Does anybody else feel the same way?
9 AnswersBooks & Authors1 decade agoHelp with the pronunciation of names/words that have apostrophes!?
I have been wondering and researching about those kinds of words. For example, in James Cameron's AVATAR, some names/words have an apostrophe in the middle...how exactly does that change the pronunciation of the word? I know how they should sound, but how would they sound without the apostrophe? Please include examples of these Na'vi words, plus some others you can think of to help me understand. Also, what do you call that apostrophe inside one of those words...does it have a specific name?
How would these be pronounced without the apostrophe?
Na'vi
Tsu'tey
Mo'at
2 AnswersLanguages1 decade agoLooking for a new anime or manga series...?
I love Darker Than Black, Claymore, Elfen Lied, and Code Geass.
I am looking for a new anime or manga that revolves around underground organizations (preferably if the organization controls stronger beings who are meant to simply do what they are told). If not, something around these lines. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
4 AnswersComics & Animation1 decade agoI need help with my story! Someone who has a vast knowledge of drugs/chemicals/human body would be ideal.?
I am writing a story from the point of view of the antagonist. He needs to kidnap a child of about 4-7 years old. The child needs to be conscious and needs to still be able to walk. I would prefer it if the child is loopy/lethargic (so he doesn't freak out or panic because he is being kidnapped). I'm thinking the child could be injected with some sort of drug or forced to inhale a chemical of some sort. Please include in the answer if one of the suggestions you make would be fatal at any point. As long as the suggestion is real, I don't really care how odd or difficult to obtain it is.
Thank you.
