I totally support the idea that listening to audiobooks counts as reading. I can't read traditionally while in vehicles (trains, buses, etc.) because I get major headaches if I do. Audiobooks have been my lifesaver on my commute.
Finally finished King of Scars. The ending dragged on, in my opinion. I get it was setting up for the sequel, but the dramatic reveal fell flat after the drawing out of the finale.
No you belong in the group. Writing takes practice. I am not upset about your writing. My critique has no anger in it, and is, like all critique, recommendations on how to improve on the share piece
This was a rant about me not understanding your reasoning not about your writing.
No! I like you.
Don't despair. I had heard about a kid confronting those types of parents. I believe they said "Oh, wow. You're grown-ups who can't tell the difference between make-believe and reality."
...I was hoping that he would back out of the group, once we moved onto the topic of fantasy, but he stuck around. Then he mentioned he won't read anything with curse words, and he is learning Japanese so he can watch anime because the Japanese language doesn't have curse words! *sigh* A falsehood.
According to the person, magic is a no-no. Shapeshifting is magic. Though, in the story I wrote, the shapeshifting was framed as a divine gift from the deity of the moon.
Wait, you won't read a story with shapeshifting because it is against your religion (some version of Christianity), but you are okay with a story with multiple gods?
*facepalm* I don't understand you at all.
