Don't know too much about that. I think things are post-moderated [so you can post and then if someone complains or if a Mod sees something, then there is Mod-activity]. One of the Mods will leap in if I have that wrong. I think posts should appear almost instantly. I don't know if there are any...

Hail and well met SMAndy from the UK. Good to have you here. Leap on in and enjoy. There are a lot of interesting things and some wonderful people to be discovered within the Halls of Mythic Scribes.

Hail and well met TheStranger Be no Stranger at all. Take off your pack. Pull up a seat. Kick off your boots and warm your toes [those are toes? Right?] by the fire.

Halflings are supposed to have a remarkable tolerance for alcohol, I'm sure I read/played somewhere.

I suppose you can start with what the Egyptian culture you are interested in does have, and how that can be made fantastical... Didn't they, at one time, believe that a giant dung beetle pushed the sun through the sky?

There is a fair amount of alt-history that has fantastical elements, for War of the Worlds to the Temeraire series of books and much in between. I haven't heard of one set in a historical Egypt, though.

Hail and well met Jorunn [of the Northwest] Good to have you here. I hope someone else is organising your wedding as this place can be Procrastination Central... Leap on in. There is a lot to peruse in the older threads and there is usually some interesting banter to be had.

I think it's this one "So that wasteman said 'your shoes suck'." but there again I also think it should be 'So that wasteman said "your shoes suck".' [Maybe because my professional work in on-line and ' ' is thought clearer than " " on screens] I'd only add a comma if I wanted to emphasise a...

Hail and well met kikyo [aka Amber] Good to have you here. Hope you find this place as helpful and supportive as I do.

Hail and well met Princessbljack Good to have your here. I'm know as CupofJoe and I'm neither a cup nor a Joe so no-one sweats a real name here. And I really hope that some of the avatars are are life portraits. If they are, there are far too many cats that can type for my liking... Hope you...

Hail and well met fiera43 [aka Kayden] Good to have you here. Everyone writes in the way that works for them. You can learn how others do it, but eventually you will find your own way. Leap on in and don't be shy. [okay I get the fiera bit now, but what about the 43? :p]

And in their sleep, they will do that adorable "I'm chasing something" [humans, sheep, whatever] twitch.

Shiny! It's all the Mudder's Milk you've been drinking.

I've just finished watching a programme on the Great Fire of London... They talked about houses going from unburnt to ashes in as little as a few minutes at the height of the fire. So I don't think a barricade wouldn't last long once it was alight. If they can get the water on soon enough, then...

Hail and well met Stone Lazarus of California Good to have you here We try to make this place a sort of home from home for weary writers Pull up a seat and rest a while
