So if a four-person band of a dragon knight, a dragon healer, an incompetent wizard, and a comatose mystic arrived at your doorstep and the dragon knight explains that 'our friend was paralyzed by a library book, could we come in?', what would you do?

Let them in, offer them some mozzarella sticks :D also ask what book and what library so no one else gets paralyzed...

A shard of glass about two inches long thrust into someone's throat would kill them pretty fast, right? How fast? Would they be able to speak (I guess this depends on where exactly you stabbed them, but...I can keep it ambiguous...)

I would say... it would be sufficient, but you would need Force adequate to break through the tissue and enter the airway OR hit the jugular and they would bleed out in a matter of minutes. The least messy depends. Easiest is hitting the jugular probably. Time is hard to estimate. I've seen plenty of informative articles about different stab wound targets on Pinterest with thorough explanations!

Would it theoretically be a proposal to write Sherlock Esque novels set in the fantasy world of a fantasy series of your own, or another authors creation, with rights of course, and then write under a pen name of a person inhabiting the fictional world and make it like an actual account? So like Lemony Snicket but with a fantasy world

GUYYYYYYYS IM DONE WITH MY NOVEL (the first draft anyway) and I want to scream and freak out to my family but they're all asleep!

This feels amazing. An enormous confidence booster for someone who's constantly doubting her ability to write anything too. :p

Well I understand it can be anything but like... basically I'm saying if someone wrote a "Gulliver's Travels" style book and the author was literally named "Gulliver" lol XD just the mind games you could play!

Well, I'm doing something similar but idk if I want my pen name to be Shirley XD

Um. [emoji14] Good question.

I thought it was a story about an all-girls school for assassins in a post-apocalyptic fantasy setting. But then the fantasy thing started to take center stage and the technology is like steampunk/1850's and there are zombies and it's pretty weird, really.

I replied. I had to edit it because I used Google's text to talk feature to insert my text and it got all crazy. So it's a short critique I like the story but the rest is in the reply in your portfolio. Have a good night.

I'd tell them, Sorry, I'm all stocked up on crazy here, but the Bates Motel down the road might have a vacancy and if not, their last option will be the Overlook Hotel about five miles past that.
