Re: Human & Lupusad - Of Men and Wolves
Hey Jonesy, mind if I reference this for a paper I have in Gender Race and Crime? It fits what I need almost to a tee.

Re: Human & Lupusad - Of Men and Wolves
I'd be honored, but I'd also advise caution. In my academic experience, references for assignments and such really ought to come from professional sources, namely other studies, papers or relevant information sources. Using a piece of fiction would best be used as an example you'd then apply your other findings (gathered from other sources) to.Bellhead wrote:Hey Jonesy, mind if I reference this for a paper I have in Gender Race and Crime?

Re: Human & Lupusad - Of Men and Wolves
This is for, and I quote, a "reaction paper". I am to read/watch/listen to/attend something that relates to class, and write about it. H&L has racism, unfair justice, race-related riots and strike, uneven pay.. As far as the teacher is concerned, and I asked, this would be great.Jonesy wrote:I'd be honored, but I'd also advise caution.

Re: Human & Lupusad - Of Men and Wolves
Ah, OK then. Sounds fine. In fact, would you mind PMing me the paper when it's done? I'd love to see it.Bellhead wrote:This is for, and I quote, a "reaction paper".

Daaaaaaang...
So, there I was with a few hours to kill, (aka I was a quarter the way through the work day...) and I figured I'd gamble a read in here to pass some time. To say that I was pleasantly surprised would be a vast understatement.
I'll be honest in that I wasn't super impressed to start out when you were throwing out phrases like "little did she know..." and having those minor grammatical errors, but after just a bit more, I found myself dreading having to hit the next page button knowing that every time it took me closer to the end of the most recent update.
Perhaps one of my happiest takeaways from this is that you've avoided throwing in any useless love triangles to boot, (though you had me worried there a few times...) thank you so much for that!
So here I sit 3 hours from shift change and a month from the next update, eagerly awaiting both!
Sorry for any text weirdness, I'm typing this from a phone, will fix anything when I get home.

Re: Human & Lupusad - Of Men and Wolves
I'm glad you're enjoying it. Even I admit that my writing has come a long way from those flowery early chapters, as you can probably tell since I've done a MSTing of the first one. Once I'm finished the story, I'm thinking of going back to do some moderate re-writing to bring those early parts back to my current standards.Dadrobit wrote:Daaaaaaang...

And despite all the possible ships I could do, I think the protagonists have enough to deal with without having to compete for affection. It'd be horribly cliched as well. Although, I know at least a couple of readers who'd like to see Isaakai become a thing...

Gah! Curse you for making me think there was an update sooner than there was one! -Obligatory-Jonesy wrote:anything at all
Isaakai, eh? Doesn't Rakai have enough to deal with just talking to Nituna?

Re: Human & Lupusad - Of Men and Wolves
Eh, I'll leave Issakai in the hands of fanfic writers. Like I said earlier, I'm more in to Rakai and Nituna. I hope to see them work things out. Also, I wonder if Iduel will find someone.stumblinbear wrote:Me :vcJonesy wrote:I know at least a couple of readers who'd like to see Isaakai become a thing...

Yeah, Isaakai isn't going canon. As for Iduel, considering all he's been through and the state he's in, finding someone is probably pretty low on his list of priorities.FrogSteaks wrote:Eh, I'll leave Issakai in the hands of fanfic writers.

You'll have to make a fanfiction to correct that mistake, won't you?stumblinbear wrote:;-;Jonesy wrote: Isaakai isn't going canon.
Also, I just realized that Jakob x Rakai would have the same name as a race from Slightly Damned; Jakai. Or at least, with a 'k' missing. Close enough.

Next chapter isn't too far away, and is being proof-read. In the meantime, I've done up an entry in the November Writing Contest.

Re: Human & Lupusad - Of Men and Wolves
With your editorial process, do you use another person as an editor and if so is it purely proof reading or are creative changes made by the editor? Just a question of comperison to editing ive had done in the past.Jonesy wrote:Next chapter isn't too far away, and is being proof-read.

The first shot is not the one that matters. The last shot determines everything.
