Not only ado I share your response to Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy's involvment in Star Wars, I'm annoyed that it was picked up, while Patty Jenkins Star Wars Rogue Squadron movie was cancelled.

Right on. We don't hate women, we hate lousy storytelling.

I also have grown to disdain when younger more "hip" creatives seem to disregard the work of all who came before. Case in point Ms. Obaid-Chinoy's comments seem to imply a women never had anything to do with Star Wars behind the camera, when there has been some great work already done by Deborah Chow, Bryce Dallas Howard, and Katie ( Daughter of George) Lucas.

I only just noticed your username. Welcome to Dancing Lawn! I suggest that, looking at the names of our major sections, you search one of them for specific topics that interest you. It will be cool if you re-activate some topic which hasn't been active in years.

Since I'm notified that you are now following me......

I do NOT ask you to reveal YOUR actual identity, but I'll tell you mine. My actual name is Joseph Ravitts, long A in the last name. Born in Illinois 72 years ago, I served a full career in the U.S. Navy, and I now live in Colorado.

That's awesome. I'm from the UK.

I passed through there very briefly, traveling to and from Navy assignments.

Happy birthday dear Copperfox. Many happy wishes to you today.

Thank you. I'm glad to be still ambulatory and alert.

Copperfox here, alias Joseph Ravitts. My email server is crashed indefinitely. Are you willing to give me a phone number I can text, in case I need to reach the administration outside forum channels?

"How did you get in here?", asked Marietta. \\ "I've found a secret passageway", said Emeth, "I guess Rishda had no idea he set one up."

Not clear. Are you saying that RISHDA didn't know about RISHDA creating a secret passage??

Well, at least Rishda wasn't aware of it. It's likely that the construction workers built the secret passage without his knowledge.

And of course, I guess there will be no more secrets.

Narrative remains very good; but "the devil is in the details." Middle of the latest post: "There was no hasty notion in his actions....."

Surely you meant to say, "--no hasty MOTION"?

Thanks for the correction. I hate autocorrect sometimes, especially when it is wrong and I miss small things like that.
Copperfox
A detail I didn't notice before: early in Post 7 of your story, you used the word "glib" as a noun. "Glib" is an adjective. You must have intended a different word. Maybe "--the gibe"?
SimonW
SimonW
Glib was used correctly, as a way of speaking but I may have gotten it mixed up with gibe as you said. I shall rectify this post haste in a fastidious manner, Copperfox. I have to say I am doing this story on the fly without typing it first on Word so I may show my autistic side whilst being rushed to put down posts quickly. Sorry for the mistakes and inconvenience on my behalf.

And am grateful for that. Never said your input was a hinderance or bother, just letting you know the issues of my own shortcomings. I do not want to be a person of ego to think I am perfect…nobody is. That is just a way of life unfortunately.

Hello my fellow Narnians! I am happy to have found this place! I am the white dove, happy to meet you! For Aslan!

Near the end of your most recent Last Battle post, I failed until just now to notice a modernism.

Emeth should never address any woman as "baby."

I don't know if readers would care about that now.

If they did, what would he referred to her as? "Sweet one?"
Copperfox
Copperfox
Sweet one, fair one, beauteous one, radiant one, fairest of maidens.

But your birthday's a harmless enough piece of information! So have a happy one.
