    kaylar wrote a new post, A few of my Super Powers 7 years, 7 months ago

    I realised when I was just a kid that I had ‘super powers’.    It was very creepy in a way because it was as if I could see things that ‘weren’t there’ and ‘hear things’ no one else did.

    These are the super p […]

    • Wow, reading on, I realized that you are a very gifted person for having those qualities or super powers as you call it.

      Indeed listening can be a power by itself. Even knowing when to be silent is a power also.

      Observing too is a super power. These 3 are what I should learn to have. I am not observant, maybe because I always hurry. I don’t even sometimes observe how a person is before I speak my mind. Now I know, I should be.

      Listening, I sometimes just blurt out without letting the other person finish what he is talking about , so much so that argument will ensue. This is true with my hubby and me.

      Thank you for making me realize I can have those super powers too. 🙂

    kaylar wrote a new post, Less is More; the Shortening of Word Count 7 years, 7 months ago

    Years ago, authors were paid by the word.  So, more words more money.   People expected a few pounds of a novel and a few days or weeks of reading.   In those days, More was More.

    • One can write three hundred words but still it is concise. Short and sweet!

      • The interesting thing is that where a few years ago writing 1000 words was no problem, today, one becomes so concise that a topic is covered in 280 words, requiring one to go back and add.

      • Yes, one can write a 300 word article yet it already has taken all the important aspects.

        It is challenging to write more than 500 words. You must have the experience for your topic and very familiar with what you are writing for you to write that long.

        • In the old days people were in the verbose habit. They went around and around before making the point. Today it is very boring to read that kind of stuff.

    • I hate airheads or braggarts. I distance from the, the moment I notice that he is one.

      You can never win over an airhead. It is already inculcated in his head that he is right and no one can beat him.

      Sad, that this attitude is what people don’t like in a person. he is being laughed at or hated when he turns his back to the people he was with.

    In the early 1900s, acting in motion pictures was scorned by the elite.  True actors ‘walked the boards’, that is, appeared on stage.

    • Like they say you never know what you are loosing until you loose it. It is very sad to think that her friemds could actually treat a fellow friend the way they did. If they would only be a bit considerate.
      But that is usually a problem when you live like 2 3 in a house or apartment that is bound to happen. There are those who will feel like they arw superior to everyone else. So they may take it that everybody else should do chores but they shouldn’t, that attitude is very annoying. I would expect everyone to take responsibility in the house and also help out whenever need arises. It was unfortunate that keery was no more. The thing is now they are the ones who will have to live with the guilt of doing her wrong. Kerry did her part and she doesn’t have to live with any guilt.

    There are some actors/actresses you see all the time.  They go from this serial to that one, they go from that movie to another, and you keep seeing them.   It’s not because they are so talented, its because p […]

    • The reasons why all those gone are well explained, yes I agree many we like to see back in movie , but seen no more , attitude matters a lot, even in school students may have special request as to who would teach them because they do not like the teacher assigned to them, There was also a movie actress in Ph she was so famous in her youthful years but when she grew mature her attitude changed and many complained and wanted to remove as member of the casts of the movie. Those having attitude problem may also have their own problems ,lol./

    I do agree with Bestwriter.  It seems to be a kind of ‘trick’ in a way. For example, suppose a writer has $10 and puts in for a redemption on the 9th of April.   The writer is then doesn’t get it and is told on the 12th of April that this item about Obama care or about the floods in Australia or about some other factual item was ‘plagiarised’.  …[Read more]
