Why don't you write the UVoD in French, your own language?

UNSPEAKABLE VAULT (Of Doom)
IMHO English is better adapted to this kind of direct humour (and can potentially reach a larger number of readers). It uses less words to reach the same effect than in french. Thanks to my editors (Denis Villafranca and Paul of Cthulhu) , my somehow poor english is regulary corrected.

How do I become a game designer or write for games?

Christy Marx: scriptwriter and game designer: writing FAQ pa...
For a long time, I had was hard put to know how to answer this question. Now I've begun to see trends and a tendency for the field to become settled into niches. I don't necessarily think this is a good thing, but it is what it is. Let me say up front, that I use the word "game" as shorthand for any form of interactive entertainment, but I would also like to see the field move way beyond the limitations of the word "game".

Why French polish?

faq/order
O.K. Here's what's wrong with French polish. It's not as smooth and shiny as glass (usually). It is so thin that it gets scratched just by looking at it. It degrades where it comes in repeated contact with skin and perspiration. It is labor-intensive to apply. Now here's what's right with French polish. It has a warm, non-industrial appearance that is compatible with, and enhances, the organic nature of the underlying wood.

Are French and US electricity the same?

Paris Frequently Asked Questions
If you are about to travel to Paris, do not forget to pack the right adapters for your small appliances. Otherwise, you will get yourself into trouble. Electricity in France-and more generally in Europe-comes out of the electrical outlets at 230-240 volts. In the US, the voltage is 110 volts.

Did Tabitha King write Rose Madder, Gerald's Game, and Dolores Claiborne?

alt.books.stephen-king FAQ
No. There is no real evidence for this, and a lot of the group find it to be an insulting question. To suggest she did is to suggest that Stephen uses immoral business practises. The usual line of argument is, "These books have strong female leads and the women in them are well characterised... this means Stephen couldn't have written them."

Can I write stories about your characters/use them in my video game/movie/etc?

The Art of Chelsea Brown
I am always quite flattered when I get an e-mail asking if someone can use my characters for some project of theirs, however I must always politely decline these requests.

Why write a new game engine for Starcraft? What's wrong with Starcraft.exe?

Dark Nova - FAQ
Starcraft's game engine was never really intended for add-ons and modifications. Some effort was put forth in the form of the Starcraft Campaign Editor, but true campaigns and new content require special tools developed by the community. Furthermore, some things just can't be done with the engine, like adding units. By writing an engine from scratch, we avoid the pitfalls of the existing architecture and can add whatever features we want.

Why do you write mysteries?

Laurie R. King, Mystery Writer
From a life of God to a life of crime, you mean? Yes and no. What interested me most during my theological studies was the Hebrew Bible or Old Testament, which is made up of stories. In them you often find a peculiar importance laid on a word or phrase, or in the absence of some fact one would have thought essential, which act as clues pointing to the underlying meaning. The Old Testament in particular teaches essential truth through the stories of men and women.

And have I mentioned, write?

The Official P/T Collective Archive
Seriously, the best thing you can do to improve your craft is to write constantly. Have writer's block? Don't moan about it; write through it. Go ahead and write badly, just keep going. You can always cut out the parts that suck later. The important thing is to keep working at it. Repeat steps 1-6. And in addition to writing, try reading. Everything. Because you learn as much from reading as you do from writing. Especially if you read good stuff.
