Speaking about the dresses and style, I've come across mentions that Penelope spends money on jewels and dresses yet can't get out without a knight whom all of them don't see her as the a member of the Eckhart. Whether this is fact or fandom, there's no denying that the staff are against Penelope. Whose to say they never deliver or put away the dresses in her room and making Penelope (Og or S) to dress up in simple dresses or this is dobe by orders from someone else. After all, Derek "oversees" her and a flashback to Yvonne (when he is approached to a girl with similar fashion) they are dressed similar.

Another sign of Penelope being caged.

Oh my god... yes.

Of course, Penelope would just make a commotion until they actually brought them to her room, seeing as it could be seen as the servants stealing from their lady and above their place in the duke's eyes.

However, Derrick probably does some things like cut her money off, or the servants ruin her expensive dresses.

Skip Google for Research

As Google has worked to overtake the internet, its search algorithm has not just gotten worse.  It has been designed to prioritize advertisers and popular pages often times excluding pages and content that better matches your search terms 

As a writer in need of information for my stories, I find this unacceptable.  As a proponent of availability of information so the populace can actually educate itself, it is unforgivable.

Below is a concise list of useful research sites compiled by Edward Clark over on Facebook. I was familiar with some, but not all of these.

⁂

Google is so powerful that it “hides” other search systems from us. We just don’t know the existence of most of them. Meanwhile, there are still a huge number of excellent searchers in the world who specialize in books, science, other smart information. Keep a list of sites you never heard of.

www.refseek.com - Academic Resource Search. More than a billion sources: encyclopedia, monographies, magazines.

www.worldcat.org - a search for the contents of 20 thousand worldwide libraries. Find out where lies the nearest rare book you need.

https://link.springer.com - access to more than 10 million scientific documents: books, articles, research protocols.

www.bioline.org.br is a library of scientific bioscience journals published in developing countries.

http://repec.org - volunteers from 102 countries have collected almost 4 million publications on economics and related science.

www.science.gov is an American state search engine on 2200+ scientific sites. More than 200 million articles are indexed.

www.pdfdrive.com is the largest website for free download of books in PDF format. Claiming over 225 million names.

www.base-search.net is one of the most powerful researches on academic studies texts. More than 100 million scientific documents, 70% of them are free

List of answers to “so why are you avoiding me?”

“Because every time I see you, all I can think about is kissing you and I don’t know how I’m supposed to feel about that.”

“Because I think I might like you and that thought in and of itself terrifies me.”

“Because you’ve got me feeling some type of way and I really, really hate it and I wish that feeling would just leave me alone.”

“Because I feel like I can’t be myself around you anymore.”

“Because I don’t want to do anything I’d end up regretting because I couldn’t control myself…”

“Because I don’t want to say something I’m gonna regret.”

“Because you drive me fucking insane.”

“Because I’m worried I might end up committing murder if I keep hanging around you.” 

“I’m not avoiding you. Who says I’m avoiding you?” 

“You’re the one avoiding me.” 

“Because I feel like you like me and that makes me uncomfortable.” 

“I wouldn’t be here entertaining you if I was avoiding you.”

death the kid is such a… weird character. i cant think of another character like him because he’s so weird. like, he’s the son of the grim reaper with horrible ocd and perfectionism issues and also he dresses like a preppy goth in full tuxedo but he also rides a skateboard named beelzebub and does cool tricks on it whenever presented the opportunity also he has guns. none of those character traits sound like they belong to the same person. hes somehow both the coolest and lamest character in the show.

Feelings Wheel

This is the feelings wheel by Geoffrey Roberts, shown to me by my therapist. My initial thought was, "what amazing synonyms to use for diverse emotional vocabulary!"

More than that, this wheel is great for understanding your characters inner motivations and reactions to situations. For example, if a character constantly feels helpless, then their overarching characteristics will be that they are fearful.

Characters who are less emotionally aware may use words and act in the inner most circle. Those much more aware of their emotions may describe themselves or express and use words from the outer most circle.

Hopefully you guys find this as helpful as I did! Let me know down in the comments.

Happy Writing!

I had fun making this. It's hammered and oxidised copper, cleaned and polished with a sapphire crystal navette.

Words to replace said, except this actually helps

I got pretty fed up with looking for words to replace said because they weren’t sorted in a way I could easily use/find them for the right time. So I did some myself.
