Writing with archaic personal pronouns is hard
Writing grammatically correct Shakespeare Early Modern English and regular Modern English…hell just writing in general is a huge pain.

NYC ACC is underfunded, corrupt management and nasty “shelters” where over estimated 17,000 to 45,000 animals PER YEAR are put down. Most are surrendered and...

I really like this play I'm writing
Everyone is so damn witty. Innuendo everywhere.
Really the dialogue from deadpan to frothy is developing very quickly and so is the plot, which is nice for a change as conflict has never been my strongest suit, I’d rather just make people laugh. Being given a framework to work with according to the original folktale helps there, but I’ve already decided there will be some plot...

Arethusa x Crépuscule
I want to cross this rose ‘Crépuscule’ with this rose, ‘Arethusa’ and plan to this summer, after checking on my rose seeds in the fridge today I know it’s gotta be done.
They are tea-noisette and china hybrids from the early 20th century, both introduced in a two year span between 1903 and 1904 and both are certainly representative of what was in fashion at the time....

Figured It Out
Benedict Cumberbatch’s voice is a slightly less affected (modern) George Sanders.
While I find my own speaking voice rather annoying, I have been told I actually have a pretty reading voice (forever the narrator and stage directions reader) and sound great on radio, but man if I had that voice I’d be reading everything unnecessarily out loud…
Yes, dear did you want to order the...
