Dark Night Full of Ninjas Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 If I'm not mistaken, I believe someone lives in Connecticut, which I also believe is closer to the shore. I'm not the best at geography. Anyone wanna confirm/refute? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fragile Bird Posted July 3, 2012 Author Share Posted July 3, 2012 I think it's just a matter of deciding what order to do: Onion, Ndrew, Ninja, Silver. Who wants to mail the book back to me (cheaper, if you can read fast) or off to the UK to Dracarya. I'll take the book to Belfast with me, otherwise.

Silver Spearwife Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 No, it's no closer to the shore than New Jersey is. Or, at least it depends on what town you're in. New York City's even closer (that's where Ndrew lives, right?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or should we start north and go south. FB would we send it back to you to take to TitanCon? Is that the plan?EDIT: NVM just saw tumblrSo, I think FB should send it south to Bai, who could send it to me and I'll send it to NY/NJ/CT and then back to FB?

deleted01 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Like I said on the Tumblr, playing it by ear might be an idea. If the book makes the rounds quickly enough, we should be able to judge whether or not it'll make it to me by TitanCon. The amount of time it took to get from H4R to FB was probably the same as it'd take to get to me from NYC. I've had packages delivered in less time :P I don't mind FB handing it over to me at TitanCon, or bringing it myself, whatever works the best when the time comes.Have you sorted the order out between yourselves? Makes no difference to me, whatever is quickest and cheapest for you guys :DNow to finish watching Blackwater, and head off to bed. Working 9-4 tomorrow :stillsick: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Spearwife Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 I'm thinking Florida, Ohio, Connecticut/New Jersey/New York, or Ohio, Connecticut/New Jersey/New York, Florida. Prices won't be much different, so speed is really what matters (incidentally, it'll be cheaper and potentially faster to send it to FB to give to Drac at Titancon, so it could start making the rounds in Britain/Europe).

deleted01 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Bai asked to have it after FB, and I think we should honour that, so your first order sounds good. If it's faster and cheaper to send it back to FB to bring to TitanCon, that's fine by me, it saves some poor sod mailing it to England.Also :kiss: for saying Britain/Europe, Silver :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howling Mad Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 YES!!! The reading begins. . . .Howling, do you want to start a thread in Literature on Fevre Dream, or do you want to wait til I've read a bit?I'll get one started Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckwheat Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Bai lives in Florida. Don't know about Silver. And I will have the book read and out the door in the next 2 days or so.I underestimated either you or the time you have to read ... Howling - you know we cannot join the discussion before we get the book, right? I fear that thread will be twice dead before the book reaches Europe. But it would be interesting to see it resurrected like 10 times. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckwheat Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 kissdbyfire, surely you do not suck at it! Come post something there (for about a half of us English is even not our first langage, so we cannot be much better, you know :)). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All Men Must Rhyme Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 I'll give it a go. It may take me a ridiculous amount of time to put something together though... And no laughing!!! :PEven if it's something random and childish, it's all good :P We rewrote nursery rhymes at some point I think lol. It's just a bit of fun at the end of the day.

Fragile Bird Posted July 4, 2012 Author Share Posted July 4, 2012 I'll give it a go. It may take me a ridiculous amount of time to put something together though... And no laughing!!! :PWe never, ever laugh at bards. Every attempt made to play with words is a worthy attempt. Try something simple - like ABAB, or even ABAC, which you see a lot here, or a limmerick, or have a go at some haikku. Haikku has 17 syllables, thre lines of 5-7-5. The third line should feel like a summary of the first 2. This is an excellent and helpful web site - http://www.wikihow.com/Write-a-Haiku-Poem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
