Thoughts and Pondering @teddy-roosevelt - Tumblr Blog

when brandon sanderson talks about villains in his famous free youtube writing class video lectures he'll say 'what's the difference between gollum and sauron' and of course he means the villain that's present in the narrative and characterized in a way the audience can potentially relate to or sympathize with vs. the looming threatening anonymous far-off force (among other things). but every time he asks that i think 'well one of those guys tracked down frodo and got his ring back'

Don’t worry guys, fish don’t feel pain! When they’re harmed they only experience an unpleasant stimulus that they do their best to avoid any means necessary! It’s just a stimulus picked up by the nerves that’s sent to the spinal cord and the brain, it doesn’t count!
