Note To Self
Inspirational stuff for Jesterverse, and other tidbits as I see fit. Will probably make next to no sense, but what else is new?

Thought it might be useful: a list of some novels with an average number of chapters & word count per chapter. source
#this is actually reassuring#bc i always feel like my chapters are too short#i try to keep them around at least the 2k mark but sometimes i feel like i just word vomit for padding#so hitchhiker's being 1.3k on average is such a relief

Okay, this is in incredibly petty nitpick, but: if you’re writing a fantasy setting with same-sex marriage, a same-sex noble or royal couple typically would not have titles of the same rank - e.g., a prince and a prince, or two queens.
It depends on which system of ranking you use, of course (there are several), but in most systems there’s actually a rule covering this scenario: in the event that a consort’s courtesy title being of the same rank as their spouse’s would potentially create confusion over who holds the title by right and who by courtesy, the consort instead receives the next-highest title on the ladder.
So the husband of a prince would be a duke; the wife of a queen, a princess; and so forth.
(You actually see this rule in practice in the United Kingdom, albeit not in the context of a same-sex marriage; the Queen’s husband is styled a prince because if he were a king, folks might get confused about which of them was the reigning monarch.)
The only common situation where you’d expect to see, for example, two queens in the same marriage is if the reigning monarchs of two different realms married each other - and even then, you’d more likely end up with a complicated arrangement where each party is technically a princess of the other’s realm in addition to being queen of her own.
You’ve gotta keep it nice and unambiguous who’s actually in charge!

it’s been almost 420 years but to me giordano bruno saying ‘maiori forsan cum timore sententiam in me fertis quam ego accipiam’ (eng: you who pronounce my sentence are in greater fear than i who receive it) just prior to being burned at the stake for heresy (read: free thought) remains the most sensational display of big dick energy ever exhibited by a man

know the difference
It has come to my attention that many people mistake wyverns for dragons, so here’s a post to help you remember
Dragon: 4 legs, 2 wings
Wyvern: 2 legs, 2 wings
Drake: 4 legs, flightless
Wyrms: long snake like body with no appendages, can also appear as a traditional Chinese dragon with 4. Legs and no wings yet can fly
Amphithere: 0 legs 2 wings, can be feathered
Lindwurms: 2 legs, 0 wings, long body
Luck dragon: 4 legs, no wings, can fly, long body, furry with dog like face
Komodo dragon: 4 legs, no wings, real
Bearded dragon: 4 legs, 0 wings, often kept as pets
