YAY! THANK YOU!

*Glomps Princes and Monitor.*

I'm happy you enjoyed it! Do you think I could have improved it in any way, though? I went to publish it to a magazine and it didn't get sent.


I don't have any specific advice about the story.

Just keep writing, and if you are serious about it as a career, keep submitting stories wherever you can.


Yes, ma'am!

All that remains is to show that biological systems replicate in such a way as to satisfy the minimal criteria required for evolution to apply to them, something which has already been adequately shown time and again. At this point, we've pretty much proven that not only can evolution happen, it pretty much must happen since it's basically impossible to prevent it from happening.

The greatest of NSG poems..

*to the tune of Frosty the Snowman*

Baidu the Spider
Was a jolly happy thing
As he trawled all day through Nationstates
With his eight legs made of win

Baidu the Spider
Is a fairytale they say
He was made of code
and the Mods all know
How he came to life one day

There must have been some magic
In that old silk hat they found
For when they placed it on his head
He began to dance around

Galloism's pretty memorable to me, mostly because of his sarcasm on NSGeneral.

Blaat is just cute and wooly.

The Holy Therns is very funny, and sophisticated as hell.

But the people who I think of most when I think of NS are the group I talk with almost every time I'm on NS: UIJ, Dalvius, the Fascistisk State, Silverakia, and the Islands of Versilia.
