Fictional Problems!

Fictional Problems!

Ever since you all oh-so-kindly helped me with the gryphon fiasco, I've been wondering if anyone else had nonexistent problems. So, lo and behold, here is the place to share them!

Well, I'm not having any luck finding the Vorpal Blade, so all I have to hunt the Jabberwocky with are a Vowel Blade and A Pronoun Spear, which are only useful against Were-Nouns. Does anyone have any idea of where the Vorpal Blade might be?

Last time I checked my Vorpal Blade Radar, it was stolen by Jupiter to defeat some rouge giants. Jupiter is currently in Naples, Italy, where he is solving a little misunderstanding between some cyclopses and some trolls, so I assume the Vorpal Blade is there.

Good luck!

Hello, Snatcher, but it is cyclopes, not cyclopses, for your information.

Well, someone anonymously e-mailed me an executable file with no indication of what it was supposed to do. When I (foolishly) executed it my computer cybercreated a REAL DINOSAUR EGG!!! What do I do??? Before it hatches??? HELP!!!

Here is an excerpt from a book I once read that may help:

I, Harriet Tumbledown, have myself dealt with executable files. The result is not pretty, but here are 5 tips on how to survive it.

1. Inform authorities.

2. If there are no authorities, do not attempt to destroy the egg. That will speed up the hatching process.

3. Prep a room for egg hatching purposes.

4. Stock up on food for both carnivores and herbivores. It does not hurt to be safe.

5. Read parenting books so you can raise your Dino without mental trauma.

What does 'That is actually half true' mean?

It means that a fictional crocodile is actually haunting my mind and dreams.

Oh, then they must be from my buddy Tico. He believes the world should know Spanish.

@ Abigail A.-- I love that book! I think you should contact Arthur Penhaligon just to be safe. Have you finished the series yet?

My characters are under the misapprehension that I, as their author, have no control over their lives and personalities, and are now creating havoc in my fictional universe.

Let it be known that this is entirely true.

I overheard my parents having this conversation:

Mom: "The economy is just so bad right now."

Dad: "I know, we're going to have to let one of them go."

M: "But are you sure it has to be her?"

D: "She is the only one who'd be able to handle it. We'll send her to Aunt Myrtle's tomorrow."

What do I do?
