Guns and Swords, together at last....
May. 17th, 2007 06:11 pmI'm trying to get that revision of A Mention of Death done by the end of the week-end. (By that, I mean Sunday at midnight) This is the story where more than one person told me that I couldn't have a handgun in the same story with swords. Uh, what??????
This is one of my hot-button pet-peeves, by the way, the odd belief that guns and swords cannot possibly be concurrent. Did these people sleep through Western Civilzation?
Don't even get me started on humans with wings. (Yes, I am aware of the irony)
ETA: A friend and I were talking today about shapechangers. I'm from the science-based school of shape shifting, she's from the magic-based. Not entirely compatible, but interesting to discuss.
So I have hang-ups. I expect all of you do, too.
Don't you?
