Awesome! :D So very happy to hear that! :D And yeah, I can tell from the way I write myself how much challenging myself constantly helps me improve in the areas that I otherwise lack. Or just don't include at all. Dialogue definitely is(was?) one of them! :D
Yepp! Each option you pick sprouts an entirely new world! :D
I have this theory that all emotion is based in happy. Sad is the lack of happy, angry is happiness lost or betrayed, hurt is happiness once had and lost, loneliness is happy left unfulfilled etc etc, but I am loving the idea of smiler style totally twisted happy ;) oh shit I could even write a story of the world the smiler came from.... let's see what the weekend brings (although I am off to watch a movie in a cave tonight and far too excited so it may end up cave themed!)
Hmmm. That's definitely an interesting concept. Now I'm definitely curious about what you'll come up with.
