A Hero With A Thousand Faces: Beginning

@vitruvianman: "In this article series, I will try to explain the fundementals of story writing and script writing. The name of the series comes from Joseph Campbell's book.

Do you remember Jaqen H'ghar from Game of Thrones?..."

Amazon, the small online book retailer turned mega cooperation selling groceries and TV shows, has put out an RFP (request for proposals) – to cities nationwide! To those not in the architecture or planning industry, this is not “typical”.

My Love Letter to New York

@noor.makkiya: "I grew up in Baghdad which I consider to be an urban city. True my house had a front yard and my parents used the car to drop me at the Ilwiya social club but nevertheless Baghdad did posses numerous urban features inherited from various historical periods, the complexity of Baghdad historical fabric and the multilayered culture translated in its buildings were the reasons why I wanted to become an architect and always live in the city..."

Steeminator is on a Mission : Operation Youtube, Trending Section

@steeminator3000: "As a professional internet user I always tend to avoid the trending section in any social media tool I use. However even I couldn't avoid some of trends happening in Youtube. I assure you if you are a person who enjoys creative and actually interesting things these videos are going to increase your ebola levels in 1 to 9000 in seconds.

Thanks for your support @rabeel :) Lot's of great authors this week. Make sure to check out their posts as well.

nice blog

Thank you @drmor!

I know this would add a layer of work, but I think it would be useful and interesting if @sndbox would add a few introductory words letting readers (and other sndboxers) know what was particularly interesting or valuable about a few of the posts that got upvoted.

A good suggestion @kenfinkel! We'll experiment with this for next week and try to make the list more legible and browse-able, thanks!
