I was wondering if you are writing fiction and you make up cities, countries, words etc. if one continues to use italics all through the novel. I know if I were writing a story about a foreign country and writing it in English,...

the use of italics in made up places

12 responses

joyceshookery I believe italics are used to convey a character's internal thoughts. Another instance is if you are naming a publication, name of a movie or other such thing.

I've played at several casinos via Facebook. My favorite is Cleo's VIP Lounge (aka Virtual Spree). It's the most realistic, as far as playing goes. I play pennies or nickels. No other online casino lets you bet as you might in a...

joyceshookery I'm speechless with so many thoughts on your maturity and how we're friends but don't have much in common. I'd like more of your productive attitude in my being.

joyceshookery I hear you loud and clear, LetranKnight. Any game can keep me distracted for hours, and the slots have taken over more time than I want to admit. Thanks for your response.

joyceshookery Can a poor first impression be rectified? A person's situation or circumstances at the time didn't look so good. However, in the big picture, this person is quite nice, friendly, has good manners, dresses appropriately, etc. Can the first impression be erased?...

joyceshookery Thanks for your feedback! As much as computers have taken center stage, some people are living well without them and schools need to keep that in mind! I crochet a lot...especially when watching TV.

joyceshookery I remember those days! And I loved roller skating! LOL I put my skates on a few months ago and fell while trying to skate up my driveway. I was using my walker, so I was a woman with 12 wheels.

joyceshookery Yum! I also like chocolate covered pretzels. Snyder's makes some honey mustard pretzels. They're delicious, but really hard on my teeth (dentures), so I don't eat them very often. Thanks for your feedback.

joyceshookery It sounds like you're just as comfortable without the computer as you are with it. And I think I've lost my lifeline when I'm without it. Thank you for sharing.
