Czanos can't fool me. I know you read all the library copies of Maxim.
A lot of people describe Scalzi’s Old Man's War novels as military science fiction, but I would classify its sequel Zoë’s Tale as a space opera. It’s a story about, well, Zoë, a teenage girl whose parents are invited to take leadership roles in building a colony on a new planet.

It's that 100% that throws me. If your mean just words then that’s one thing, but if your talking whole sentences or paragraphs, well, that’s another thing altogether. As a music lover and writer I could take the same chords from say, "House of the Rising Sun", and make a new song out of it, but every thing else has to change with it, for it to be "my" song.

I loathe English.
Well then why don't you go find a Brandon Sanderson forum in Mandarin?
Seriously, though, don't knock a language with far more material published than all other languages put together, and twice the vocabulary of the nearest competitor, and practically all the scientific research. It's like people who say they hate America and its government, while taking for granted all the freedoms and services their country and government provide them.
Oh my wow. I just looked them up and like . . . I've had them backwards for . . . quite some time. ha ha. Thanks for that.
