So many people think that if you're writing fantasy, it means you can just make everything up as you go. Want to add a dragon? Add a dragon! Want some magic? Throw it in.

I believe in stopping work and eating lunch.
L'Wren Scott
The transfer of power is always a test of the constitutional system, a test of its strength.
Vladimir Putin
When people treat you mean, you dislike them for that, but not because of their person, who they are.

B. B King
The modern woman has a modern life, and most of us work. There's no time to change before we go out in the evening, so a dress should always look appropriate for day and night.
L'Wren Scott
Carpe diem, you know.
G-Dragon
