Punctuation and capitalisation in poetry Note the author of the linked poem capitalizes 'I'. (although if i saw it lowercase, i wouldn't instantly recognize what it means.) |

Does this riddle abuse language to make it fit into verse? Thanks, the intention is the latter (the stone face bears many scars), I think I'll be able to fix it - replacing 'tore' with 'bore' should remove the ambiguity. |

Should I state my intentions/outline my structure at the beginning of an academic essay? Depending on length. Most professional academic papers contain a section called "Abstract" in the beginning, which does exactly that, but if it's a one-page essay, that may be unnecessary. |

Self/vanity publishing a game manual My hunch tells me one of numerous print-on-demand services but since I never used these myself, I can't provide anything to back that up. |

Is it true that men (in general) can't write female first-person? @Kit: I'd prefer some stats from incidental evidence. In the millions of books out there you're bound to find exceptions to every rule. Personally, from what I read, I don't recall reading any 1st person female protagonist not written by a woman myself. |

Is it true that men (in general) can't write female first-person? Can't or prefer not to? In our patriarchal society, in most books picking a female protagonist is usually a pointless quirk, rarely plot-centric unless it's some romance. If gender has no impact on plot, the default choice is male. [myself, a male writing this from perspective of finishing 116k words with 1st person female protagonist last fall.] |

Is it a good idea to first write the linear plot when writing a segmented screenplay? As examples of each of these executed right, I can recommend, for "become one" - Tarantino's "Pulp Fiction", completely chopped up and not even temporally in sequence within threads(!), artistic disorder; "Separate but with a theme" - "Intolerance", a 1916 by Griffith, which has parallels of the four stories follow in sequence, underlining similarities; and for "Separate stories": "Four Rooms" by 4 different directors, where the stories are not cut up at all, but happen all one after another, bound only by protagonist and location, and the movie benefits from 4 climaxes instead of one. |
