That definitely clears everything up, and has me really rethinking this a bit. It does fit the idea of the dog being overly protective of a particular character... But there are a lot of other ways for that to happen I'm sure, so yeah, this definitely makes me give this a rethink.

Ah, okay, that's good to know, and was a major reason I started this thread. Oh uh, don't let me impose on you! Please take your time.

Ah, I see. I do admit I'm extrapolating a lot from a grooming video, and that was how that animal was found in that case. If you can, what do you mean by overconfidence? Is that just being more aggressive with strangers, or...? That just sounds really odd to me because fighting dogs have been...

That makes sense, sadly enough. Okay, I think this would on the "pro" end of the torture versus starvation spectrum you introduced, but I'll need to think carefully about how that shows up. In story I was imagining the dog was originally found tied to a post somewhere, and the fighting...

Oh... good point. I would say in this case say that this is the kind of dog that was a direct fighter, not bait(not sure what that would be in that world). The main thing is the dog has experience directly fighting other animals, and has physical evidence of that from certain wounds on their...

So, I have an upcoming story that heavily features a dog who used to be in dog fights and other nasty stuff before being adopted by a loving family. The major question I wanted to ask is whether there are dogs that can be okay around children but not adults in a context like that? I bring this...

That makes sense. It was valuable for me on the prior board, but it just isn't worth it if it will be that much of a headache for the reasons you've discussed.

Am I right to assume then that this site will not be resurrecting the erotic workshop from the previous iteration?

I'd say a thriller is more focused on tension and less on fear than horror, but I can see how the boundary between the two is rather thin.

Just noticed it was absent, and that feels odd? I say this because I think people should know what they're in for before reading in that case, and titles don't always communicate that.

I think I was on the old forum for at least a decade, if not longer. I have writing there that goes back to when I was in highschool, maybe even earlier, and yet, didn't end up trying to save virtually any of it, as it was mostly excerpts that didn't amount to much. I know the main appeal of the...

*steps in trap* I'm currently writing a lich in a fanfic! But seriously, good to see the forum got threads like this going already.

And here I am! I doubt I'll have the same user icon I used to, but I'm glad I made the move.
