Open Thread: Oracle Hotline

For this week, what's something you've searched for/researched for your current WiPs, if anything? Here's one for each of mine:

--Possible names for a sex toy shop
--What sagebrush smells like
--Synonyms for "different" (there are surprisingly few options!)
--Everything I looked up for my Big Bang would be spoilers, so I can't do that, but I finished it, got it betaed, and submitted it this week--I'm very happy! I hope your research and your writing has been going well!

XD Knitting stitches! Knitting patterns! Lots! Of! Knitting!

And embroidery patterns on Tang dynasty women's clothing. As well as how they're sewn and what's worn underneath them.

Aravel, the main character on my WIP, is a Very Serious Knitter so I needed to know what he'd consider challenging. Versus what I'd consider challenging as I'm a very new knitter. *grin*

The writing's been going very well. I'm at that 2/3 to 3/4 done area where I seriously just want the story done but it's a long story so I'm not there yet. Not at all. *sighs dramatically about Not Done yet*

Oh well, I'll get more writing after I get home and then I'll get there eventually.

Good luck on your writing!

Oooh, I believe I've heard about the character who loves knitting before! It's always an interesting challenge to write someone who does something you enjoy but is MUCH better at it, isn't it? It's a different challenge from writing something you don't know at all...

I know that point, I know that point so very well... *sighs with you*
