Ismi...

Post by Bladerun »

Hello everyone! My name is Charles (Ismi... Charles :D ), Im a long time Dune fan(yes because of the David Lynch 1984 Movie), though I havent finished the first book yet, I AM working on it and intend to atleast read the originals... I havent decided if I want to read the others from the reactions Ive seen on the board. I was inspired to ready the book by the 1984 movie, which is a point in its favor I think.

I love the complexity and detail of the universe that Frank Herbert has created and I hope to expand my knowledge of it here!

Welcome twice welcome Ismi!

You don't need to read the hack's shit, unless you want to join the cherem of hate, but really I don't advise it, it's the equivalent of the stick man cartoons for literature... You'd accept it from a bundling kid who's doing it to please, not someone who fancies himself a writer trying to force you into thinking no one can do better than him.

Edit to add: Didn't even pay attention to his sig -- should have seen that right off the bat. Oh well. Hopefully no jerks this time around. :whistle:

Nah you're right to point it out.

It does sound like "hi, is me !"
