 Bon Patron will save your life

What is it?

  •  a free grammar checker that was developed by French professors
  •  not extremely sophisticated and won’t catch all of your errors 
  • but WILL prevent you from making dumb conjugation or agreement mistakes. 
  • MUCH BETTER THAN MICROSOFT WORD

What does it look like?

What’s it do?

  • it marks what mistakes you made (writes them out and you can also hover over them - I couldn’t screenshot the entire list because it is VERY THOROUGH) 
    • (I feel like I need to mention this is an automatically generated example, I’m bad at french but I’m not that bad)
  • says what type of mistake it is 
  • and what you can do to fix them.

What do I do with it?

  • Obviously don’t rely on it 100%, but if you’ve been staring at an essay for five hours it’s so nice to be able to run it through and have it catch the article you misused in the middle of the fourth paragraph. 
  • make sure you check again after correcting the errors because sometimes new ones will be flagged 
  • double check your work, sometimes it suggests corrections that you don’t need to make (since it’s a computer program and you’re a person)
  • BUT GO FORTH AND IMPROVE YOUR FRENCH GRADES (& share the good news)

How to make a character's death sadder

the-right-writing:

  1.  Don’t have them die of old age after a long, fulfilling life. Many people don’t even think of this as sad (note that this can still work if you have enough of the other factors).
  2.  Leave one of their major goals unfinished. The more enthusiastic they are about completing the goal, the sadder.
  3.  Give them strong relationships with other characters.
  4.  Make them fight against whatever is causing their death. Their ultimate loss is sadder if they struggle.
  5.  Kill them in the middle of their character arc.
  6.  Don’t describe their funeral in detail. Maybe it’s just me, but I find that long descriptions of funerals kill the sadness.

That’s enough Satan’s publisher…

>B)

7. If possible, try to kill them off in the middle of the story, so we had time to like them and we will have time to let the loss settle in.

8. Also, place surviving characters in a situation where having the deceased person there would help them get out. You can choose whether you will point this fact out or if you want the audience to make the connection themselves.

If I may make a suggestion for having your character point out a deceased character’s helpfulness: have them offhandedly say “Oh, ___, you can handle this” then realize they’re dead.

You monsters.
