I've been around a bit. Grew up in Oldham, university at Keele and a few years living around Stoke-on-Trent, then a few more living in Bromley, South London.
I've tended to base my fiction in those areas, too.
DO NOT BLIND MSG ME! Sick of it.

If they commit war crime atrocities, damned right they should be brought to justice.
That's not "attacking american citizens", it's taking down mass murderers. Or are you saying all murders are now alright, if committed by american citizens?

Even though the mirror life couldn't cause damage to normal life, physically, it could consume all the non-mirrored nutrients, starving normal life to death, clog arteries and there's nothing normal life could do to combat it.
Creating a mirror bacteria could end life on the planet.

Oh, that's nothing. I'm calling my series the Omnium Cycle, but I don't introduce what Omnium actually is until the second book.
After that it does change all the rules, though.

What kind of an insult is "stupid normie bitch"? Why was it even called for? You seem to have some serious mental issues if you think posting insults at random posters just because they say something you disagree with is ok.
Since when was being "normal", whatever that means, considered an insult?
