          	If any of you are questioning what's with the weird Cover and "final chapter" on my book, it's because it's been stolen by what I'm assuming is a mirror bot.  The site has no way to report these things, or get the stolen copy taken down, which really sucks.  
          	
          	So, the only thing I've found that I can do is change the cover and tell everyone that it's been stolen, so the bot will copy it over to the site it's using to steal my work.
          	
          	I plan on unpublishing that book soon, as the bot seems to be entirely connected with that one book.  (Not deleting it, in case I need to prove that I wrote it.)
          	
          	Do I plan on re-publishing the story?  Yes!  My plan is to make an entirely new book for it, and see if that helps it not get stolen again by the same bot.
          	
          	It'll take a little while though, as I'm trying to be cautious, and I want to do a bit of editing before re-publishing, as most of those chapters are over a year old.

Do y'all think it would be possible to swordfight with a scorpion?  For example, if the scorpion was giant and got it's stabber tail wrapped around a sword and started waving it around, could you challenge it to a duel?

Actually, I'm not sure I could train a lobster....  But they do urinate from their faces.  Interesting things you can learn.  Perhaps I could use that to my advantage.  Make my opponent oddly uncomfortable before our match by forcing them to watch my lobster urinate from it's face.

Upon further research, I don't believe that a scorpion is large enough to hold anything more than a toothpick.  They also can not be kept in large numbers or be trained.
            
            Perhaps a crab though.  They may not be venomous, but they are much bigger in size and have pincers.  Or a lobster!

You could train an unstoppable army with this knowledge!  A legion of tiny, possibly venomous, sword fighting scorpions!

That feel when you reread something you wrote two months ago and realize it's garbage, but you also know that if you attempt to rewrite it you will get caught in an endless loop of rewrites, therefore never moving on in the story so you just make tiny edits to try to fix it, but you know deep down that they will do nothing against flaming pile of crap you have created.

HnnnN-   My chickens keep trying to establish hierarchy through murder-

They keep pecking each other as a way to assert dominance.  One's been pecked half to death and two of the others are afraid to be within a few inches of another chicken.
