The Vaguely Circular Team:

General Content Warning

The internet is not a safe place for any children under the age of 13. If you are under the age of 13, you should probably get off the computer and go read a good book (I recommend the Three Musketeers); unless you are here with your parents' express permission, in which case they are responsible for any new knowledge you come into possession of. If you are over 13 and do not watch movies or read books that would get a PG-13 rating then you will probably run into something offensive, and may not be entirely cut out for a speculative fiction author.

The views and opinions expressed in guest posts are solely those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views held by Vaguely Circular and its creators. Please also bear in mind that there is no single correct way to create art, and there is no single definition of "good." If you find yourself violently disagreeing with something and want to educate the world, please contact us about writing a guest post of your own providing the opposite side of the issue.
