Love styles. Love styles are modi operandi of how people love, originally developed by John Lee (1973,[1] 1988[2]).
He identified six basic love styles—also known as "colours" of love—that people use in their interpersonal relationships: Clyde Hendrick and Susan Hendrick of Texas Tech University expanded on this theory in the mid-1980s with their extensive research on what they called "love styles". They have found that men tend to be more ludic, whereas women tend to be storgic and pragmatic. Mania is often the first love style teenagers display. Relationships based on similar love styles were found to last longer. Styles[edit] Eros[edit] Akin to limerence, eros is literally the love of Beauty.
Erotic lovers view marriage as an extended honeymoon, and sex as the ultimate aesthetic experience. The advantage of erotic love is the sentimentality of it. Ludus[edit] Ludic lovers are players. Ludic lovers tend to view marriage as a trap and are the most likely of the love styles to commit infidelity. Art Student Hand-Illuminates, Binds a Copy of Tolkien's Silmarillion. This German art student, Benjamin Harff, decided, for his exam at the Academy of Arts, to do something only slightly ambitious — to hand-illuminate and bind a copy of J.R.R.
Tolkien’s Silmarillion. It took him six months of work. In very 21st century elvish-monk style, he hand-illuminated the text which had been printed on his home Canon inkjet printer. He worked with a binder to assemble the resulting book. I spent a year of my life, in my youth, fancying myself some sort of modern-day monastic scribe and doing this sort of Celtic knotwork-inspired illumination and calligraphy, so I am in awe of his talent. Interview with Benjamin Harff, upcoming Tolkien illustrator and creator of the Edel-Silmarillion Gareth Branwyn Gareth Branwyn is a freelancer writer and the former Editorial Director of Maker Media.

Here are my top ten words, compiled from online collections, to describe love, desire and relationships that have no real English translation, but that capture subtle realities that even we English speakers have felt once or twice.
As I came across these words I’d have the occasional epiphany: “Oh yeah! That’s what I was feeling...” Mamihlapinatapei (Yagan, an indigenous language of Tierra del Fuego): The wordless yet meaningful look shared by two people who desire to initiate something, but are both reluctant to start. Oh yes, this is an exquisite word, compressing a thrilling and scary relationship moment. It’s that delicious, cusp-y moment of imminent seduction. Yuanfen (Chinese): A relationship by fate or destiny. From what I glean, in common usage yuanfen means the "binding force" that links two people together in any relationship. But interestingly, “fate” isn’t the same thing as “destiny.” Retrouvailles (French): The happiness of meeting again after a long time. Adventure Time Presents: Marceline and the Scream Queens #1.

Pixar story artist Emma Coats has tweeted a series of “story basics” over the past month and a half — guidelines that she learned from her more senior colleagues on how to create appealing stories: #1: You admire a character for trying more than for their successes. #2: You gotta keep in mind what’s interesting to you as an audience, not what’s fun to do as a writer.
They can be v. different. #3: Trying for theme is important, but you won’t see what the story is actually about til you’re at the end of it. Now rewrite. #4: Once upon a time there was ___ . #5: Simplify. . #6: What is your character good at, comfortable with? #7: Come up with your ending before you figure out your middle. . #8: Finish your story, let go even if it’s not perfect. . #9: When you’re stuck, make a list of what WOULDN’T happen next. . #10: Pull apart the stories you like. . #11: Putting it on paper lets you start fixing it.
