Hello and welcome to TheKnow Database Round-Up 10! Thank you so much to the people who have become members since last time.
Here is the latest submission to the database:
Miscellaneous
Viewing Bodies After Death: SCFrankles has seen bodies after death. (One relative after they had died in hospital and another relative, after they had died in hospital and again two days later at their funeral). Contact with the dead doesn't seem to be common any more (at least in the UK) so she thinks that her experiences might be useful. It's several years ago now and her memories have faded a little but she hopes to be able to answer questions about appearance, and her reactions and perceptions.
If this would be useful for your writing research, please contact the submitter directly by sending her a note. If you want to make a submission to the database yourself, the information is on our profile.
Requests
We’ve had a request from ArthurTheBraveOne! (Please excuse my excitement but it’s been a while ^^)
He states:
“For a story of mine, I've had character take some pretty harsh injuries. Now, just to make sure I'm doing it at least somewhat believably, does anyone here have any experience walking around with a (or multiple) broken rib(s)?”
If you can help our requester, please contact him directly via note!
And if there’s anyone else who needs some personal experience or knowledge which isn’t already in the database, leave a comment here on this journal. We’ll gather all the requests together and put them out in another journal, asking if anyone can help. Though if someone reading this sees a request in the comments they can help with, please feel free to contact the requester immediately.
You can make a request at any time—leave a comment on whatever is the current journal or on the group profile, or send us a note. It isn’t necessary to be a member or a watcher to make a request, but it would be lovely if you joined in.
Favourites
If the database or requests system helps you in writing something, we would like to put the finished article in our favourites. So, if you post your piece on dA and would like it to feature in our collection, please send us a link! We’re thinking about featuring the stories in our journals too.
Watching TheKnow
A note for anyone passing by: we understand some people may not want their details permanently on show in the database, but may feel comfortable talking to requesters privately via note. In that case, please consider watching TheKnow so you can keep an eye on the journals and what’s being looked for.
