Hello Nonny.

We love you back!

To answer your question, the reason we have the disclaimer is to remind people that this blog is here to offer writing advice only, not real life advice. While the use of our advice might not be as dangerous as misusing the advice from ScriptMedic, or have as many repercussions on us as there would be on ScriptShrink for giving real life advice, or even likely open us to hate mail or trolls like some of the other ScriptX Family blogs, we do need to keep in mind that we are providing writing advice. Keep in mind, we have answered questions about poisonous plants and flowers and we have discussed the use of various floral equipment which can be quite dangerous (most florists cut themselves at least a few times even after they are used to working with the equipment and flowers).

In some versions of the disclaimer, we point out that we cannot be held responsible for bouquets that don’t live up to one’s imagination or for mistranslated messages sent by flower language bouquet.

We try to provide the same level of suggestions to our followers that we would provide to a client in our shops, but in our shops, we know what is currently in season and available, what will hold up in current conditions, etc. If someone uses the information in slightly different situations in fiction, then it should still work (although fragile blossoms in snow will require some sort of magic for us to believe), but in a different climate or season in real life, those flowers might not work at all and could leave someone feeling rather bitter towards us.

Finally, we occasionally offer some gardening writing advice even though that is not either of our specialities because we are the closest thing available in the ScriptX Family. Again, if someone writes that they planted Veteran’s Honor roses in southern California then there’s no problem with that. That variety does well in large parts of southern California. But there are microclimates where it might not do so well and if someone spends a lot of money planting them all over in the wrong microclimate, they should have sought someone in their area to get real life advice instead.

I hope that answers your question about why we try to make it clear that we are writing advice.

It’s cool, Anon! It’s not rude at all.

Unfortunately, @scriptlinguist is one of the scriptblogs that aren’t on our discord server, so we’re not sure what’s going on with them.
