    How do you call the taxi driver if you don't know his name?

    Unfortunately not really applicable in the US. I'm assuming this is in your language and country. I've seen some multicultural media that says to call them 'driver' or 'mister' or some other respectful title. In the US, though, you just get in the taxi. Calling the driver anything from 'bud'...

    Feedback and/or discussion would be wonderful.

    No worries. Dialogue in the middle is 'proper' but it should be rarely done. And text before and after should only be a sentence or two. For example: Nick met Juavae on the street. Waving to each other, Nick asked, "How was your day?" "How was your day?" Nick asked Juavae as they passed each...

    Craving feedback vs. Staying motivated

    Yeah, that's a good one. I constantly do that. So it's good advice.

    Feedback and/or discussion would be wonderful.

    So I've said a few of these in the other post, but I'll go into more detail here. First, your upload schedule. There's no pattern to it. Webnovels are not like fanfiction. You'll lose more readers than you gain with an inconsistent upload schedule. Second, and this is even more important than...

    Craving feedback vs. Staying motivated

    Yeah, there's a section for it, but you can just ask for feedback and post the URL to your story. There'll be people who will give you honest feedback.

    Craving feedback vs. Staying motivated

    That's actually bad advice. The readers opinions do matter if you're doing it as more than a hobby. I have a saying. "Write for yourself, then write for your readers." See that. Despite saying write for yourself, the readers are still a factor. That's because they're who your writing for. But...

    Craving feedback vs. Staying motivated

    First of all. If you aren't writing for more than a passing interest or hobby, then inconsistent scheduling is fine. If you want to make a career out of it, your readers want consistency, proper editing, and a good story layout. All of which the pinned forum posts for beginner writers can...

    Okay, there's going to be a number of "early readers" here.

    Mine aren't nearly as supernatural. Apparently, I might have a newly recently coined symptom of autism called Hyperlexia, or an above-average reading ability, despite all of the early brain damage I most likely suffered. My dad worked IT, so we had computers in the house. And being 2000...

    Raw Sketch until getting better

    feels like this guy is covered in grease with that lighting, but I can't complain. I'm too impatient to shade properly. This is definitely good enough to already market. I've seen people commission worse. you'd be surprised at how many greats use mouse and keyboard. I personally don't know how...

    As a reader, what is your attention span tolerance for the minimum and maximum number of sentences in a paragraph?

    well, if there's anyone to share the fact that I wrote an entire 8 part story, in class, in the second grade, and had our teacher read it out loud. well, thankfully I'm out of shamosterone.

    First comment!

    Don't forget that their portfolio links lead to somebody else's art account. out of curiosity, I followed one one day and the poor guy's comment section was filled with him trying to explain that he doesn't take commissions or webtoons to several people on each of his posts, and he dissalowed...

    As a reader, what is your attention span tolerance for the minimum and maximum number of sentences in a paragraph?

    Yeah, I actually started before that, learning to read from pre-2000s videogame instructions, then kindergarten introduced me to novels. By second grade, I started making my own. Yeah, it's why I got into webnovels. Normal Novels just don't last too long. That and modern books are all over the...

    Writing Prompt How would your MC react when put in a horror movie?

    Well, considering it's a cultivation novel. Anyone physical is going to have a bad time. I think even at his current point, maybe IT could kill him, but otherwise, all of them are just similar dudes. Freddy Kruger is an interesting one, considering he chases you in your dreams, and I'm not too...

    As a reader, what is your attention span tolerance for the minimum and maximum number of sentences in a paragraph?

    I know... The lost texts are lost for a reason, I guess... Now people hear about a bookstore and think of old people sitting with a cup of tea, reading the dictionary... Yeah, I meant it as I read extremely fast due to starting at a young age. I'll finish proper novels in less than a day if...

    Finally completed 10 chapters.

    Great, now you just need the crippling self-doubt that everyone who ever liked your writing secretly hates it, The self loathing that you ever wrote something so terrible now that you know better, and the over active imagination that demands you work on your new idea, but you can't, because time...
