All I can say is that by solving your problem, I wrote 10 extra chapters instead of just one. But in this process, there were not only boring characters, but also investigations, fires, attacks, and so on. On the other hand, you can describe the hero's experiences with flashbacks or his actions...

I try to find a generalizing word that is not in the text, or I choose a metaphor for what is happening in the chapter.

I don't want to be picky. But either the guy doesn't have enough ears. Or the girl is taking the blame for both of them.

Technically, there is no hyphen on the keyboard, so I use a minus sign. But for lovers of variety, I can recommend: Short dash (-) - the key next to the number 0. Medium dash (–) - Alt + 0150 (on the numeric keyboard). Long dash (—) - Alt + 0151 (on the numeric keyboard).

You could make one story more interesting and complex instead of writing several.

It depends on what function your synopsis should perform. It can introduce the world so that the first chapters don't seem too complicated to the reader. Or it can simply introduce the character. I write a spoiler for the first chapters, clarifying the main details. Intrigue them, and let them...

I try to evaluate any situation from two sides. And the moment where the text can be perceived ambiguously - the middle. Since there are people who are ready to perceive even a verified text in their own way. But I find such places myself when I reread after a long time. It's actually...

I'll never tire of reminding you that people sleep. They have dreams. You've had a lot of dreams in your lifetime. You don't remember them. When they surface, they can evoke various sensations. One of them is déjà vu.

Give him a magic wand. But that's boring. It's better to come up with a gluon mixture that allows someone who knows physics well enough to transform matter.

This is one of the concepts that comes up when discussing religion with its ministers. But it has a wider scope. The concept is simple: you are either a prisoner of your reality or its creator. More down to earth, it can be described as believing in a better world for you and existing in it. In...

I prefer a combined approach, reading a riddle and its answer and writing in the same way. This gives the active reader the opportunity to think, and the lazy reader doesn't fall out of the narrative and understands what is really happening. Otherwise, there is a high chance of misrepresenting...

An immortal hermit who created his own universe, about whom no one knows - that's perfect for me.

This should be a well-known dilemma. There are two approaches to writing a story, as an "architect" and as a "gardener." Most often, these approaches are combined. You either try to start with planning or simply write. However, as a result of rewriting, your scenes may be spontaneous or created...

Cannibals are usually wild. And aliens can disguise themselves. There's a movie where alien girls crash on Earth. But they were terribly ugly and smelled terrible. At the same time, they had an effect on people's minds and looked like models. Over time, their influence on others weakened, and...

As the academician would say, smell cannot be a verb. There can be any kind of flesh. But the smell can be rotten, "floral", etc.

They ate her. These girls were actually aliens.

Considering some of the ideas of Buddhism, this is exactly what happens. To paraphrase: there is one being who is reborn in all of us. "Don't cry, Hitler is still ahead."

I used to think that it would be interesting to put the reader in the hero's shoes. But in the end, they will run away from your story just like your hero did. All of this can be done with just one scene. If there is a battle to be fought, the hero should sit by the pond and examine their fresh...

Oh, hi. I'm also a be-be-be-beginner writer. I've just started so many times that I'm already st-st-stuttering. Let's say you have a very strange prologue in your book. It's probably normal. But there are events detached from Xvalkken. It's supposed to introduce us to the world, but it doesn't...

Well, they all ate the poor guy.
