Why not? (Was kind of thinking of the movie But I'm a Cheerleader!)

Typically, people mauled by werewolves heal within 24 hours. "It must be the drugs," I thought. "I'm hallucinating, that's what it is." The hospital room was as stark and ugly as always. God, I hated hospitals. That stupid stuffed Huskie - yeah, it said it was a wolf but, that was the drugs...

To avoid this, write in first person... Well, even in True Blue, though, I have jumped between father and child - and had one planned arc told by a guest character, so this is not a perfect option... And the Jack Diamond books had one planned installment where he's in a coma for most of the...

It varies wildly. On my more productive days, I generally pull a thousand words an hour, give or take, but some weeks I barely hit 2000 for the week. Went with 3 to split the difference and see the results.

Ah - I think Red Dragon was the one I couldn't remember.

Not any one type, but just a lot of them. They all add in to make the experience progressively less enjoyable.

There was a made-for-TV movie called, IIRC, The Wave that we read as a play in ninth grade English class (I think - may be off by a year or two) that had a pretty disturbing experiment involving, essentially, creating a cult based around a symbol (the eponymous wave) rather than a religion. And...

I think you also have to give a one-star rating on Representing Caution's story...

Know I read one a few years ago but the only one I can think of offhand is the stage play "Dial M For Murder." The blind woman protagonist in that seemed fairly well handled. At least from what an almost 40 year old memory of it tells me. Much more realistic than the other blind protagonists...

Unless they decide he's already been punished enough, the gods would intervene in the "jump into a volcano" thing and pull him out - his charred skeleton would then begin the years long process of mending itself, painfully. In a multiverse where magic exists, entropy may not be an absolute.

Apparently, I made it there once. Had already fallen to the second page by the time I found out, and was off the list never, to my knowledge, to return 24 hours later... No clue how it happened, nor why I was never able to repeat.

MAXIMUM or MINIMUM of (or exactly) 1000 words? There is an entire novel genre like this with that "first day" (typically called "The Alpha's Luna" and not "queen") taking dozens of chapters...

Unless you understand enough of the basics to make a completely granular prompt with little room for interpretation, AI will do wonky things with positioning, direction, reflections (it has a real hard time with stairs and mirrors). This is not obsolete at all = possibly even more important...

Words that make sense, don't have too many glaring grammar issues to drag me out of the story, a plot, and narrative consistency - if the narrator's "voice" changes, there should be a reason for it (beyond "eh, it was too short so I padded it with AI").

If you just want people to know about it, then there's the "Latest Chapter Discussion | Scribble Hub Forum" area. If you are looking for feedback, there's the "Story Feedback | Scribble Hub Forum" area. Or you can make an announcement in General, but half the time you'll be directed to one or...

Sounds kind of like a more serious take on Project A-Ko - where the MC is really just a bit of a McGuffin (Seiko, often called C-Ko) that both Eiko (A-Ko) and B-Ko (who's father is a corporate raider and Elvis impersonator...) want to win the affection of (since they're school girls this is...

Heh. It was supposed to be a parody of "My 409" by The Beach Boys, but the song gets so bland and repetitive I just kind of conked out a verse and a half in.

All these people raise swamp birds?

Lost contact with the people I knew who could help you. Don't remember if the one taught in Nagano or if the other one married a woman from there (been THAT long since I lost contact) but one taught ESL in Japan for four years and the other married a woman who teaches in the US and spends her...
