    Another Noob Post...

    Here's some advice from someone with a decently sized reader base of 300. The way you can get to those high numbers(around 500-1000 people reading daily) then what you're going to need to do is release a chapter every day. I released a chapter everyday for my first fifteen or so chapters which...

    Trivia Fact #8: If a mother hedgehog thinks the nest where she birthed her hoglets is in danger, then she'll proceed to eat her children then relocate. Don't ask me why they do that. They just do. This is why you shouldn't touch a newborn hoglet until it becomes older or else the mother might...

    What is "evil" to you?

    My hard definition of evil is when someone's doing something they know is wrong, they have no real reason for doing it but they continue anyway, and then when people call them out for it or try to make them stop they don't give two shits. In real life, there are a lot of people out there that...

    Characters with personalities

    I mean, this is kind of a strange question since everyone has a personality so it should be easy to identify what a personality is, but if you want an actual answer, a character with a personality is basically when the author writes a character with specific traits identifiable only to them...

    I'm afraid to ask, but you mean the mother bear, right?

    Writing Telling too much information.

    The whole mystery box thing is something I struggled with for a while as well. Its only somewhat recently, like a year or two ago, after I talked with other authors and rethought my story and wrote some more that I realized how to really do them. At least somewhat well. The best way I'd say to...

    Writing Telling too much information.

    TLDR: Hide your big twists and information for later. Don't throw all your cards on the table for all to see on the very first chapter. Now that we have the TLDR out of the way, lets get to business. I've seen this so often with new time authors and I am guilty of this as well from when I...

    Trivia fact #6: Joey kangaroos are very underdeveloped at birth which is why they reside in their mother's pouches after birth and months prior. Just look up a newborn Joey and you'll see what I mean. They look like those images on an ultrasound.

    Would you read further?

    No problem. I go by the idea that people need actual criticism if they actually want to get better at their craft. You don't see people mastering their class with yes men surrounding them all the time, cause then they'd never learn the right and wrong to the process. I hope to see your writing...

    Would you read further?

    From the first chapter alone, I wouldn't personally read further, and its not because of the grammar either, though that was a key factor. Personally, grammar means nothing until it actively gets in the way of my reading experience, which it kind of does here. I would recommend using something...

    Trivia fact #5: Giraffe calves fall on their head when born because the mother births them while standing. They're also 6-feet tall when newborn so a full grown person will be looking a calf straight in the eye. Imagine carrying that around for 15 months(the average giraffe pregnancy can last).

    I admire the drive to do all that, but why?

    Trivia fact #4: Bear cubs are extremely playful and will actively seek out other animals it can play with. Including humans which does not bode well with a mother bear's protective instincts.

    RWBY

    S1: Pretty good. Obviously rough around the edges but has potential S2: Really good. The show did what S1 did but upgraded practically everything S3: Pretty good. Although it should have been postponed by a few seasons, it's still got a lot of flare and dramatic weight S4: WTF: They seriously...

    Trivia fact #2: When a horse gives birth to a newborn foal, the foal will have featherlike things around their hooves called eponychium which protects the mother from getting cut from the foal's hooves in the birthing process.

    I can do that also. Trivia fact number 1: Cheetah cub's fur pattern makes them look like Honey Badgers to deter predators. Most animals don't want to face a Honey Badger cause they're fucking mental, and since cheetah's are very vulnerable as a baby, that pattern is the only thing keeping them...
