    Question on announcing a completed story.

    I think I understood a quarter of that. :blob_drool:

    Question on announcing a completed story.

    Where are you getting those expectations from?

    Managing Multiple WIPs

    Yeah, don't publish them all at once. Better to focus on one until completion, and the others can sit and wait their turn. This way, if you get anymore bright ideas, you could keep throwing them into those WIPs. And while they are on the sidelines, you do not have to be nearly as concerned about...

    What's your editing process? What do you focus on?

    Good attitude for asking if an author even wants to hear that first. :blobthumbsup:

    What's your editing process? What do you focus on?

    Yeah, save them like they are sticky notes.

    What's your editing process? What do you focus on?

    What do I do? I write fast and a little feral. Not too sloppy, and not careless, just... hungry. Always hungry. I'll be chasing momentum rather than that fine polish; if it's shit, I ain't going to be buffering it. So I let scenes exist ugly only if they're still breathing, because you know why...

    Do you put your own stories in your own reading lists?

    No. I am not a fan of, well, fanning myself. :blob_neutral:

    Writing What system of units do you use in your fiction?

    What system of units do you use in your fiction? Answer: Depends on the setting. Like, if I am writing a fanfiction, I'm going to utilize whatever existed before I touched it. Do you stick to the international system of units (e.g., meters = for length, kg = for mass, etc)? Answer: If I...

    What are some things you wish you knew when you started writing?

    @Tarrow See how there are others here pointing out to not permit others dictate how to write? That's not a suggestion or a rule; that's a guide. Write for the reasons that you've been writing for all along.

    What are some things you wish you knew when you started writing?

    My regret? I did worse than listen to their suggestions, I let my editors change my story. Back then, they wrote so much more than I had at the time, with high quality writing, and each character had an interesting premise that moved their own stories in directions I was eager to read. But my...

    Writing Need tips

    I'm going to use your own teaser as an example, but with my own voice editing it. I'll apologize for doing so because I know this is not what you requested, but I thought it'd be best if you saw for yourself how "First POV" would change some of your own writing. Here: It was supposed to be a...

    Who's that Samurai? (Anime Edition)

    Yeah, I don't think I've seen this one. Somebody else is gonna have to guess. :sweat_smile:

    Who's that Samurai? (Anime Edition)

    Alright, I guess then we can rule out Ikki Kurogane. It'll take me a little bit to figure this one out.

    Conflicting morals

    @AnonUnlimited You bring up a good point because I would be far more interested in the why. Those two characters have various alternative backstories that go into depth on explaining how those morals developed into what they currently are. If a story can give me breadcrumbs to follow where the...

    Does this samurai only remain strong for one minute?

    Don't confuse feedback for criticism; I'm not someone who willingly discourages others away from writing with the voice they are most comfortable speaking with. :blob_okay:

    Wow... this'll take a while before I can give you feedback. Any specific novel out of the three you want me to start on? :blob_dizzy:

    What kind of music do you usually listen to when you’re writing something?

    It really depends on the story I am writing, but to be specific, I'll choose a soundtrack from a film or series I watched that had context matching the scenes I'm writing. That way, I can have nostalgia guide my writing. But there was one novel I wrote that wasn't an OST from anywhere. And this...
