Hmmm. If I'm stuck, I have a few things I like to go back to think about. Firstly, I like to think about the genre I'm writing. Different genres are entertaining for different reasons, so what's the entertainment value for your chosen genre? I like reading and writing comedies, so my...

It depends if you're talking about someone hiding their identity or not knowing their identity. It also depends if said someone is the MC or not. I generally haven't been impressed in stories where the MC doesn't know his identity, because you get the impression at the start of the story that...

Where are you getting these numbers?

As someone who only wants to read and write lighthearted comedies, this thread appears messed up. :blob_blank:

This is good. So the examples would become: The four other heroes shout in unison, "Right!" The four other heroes shout in unison, "Right!" Then they vanish in pursuit of the Yellow Rat Clan. The downside is, in the case of including the action, it feels even more clunky. The one without the...

So I wanted to write a line where multiple people say the same thing at once. A quick google search suggests I should use a dialogue tag to convey this information. To give the example in my own work, it would read something like this: But I remember reading (in probably a translation on NU or...

Did anyone here ever play a game called Everybody Edits?

I was thinking about this when I read the argument earlier. But then I thought to myself: "yeah, but do you actually feel love?" Like, you can feel excitement, or fear, or sorrow, but can you feel love? Or do you feel other emotions and then attribute them to love from context? In other words...

I would use my superpowers to point out that good and evil are boolean in nature so pushing them as two parts of a trilemma is nonsensical.

I'm not a massive fan of seafood. -1 star. You need to swim to navigate the ocean, or use a vehicle. -1 star. The ocean washes up seaweed on beaches and it often smells terrible. -1 star. The ocean is outside. - 1 star. Overall I guess I'd rate it 1 star.

It's crazy how much mistaking the gender of the protagonist affects reading a synopsis. I've had at least three occasions where I've read a synopsis thinking "oh, this feels like a funny, unique and interesting story concept" only to start the first chapter, realise the protagonist is female...

I think the end is probably the very first thing I actually planned out in my current story. Not that it's fully planned out, but I have the major events thought out. I would want the beginning, end, and a "generic middle" of a story to be planned out before I start to write. Though if I were...

As nice as it sounds to say that the journey itself is the important part, I have to disagree. Those who do think this way are just thinking too literally about the concept of the 'destination'. The reason that the journey often feels important is because of some form of growth or experience...

To be honest, my main concern isn't the wildlife but the other people. I'm not sure what "best" means here, but I'd assume it means fitness/survival skill rather than morals. With that said, I feel like a small group containing myself and four other people who know they only have to work...

Consider the infinite sequence created by taking the positive integers and raising them to the power of negative one. Despite the fact that this sequence tends towards zero, the summation of all these term is non-finite.
