I don't think SH earned the nickname SmutHub for no reason, and I think the WN format/audience in general is probably incompatible with anything that would qualify as contemporary fiction. Normal novels have ends, and are often not much more than fifty thousand words long, WN are expected to...

Maybe paste it first into something like notepad (or text edit on a mac) then do a find and replace on the extra spaces (you can copy and paste the CRs into it). That's assuming you're doing this on a PC/laptop. If you're one of those phone writers, look for a rich text editor online and use...

vote for grug, grug smash puny problem.

¿Alas?, I write my stories to completion before publishing, so I don't so much have retcons as edits. That said, I did once completely change the character of my lead, necessitating an entire redraft to make sure he was consistent (also, it improved the writing a ton, imo, but w/e).

Ah, the old Vlad the Impaler technique.

lmfao, I'm so sorry! Even wolfram-alpha didn't want nothing to do with it.

What is the anti-derivative of the function f(x) = (2x^3+13x+11x^(-2π))/(6ix^(-iπ)+e^(ix^¡√(2x)))?

How is the sky blue?

I tend to write my stories with a certain level of inevitability baked into the grand plot, often even including the part where the protagonist/POV character is involved, though for one of them, if my character had just let a certain thing go he, well, he wouldn't have been involved in the...

#notalawyer but I'm confident you can *reference* copyright material freely in other works, on the same grounds which allow you to critique them. That wouldn't actually stop the mouse from attempting to sue, but for such a blatant abuse of copyright you could probably counter sue them for legal...

Wow, that's good art! You even got the clothes' wrinkles!

:blob_teary: wish that could be me. I've pants'd a couple stories before, but I want to have, like, actual intentional interwoven "character arcs" or whatever, so now I have to do work and I don't like it.

I'm in eternal outlining hell, so although I wrote more than 1500 words (of story related material) it doesn't feel very relaxing at all. I miss editing.

I have a terrible addiction to answered the question as "yes" (and not in the hermaphrodite sense (except the one time, technically)), but in general I'd say to let the story dictate that, or else just do what you like.

Been keeping this one in my back pocket. And an extra in my front. https://forum.scribblehub.com/threads/get-your-story-read-how-to-write-a-good-blurb-lessons-with-dr-shoemilk-will-help-you-with-blurb.23397/ And a few in my backpack, just in case.

The probably correct but certainly difficult option is to have a select few members of that community steal the show for a few scenes, i.e. be very memorable and fun. Make them characters the readers can sympathize with the lead missing because they miss them too.

Fav: Heretofore Most hated: Just Underused: Heretofore Overused: Just Just is the bane of my existence. You might say I've just about had it up to here with it. I just can't take any more of it. If I could just never use it again, that would be just great. Please, just put me out of my...

I don't think "flawed" and "unlikeable" exist on the same spectrum. A good example is Xykon from Order of the Stick, who is total scum, but very likeable. Even Nale (another villain) has his charms. There was also the severely unlikeable paladin, who you nevertheless loved to hate. The...

Very surprised Scene 1 isn't winning. It demonstrates much better technical skill (as a writer, I mean, not talking about the character). Even though it's a bit longer, it uses its extra "space" to escape the dry, "functional" writing of scene 2.

Not exactly a rewrite, because I think the story is more or less fine as it is (even if there was room to grow), but I would "rewrite" Chrono Cross to make it less buggy, to actually get some use out of its massive roster, and to incorporate NG+ into the story proper to add a "synthesis" ending...
