Great advice! Really appreciate it. And you’re right, I shouldn’t constantly re-write my work. But the thing is, I have tried to drop it and write something else, only to have nothing in mind. The reason why I’m writing this is to learn how to finish a story. I don’t plan on re-writing every...

Hi. I’ll start off explaining that I did what most authors do: we come up with an idea and roll with it without giving it too much thought. And what happens when you do that? You realize your plot is shit halfway through and have to either drop it or re-write everything. That’s where I come in...

Maybe just copy that series and then delete the original? You’ll still keep the old one

I write like 1000 words per half an hour, so in an hour it's like 2000+. But structured and polished as in edited? An hour and a half maybe?

just lurking to see if I pop up :blobspearpeek:

If you think they drink period blood, that's absolutely disgusting. Period blood is basically dirty blood, it's like other excrement that leaves the body. You aren't supposed to consume it. However, I can see poor vampires be desperate enough to do it? Like really really hungry ones? Still gross...

Sure, commas are great and an authors friend. But it's also easy to use them too often. So if you do understand how to use commas well, introduce the next best thing: - Use the dash and add a bit of dash to your story. If the comma becomes to much. And have fun!

I mean I’ve seen many cases of that too. Some are so heavily ‘inspired’ that their novel feels like a fanfiction with OC characters. I mean, it’s up to you on whether or not you’re stealing those concepts. You’re allowed to borrow them, like tags or tropes but if you basically copy paste someone...

I won’t lie, I have more chapters that I dislike than like. But the ones that I do like are so unlike anything I’d write. Maybe that’s why I like them? They surprise me no matter how many times I read them.

Honestly, when you hit writers block in the middle of a chapter, delete the chapter, take a break to do something and then sit down and write something completely different. Sometimes it's hard to continuously write good chapter so take care of yourself!

Tapas, a few sites exclusive for just one genre like Chrysanthemum garden that only allows BL there... I think.

I know like three languages and I’d rate it a solid 3 because I’m horrible with coming up with good names :blob_catflip:

Maybe not professional but I would like to advance it to a little more than a hobby? Not become professional but have cute little readers that leave “please don’t drop this” or “this made my day”. Highlight of my day honestly. That‘s what motivates me to improve

I mean it’s a little annoying, but I can live

I... Both situations are equally as dodgy, there isn't a single logical decision with the ones you provided. I mean if you're pretending to be an underage kid on the internet... You too have issues :blob_catflip:

I've branded by making myself known with dumb answers and dumb threads :blobthumbsup:

I’m coughing up blood, happy single day :blob_catflip:

I don't kill my characters but I do make sure to have my main character nearly die every now and then because I’m a sadist

I guess the only good thing is more advertisement for your novel. But that's not good enough...
