Ah, looking at what everyone is saying, I think it should be the subplot tag in the end instead of the genre. While I do think the romance aspect is important to the story and interwoven with the rest, the main focus is probably more on searching for clues along the way. So it likely reads more...

I'm on Wattpad and have to say that paragraph comments are indeed nice and that both from a reader and an author perspective. It gives people the option to comment on specific parts to give their opinion. That can also be good if somebody doesn't understand something (I got some questions this...

Yeah, I think my actual problem is that I am having trouble making clear to myself what the focus is. There is a goal other than the romance but it's tied together with the romance part. Like, imagine a fairytale where the knight goes to save the princess from the claws of a dragon. Is the...

Hm, good question. It's a bit difficult because I like lots of romance in my novels but usually read more for the plot :sweat_smile: I guess that does speak for this maybe being more of a subplot after all ... But yes, maybe it's not that important of a distinction anyway just as you said...

I've been pondering this question over the last few days and wanted to ask for some opinions: Where do you draw the line between adding romance as a genre and using the romance subplot tag? I usually write romance novels where the relationship has a significant part in the plot so I never had...

Had a new idea today. Probably going to write it soon-ish while I ignore the work I should actually do ~ :blob_melt:

Spent time writing chapters for a story I'm not even posting yet and made a cover for it. Yeah, I see why I'm behind my editing schedule all the time ... It was fun though :sweat_smile:

So, personally, as a reader, I would hate it if names changed halfway through the story. That said, as an author, I'd consider the stats: How far into the story are you with those 12 chapters? If it's intended to be a long story and you really want to change them, I'd do it. If you're already...

Finished my wordcount for the month just in time with a couple of minutes to go ~ :blob_aww: Still behind on edits but whatever. I didn't even think I could do this so this is awesome! :blob_melt:

Haha, yeah, just make sure to look for the completed tag first! I'm currently on a bit of an update hiatus (still writing though!) thanks to my mental health so anything ongoing isn't updated regularly and only has chapters going up every now and then to make up for what we missed.

Okay, I guess it's time to officially panic now. 41k words to go until the end of the month with no focus or motivation to speak of. Thank you very much, depression, that was really what I needed to feel better :blob_unamused:

I see this pop up all the time so I'd like to point out that different strategies exist and revision is a thing for a reason. I wouldn't recommend anyone to write 30k a day because that's just asking for health issues both physically and mentally but if you write a lot, you can churn out a draft...

The problem with making up for a backlog is that each day, two or three new chapters need to be written and edited as well. The risk of the backlog getting bigger is so huge :blob_teary: Or in other words: My backlog is still 12 chapters long, they just happen to all be of the same project now...

Good luck, you can do it! Also, even if you don't manage this time around, you can always try again. Just don't give up! :blob_melt:

I have a story with a similar situation just that it happens halfway down the line. I didn't add the tag because I felt that if it doesn't actually happen, it's not justified. Personally, I have a list with more specific content warnings on my website that readers can check out. In your case, if...
