    I'll read your first chapter and tell you my opinion on it

    Thank you very much for taking the time to read and for your thoughtful feedback. Your comments helped me notice areas that would benefit from additional clarification, and I’ll be sure to keep them in mind as I continue revising the story.

    Is the Ultraviolence... Violent?

    While reading, there were several points that didn’t feel realistic to me, and I found myself unable to clearly visualize the fight scene in my head. I’d like to point out those moments below. “Teruya tried to punch again, but Jackie dodged it, letting him hit the hard concrete wall. The...

    I'll read your first chapter and tell you my opinion on it

    Hi Jaymi, thanks for doing this — it’s a really kind idea. I’d love it if you gave my story a look. The title is HELL’S RETURNERS. A big motivation for me was wanting to bridge a gap in understanding — especially for readers who might not have personal experience with this kind of trauma. I...

    I got a new story

    Honestly, this is something you’ll only truly understand once you try writing it. You can plan as much as you want, but until you actually draft the first chapter, you won’t know what feels right for Ben or where the story naturally wants to go. My advice would be: Make a simple outline (just...

    I got a new story

    Hey, I’m really glad my feedback helped — and congrats on writing all of this in such a short time. Five hours for a first draft is honestly impressive. To answer your questions honestly: Do I think this story can get noticed? Yes, it has a chance — especially if you keep improving the opening...

    Critique me.

    Hi! I read your prologue on the Scribble Hub and wanted to share a few thoughts. First, I personally really enjoy dark fantasy, so I’m genuinely interested in where this is going. The tone is grim and unsettling in a good way, and the chapel/ritual imagery is strong. A few suggestions that...

    I got a new story

    This is a very solid start. The pacing is good, the imagery is clear, and the voice feels natural. You have a strong sense of scene and tension, which is not easy for a beginner. With some polishing, this could really shine. I have a few suggestions that might help strengthen the opening even...

    Please leave a review of my novel.

    I really enjoyed the atmosphere and core concept of this chapter. The idea of a “survival-based power” and the cockroach analogy are very strong, and the opening does a great job of establishing Michael’s desperation and emotional weight. The contract scene in particular has a solid sense of...

    If you have time, could you please give me some feedback

    I’ve read up to Chapter 2, and while there are many important elements, the frequent shifts in emotional perspective make it hard for the reader to know whom to emotionally invest in. Simply choosing one emotional anchor per chapter would greatly improve immersion. If Fiona is the protagonist...

    Need feedback only on this chapter 1

    I’ll just leave one final thought. Try not to fall into perfectionism. Keep writing, and more importantly, finish what you start. In my experience, there’s no other reliable way to improve writing skill or story structure.

    Need feedback only on this chapter 1

    I can’t give this a numerical score. The reason is that this chapter functions as a statement of intent rather than something that can be properly evaluated as a story yet. The actual elements needed for fair assessment haven’t appeared. At this point, what we can clearly see is that the...

    I will give feedback on YOUR horror story, or story with heavy horror themes

    I intentionally avoided deep immersion in the middle chapters. I wanted Leo’s life to feel “thin” and frictionless — the kind of happiness that never asks you to stop and think. If the ending made that thinness noticeable in hindsight, then the structure worked as intended. :s_wink:

    I will give feedback on YOUR horror story, or story with heavy horror themes

    This is a complete short story (4 chapters), not a serial. I’m specifically looking for feedback after reading all four chapters, because the meaning of the story fundamentally changes at the end. On the surface, this may look like a typical isekai power fantasy. It is not. This story is meant...

    Looking for feedback on tone & thematic clarity (completed short series)

    Thank you for taking the time to read and write such a detailed response. What you pointed out—especially regarding how Alex’s feelings come across, and how staged or restrained the interactions feel—is very helpful as reader perception. That gap between authorial intent and how it reads is...

    Looking for feedback on tone & thematic clarity (completed short series)

    Hello everyone, I’m looking for some focused feedback on a completed short series I recently published on Scribble Hub. Title: The Forbidden Spell: A War Witch’s Love Length: 12 chapters / ~5.6k words Status: Completed This is not a LitRPG or progression-focused story. I was intentionally...

    Writing [Sharing] How does a character introduction impress readers?

    Scene 1 it is. The question is whether an image forms in the reader’s mind. And that is already decided within the first two lines.

    First-time author seeking feedback on sentimental fantasy (orphan MC)

    The slice-of-life opening in Chapter 1 works really well. You can clearly feel the warmth of the found-family dynamic, and it does a great job grounding the reader in the characters’ everyday lives. That said, there’s a noticeable gap between the introduction so far and what the synopsis...

    Need feedback on this first chapter draft. (Experimental)

    The hijacking functions as a “mystery,” but it is used merely as a device to isekai the protagonist, which could make readers feel deceived → No problem It ended up being longer than intended, about 2,000 words → No problem It may give a misleading impression of the overall story → Impossible to...

    Help me Rate the Tournament Fighting Scene

    I think this fight scene is very realistic and easy to follow. The movements, timing, and rule handling all feel authentic, which is a real strength of the scene. That said, you might want to decide how much detail to include based on how important this match is to the overall story. If this is...
