Lol, yeah. I still get: "Your story is so good. I enjoyed reading it. Maybe I can help you with it: [insert suspect link]

1. Waifu covers are standard. Regardless if the character on the cover even gets a few lines of dialog. The whole point was to get you to click. 2. "damsel in distress, or cheering/crying from the sidelines" = Author poorly copying cliche shonen tropes, and probably being rewarded for it in...

This reminds me of marketing 101: 1.When you talk about yourself it's advertising 2. When someone else talks about you it's PR. Authors, such as myself, will use multiple POVs, 1. To give a broader perspective to the reader and 2. TO GLAZE the MC/protagonist. After all the protagonist can't...

Just be normal. When the inevitable "Time" issue arises make a "pet" analogy. dog and cats are honestly 13 years (anything more they are so old they become carpets) but we love them unconditionally anyway. same with plants. Love has no condition. and "falling in love" has always been an...

FUNNY YOU SHOULD ASK!!!! I dropped The Kriegers of Mount Castle High in June 2022. A week ago, DESPERATE for a creative spark, I re-read it, then started editing. Now I've written the first two scenes for chapter 26. WHY? Because 3 years later I come back to it and said, "Damn, this story is...

This one is hilarious :ROFLMAO: but don't forget, these are a bunch of amateur Authors writing romance. they watch K-dramas and awkwardly use things they saw there in their stories and stuff. Not justifying it, but yeah, they could be more original. Their eyes met in the cafe at noon, so they...

Wut m8, I'm so bad I even know which celebrity actors should play my characters whenever the movie of one of my novels gets made. ?

Discombobulate Cornucopia

PREACH BRUV!! So many edge-lords post up here, it can be much. But we all write what we write to keep the story going

you actually mean "word count" not necessarily chapters, but, with that said. Most of the better Authors will write between 1.5k to 3.5k per chapter consistently (avg 2K) so. based on that you are looking at: 25 chapters 50,0000 words. Hopefully the Author hasn't dropped it. Which would make...

Dude, you're a bot. Pound sand.

Kitty, go help beginning writers. Go teach them how to edit too much dialog. not info dump. show don't tell. When you help other writers your passion comes back. Remember: "Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach." teach until it comes back. that's what I do.

I liked it immediately. Sorry I don't have more feedback. ❤️

I'll give you a discussion Paul :blob_reach: If the isolation of the character is a truly major event, and has everything to do with the story, then the author will talk about it enough so that reader grasps that the MC is "going through things" basically every day because of the trauma. The...

Then he cursed his wife who was sleeping in the front seat" Then he cursed his wife who slept in the front seat" :blob_okay: better~ Notice: when you write "was" instead of an action verb, you separate the subject from the action: The Boy was Hitting the ball - (Weak, passive see how WAS...

You're not wrong. How you're using was is not grammatically incorrect. Technically speaking. However, was is a "passive verb" meaning it causes the action to seem weak, unimportant. Not impactful. it separates the Person doing the action from the action. Also: " It was meant to express a...

January- Late Evening Tom Tailor drove his company car on a winding highway in Bulgaria. The darkening, sky filling with heavy snowfall, made it hard to see the road. Getting worried, Tom wondered if he’d reach the construction site before closing. “This is some blizzard,” he muttered while...

i don't think westerners take Valentines as seriously as anime would portray them. That's a "greeting card" holiday meant to sell stuff. But young folk are into it. so win win. But for most of us, on the far west hemisphere. Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years would be the holidays that show in...

Good Omens by Neil Gaimen. More about friendship (between angel and demon). not tragic. Adventure/comedy. I read it a thousand years ago and loved it.
