I know that feel! I refresh pretty often tho lmao

mine is pretty bad but its kinda chill like you want. It's called tales of the wanderer. It has problems and theres some magical stuff just being introduced but idk. My character is just a guy pretty much lmao. edit: my MC isnt a chosen one, he's just a merc that ends up in pretty intense situations

Okay so the last thing i wanna do is get in trouble. So I've written a sex scene, it's not very graphic. It's more written in a way of feeling rather than doing (if you get what i mean) This question probably doesn't belong here but im kinda new. So I'm wondering, does all sexual content need a...

Yeah you're absolutely right. Gotta keep that immersion, it's integral to not only your synopsis but your ability to tell the story too! I hope everything works out for you. I'll check your story out hueyhare! (edit) how do you link your story below like you do?

Show don't tell is good and it's also okay to tell a little bit. Just don't want huge blocks of text with exposition. It's, to a degree, acceptable (at least in my opinion) to do a little more telling in short stories.

Beautifully said, I really appreciate your advice! I also wrote some horrendous stories in 7th grade hahaha ;-;

Oh i know that feel for sure! I deleted a whole Book I was working on because it felt so... Clumsy? Plus I ended up working on something I'm a lot more happy with, but I'll always keep those ideas in mind.

The way you describe your change in style really speaks to me. I've felt and done similar things. Maybe It's my lack of confidence that convinces me that I'm not getting any better, but from what you've said. Maybe I have c: Semi-colons aren't something I've gotten to learning properly yet. I'm...

I really appreciate your reply. It was genuinely nice and comforting to read to be honest. I do read a lot of professionally published books, though they're mostly within two of my favorite genres (Sci-Fi and Fantasy). I get a lot of criticism for liking Andrezj Sapkowski's Witcher books and I...

I currently use Grammarly at the moment and I think the idea of writing how you talk is a good one that I'll take on board for sure. Sometimes Grammarly doesn't pick up on things too. ;-; Intense and precise grammar Isn't really my strong suit. Although I do feel what I write isn't a s**t storm...

Oh, the feeling always lingers! I'm beginning to wonder if it's something you don't notice but the readers do! A reason why I value feedback so much.

It depends on the depth of your characters and their personal struggles. I think maybe investing in a character's back story can jump-start you. Alternatively its always cool to do short stories involving one main character and a bunch of different ones in each story. It creates room for new...

Did it come naturally over time or from reading? I want to get better but don't really know some good steps to take. I haven't had much feedback either in regards to story, just grammar. (I suck at that)

i just write short stories, especially within a singular world. It's a good way (at least for me) to build a world.
