Okay, there are a multitude of problems. The premise is just fine, but it will be challenging for someone just starting out in writing English. You have the passion and enough knowledge of tools to bring it to life. And you at least have a basic grasp of English, which is more than some of the...

I thought that at first too. But the books are by other authors, so she's promoting lesser-known authors and their books, I think.

I'll have to add them to my reading list! How do you do the link thingy?

I like the first part of the definition. The second part, not so much. So I guess I'm in the maybe so category.

It's good. Your hook is nice, but your transitions could do better. Things like: feel a little clunky and strange to me, almost like you're blending a narrative and an essay. Other than that, a 100/100 from me! Edit: According to ChatGPT, you're mixing formal and informal tones (the former for...

I think that silence hits deeper, as if it strips away all the noise and reveals nothing but the bare bones of emotion. So it sticks with you longer. Noise, to me, is flashier and overwhelms you with pure emotion. So it's a delicate balance - too much silence generates noise, too much noise...

Your story and premise are interesting, and the prose is nice. However, you came here for advice, so here are some of my thoughts. First of all, the title. It sounds cool and is high-flown. But. It's not engaging and is far too generic to draw me in. Secondly, I have multiple problems with your...

Your story itself is excellent, but your synopsis could do with breaking up. Something like this: Is good enough for me - it's easier on the eyes and more engaging. However, you can improve it even further! Other than that, well, I'm going to read it after the other books I'm currently reading.

Today I learned that the French call wands baguettes. So, if I was French and was asked about Harry Potter, I would say that Voldemort was on the quest to find the Elder Baguette, the strongest baguette in existence, but didn't know that it was the brother of Harry's baguette, and that was a...

I will! Thanks again!

Ah, got it. Thanks! Oh, okay. I just have a tendency to reply to people who ask me questions. Sorry! Thank you again! So far I've read your first chapter - and I'm hooked! It's a great book, and I appreciate you introducing me to your work!

I think generally, just read more actual English books. From the looks of your writing, it seems like you don't have a lot of experience writing, or with the English language at all. So first, read some books. When you can understand say, two sentences of Jane Austen or Ron Chernow, and have...

What you said was constructive in that it taught me about new perspectives on the world, and new realms of Romance and GL to watch out for. Yes, you have a right to express your experience. But, so do I. And I did - I expressed my sympathies, I told you of my experience, I laid it all out there...

TYSM for showing me this book! I'll have to read it now - the premise is amazing! Sorry for being somewhat rude, but not 100%? And yes, pretty much 100% of what I have describes comes from my personal experience with GL. So I guess it's just contrasting perspectives here - pretty much always...

Some of the first books I ever read on this site were actually GL stories... While I do think your experience with GL is hellish, I do think that there are some actually good GL out there. For example, @Yairy is a really good author, her books got into trending several times, and each and every...

It's a manga, but "My Quiet Blacksmith Life In Another World" should probably fit your criteria. It's about a person, he gets reincarnated as a blacksmith, his workers are pretty girls (I don't think there's any romance in there though), and the combat scenes are pretty much minimal. At least...
