Even the dialogue? That's fair, but I really tried and revisited the story several times, trying to make it good. But honest is honest, my skills are shit, and I am not meant to be an author. I'll finish the novel to the best of my ability, but I guess I am not meant for it even after a decade of writing. Some people are meant to suck. Apologies for bothering you with this turd, and thank you for your honest opinion. It was good to hear things as they are.
Oh, no!

Don't be down! As I said, its not that you lack skills, you've just present the information all in the wrong order.

You have the makings of a pretty solid author in you, so dont discount yourself so quickly. You just need an editor, that's all. We authors become blind to the shortcomings of our own writing because we do not view it the same as our readers.

Most writers never overcome it. Youre at the point in your career where you are now being made aware of it, and thus you can overcome it!

I wouldn't have taken the time to read, review, and make so many notes if I didn't think you were worth investing in.

Now, no sad! Not allowed! Only progress!

Besides, you've only got ten years. Ive got over 20 and I cant get readers either. So, if you think you're a failure, what does it make me? A turbo failure!?

Don't judge yourself so low. There is an excellent measure of how good you are as a writer. Here is your story: https://www.scribblehub.com/read/1545315-the-wandering-maidens-travel-guide/chapter/1545329/ . I have skimmed your chapters, and you have readers who care, read, and correct the occasional spelling mistakes. That is your proof as an author. Best of luck on your journey. I hope you reach whatever heights you desire, but most of all I hope you find happiness and bring joy to your current and new readers.

Pssh! :blob_unamused:

You're trying to prop me up to put yourself down. Do not do that!

You're a promising writer. Your story is just like a puzzle, except you managed to fit all the pieces together in the wrong spot.

Arrange it properly and it will be a lovely picture.

I can probably assist you with some of the basics and get you on the right track.

Anyway... no more reviews from me. :blob_blank:

I've only got 6 chapters up, and I'm new to this. Would love to learn and grow! My first warning is that I did plan on writing a traditional novel and not a webnovel - but I have never written before, so I joined these sites to get help! (I've been told quite a few times that my writing feels more like a traditional novel.)

Hello!

I have some free time, and by some, I mean a lot. I normally spend it just refreshing pages hoping my view count will go up, so I figure I can do something a little more productive.

I will volunteer to provide feedback on your fiction. Some exclusions may apply.

I won't read anything AI-generated or AI-assisted because you've already chosen your path.

I can be fickle, I can be picky, I will at least try and read the first chapter at minimum. I probably won't read more than a dozen unless I really like it. I will then provide my thoughts in whatever form I feel like. This could be a few thoughts, some sort of suggestions here and there, or I might go a little overboard and throw out extensive alternatives to whatever you wrote as examples of what I think could be done better.

If I try reading your story and I do not like it enough to finish the first chapter, I will provide feedback on what I do read and the reasons I do not like it. It may be as simple as being too far outside of my reading preferences.

Provide a link, at minimum. If you don't I am not going to go hunting for it. I am lazy.

Hey there, if this thread is still okay with reviewing stories and/or giving feedbacks, is it alright if I send a link here?

Hello there,

Just started writing and managed to drop my first 3 chapters after reading them again and again.

Just curious how should I write my imaginations better as I always write whenever I imagine specific scenarios and just go that way.

Please do roast or toast my work so I may learn new ways to write this story.

My first ever novel. I'm not a native speaker so I don't have high expectation. Roast it. Much love.

Hey, just started my first novel at the start of this month, a culmination of nearly a decade of ideas in my head, so feel free to give harsh critique!

Just to be upfront, AI was used to help plan out the idea, then help in place of an editor to help tune chapters after I write them. Nothing was AI generated or anything like that so i don't think it can be considered 'AI.'

Fair if you don't want to read it because of that, would appreciate it if you did though.

I just need a human to look at it cause chatgpt been hella glazing so need someone to take me down a notch??
