    Reviews and Criticisms needed for my Dragon Fantasy--Star Fire

    The romance is a subplot that develops late in the story, so don't see "Romantasy" and expect anything heavy handed. The first half of the novel will largely focus on the plot and the 3 POV characters (Star, Prometheus, & Dragon), and the romance should come into play mid-novel. So, if you're...

    Hey, no worries on the time delay. I appreciate you taking a look! There is an intent to most of the things that you mentioned, but I won't spend too much time on them. This is all a ruse by Red, while Wolf is in a bit of shock, leading to an existential crisis. You have no way of knowing this...

    Redux Riding Hood [A Soft-Isekai Adventure]

    Chapter 39 (11.3) and 40 (11.4) will be going up tomorrow. There's a significant battle about to take place on the mountain path that flanks the Spartans. Sarah is turning out to be quite the strategist, and it's setting up to be a pretty epic batter over the next few chapters. Anyone have any...

    Free First Chapter Feedback

    Woah, I was late seeing this. I appreciate you taking a look, but I think the biggest difference in our “versions” is voice. It’s not an argument, just an observation. I would like to point out something in one of your gripes, though. “The fact that you don’t then evoke his name is weird and...

    Recommendations Stories where the protagonist dies by the end of the story.

    Bad endings and character deaths aren't necessarily bad for the story. Yeah, I get the hurt feelings of fans, and it sucks when a beloved character dies but death and "bad" endings might be the most honest course for the story. As long as it's fair and true to the story, deaths and UNhappily...

    Initial impressions on name & concept alone.

    That is a train of thought that I would hope potential readers would have! The story deviates from the source material within the first two scenes. It leans heavily on the reader being familiar with the "Oh grandma, what big XYZ you have," because that's where you enter the story, but then it...

    Recommendations Best Writing in Scribble hub ?

    I agree 1,000%. I bought a book from Amazon about a year and a half ago. I chose that specific book because 1) it had 4.5 stars, 2) it was recommended, & 3) it was related to another series that I followed and enjoyed. I finished the book, but I was furious about the utter waste of my time. I...

    lol that's me on most things in general ? Thanks for the feedback! haha yep. That's about what I imagine others think at first glance! Thanks for responding! Of course! All of that makes sense and I'm setting it up to be a serious novel while wanting to circumvent the assumptions that it will...

    Initial impressions on name & concept alone.

    Hey gang, So I'm curious about your predispositions on seeing a story called Redux Riding Hood. The story/title has some obvious framing related to the children's story of Little Red Riding Hood. What are your thoughts on seeing this story/title and finding out that it's an Action/Adventure...

    I would love to get feedback on my story Return.

    Hey Zakuro, I appreciate you sharing that. I have not seen those platforms before and they seem like they'd be great to look into further. So thanks!

    Recommendations Stories where the protagonist dies by the end of the story.

    I'd be happy to. It's called Redux Riding Hood. The story is initially framed after the children's story, Little Red Riding Hood, but immediately deviates in the 1.2 Always Prepared chapter. Ultimately, you're following Sarah (Red Riding Hood), Jack (the huntsman), and Wolf. The story is...
