    Whats up with the "Similar series" Algorithm?

    I think that it doesn't like me. Truly a sad day.

    Whats up with the "Similar series" Algorithm?

    I've recently noticed that 2 of my longer stories don't have any similar series attached to them. This is particularly strange because early on when I first tarted publishing the stories they did have a similar stories section, but now there's nothing. The themes and contents of the stories...

    I didn't even notice the paragraphs were as chunky as they are, thank you.

    Looking for ways to revise older work

    Hey y'all, I've been on a bit of a editing kick, but I feel like I constantly slamming my head against a brick wall in terms of revisions and edits. Because I will write something give it a gloss over once or twice to fix a thing here and there and then call it a day. My problem is I just don't...

    What traits should a protagonist have to make readers invest in them?

    Flaws, Soooo many flaws. Make them just real pathetic. But actually usually just a dash of trauma can make a character compelling. The flaw really depends on what the character's arc(if they have one) is.

    Which variant is better?

    You're right, I'm a fake Architecture nerd :( The one in Chicago is the John Hancock Center(Very crucial difference). It's a few years older than the one in Boston. The reason it gets confused with the Sears/Willis tower is because they both share the same aesthetic(black steel bracing and the 2...

    Which variant is better?

    technically it's the hancock tower. you can differentiate it from the willis/sears tower from the slant of the exterior. the hancock tower has a taper as it gets higher which the willis/sears tower is made up of multiple rectangular "tubes" stitched together.

    What Am I Doing This For?

    I've found what works best for me, is to set myself hard deadlines. I made this account originally to force me to keep writing a story consistently. Setting deadlines helps to solve 2 problems. over editing/analyzing, once that deadline is hit, that's it no more editing just submit and move...

    Which variant is better?

    This is for a very weird vampire story that takes place in Chicago. It has a trans main character which is why the one on the right has a trans-flag background. The right image was the original but the left is a more recent iteration I think I like better but who's to say.

    Cover Art Opinions?

    Perhaps increase the clarity of the symbol and make the cloud a little less saturated. That to me is the focal point of the cover but currently the title and the cloud draw far too much attention from it.

    Cover Art Opinions?

    I really dislike stories that utilize this AI cover art. The actual story may genuinely be great but I just can't bring myself to support people that so casually use AI art for their own work.

    Where do you save your outlines, plans, plots, etc.? + a small apology

    I almost exclusively use Obsidian. I love it it makes it so easy to store all of my notes.
