    Feedback for A Little Daughter Character

    Hello! Keep in mind, I'm not a very good writer, so take any of my advice with a bag of salt. With that out of the way: Just ditch the sound and voice. Try: I was singing by the riverside when a splash interrupted me. The last part is cute if the kid is young enough. I feel that "I" would...

    Is 9k words too much?

    Yes. Many readers will skip it, even if it is very well written. Better to split it into 2K or 3K chapters.

    I need opinions about a chapter

    Good day to everyone; I hope you are doing well. I'm learning how to become a writer and would appreciate your help. Could anyone please read this chapter and let me know: Are the descriptions detailed enough? Do the dialogue, characters' motivations, and behaviors feel natural? Do I overuse...

    What do you think of this character introduction?

    Hi! Keep in mind, I'm not a very good author, so avoid trusting my suggestions. So, here's the first thing: No need to mention orc twice. Try to use "burly brute" or "towering figure." Any reason not to use the more classic: His eyes shimmered like polished topaz from behind a black operatic...

    Need feedback for my future story

    Sorry to bother you, but I need help. I'm finishing my current novel and beginning to work on my next story. Could you please tell me: 1) If the text is readable. 2) If I don't overexplain stuff. 3) How bad is the dialogue? 4) Is this a bad way to start a story or a not-so-poor way? 5) If...

    Hoshi's Feedback thread

    Thank you for your kind offer! Here's my current story https://www.scribblehub.com/series/1950602/overcome/ My goal is to earn comments (not money or anything like that). So any advice on how to improve to earn readers and their interaction would be awesome.

    Critique Requested - Aerial Battle Sequence

    Hi, there! Keep in mind, I'm a rather poor author, so take any of my words with the grain of salt. With that out of the way, let's go: Too much info. Veiled fury, desperation to vent... go for a simpler fuming with fury. Or remove "she was desperate to vent" (we already can guess this much)...

    What did you learn today?

    The "Washizu arc", from the manga Akagi, started in 1997 and ended in 2017. This is an arc focused on the match of Akagi versus Washizu. Should you ever think you draw events for too long... Know that this exists. It is awesome, and Akagi's jaw is the stuff of legends.

    Does SH have a lot of bots?

    In my experience, bots are more common here than readers. Not tossing any accusations, but scroll down to the comment section: https://www.scribblehub.com/read/1950602-overcome/chapter/2047476/ There are no favorite on this chapter except mine. This story can't even get people to reply in...

    Chat, Am I Cooked?

    Not going to sugarcoat it, yeah. If your goal is getting comments and readers, this story won't take off here, sorry. 18 chapters is enough to judge. But hey, I bet you learned a thing or two about the writing, so it wasn't for naught. There's always a second time and an attempt after that and...

    Warning: if you use tools like Grammarly, you need to check the output.

    Not about Grammarly, but I'm using ProWritingAid, and it regularly deducts points from my grammar for: Ruda said. Ruda is one of the MCs of my novel. ProWritingAid wants to change it to Rida Said. What even is this hell? It helped me find mistakes a lot, it beat the desire to overuse "managed...

    Need opinions about my current writing

    Good day to all! I hope you are all healthy and doing well. If possible, I need opinions about: 1) If my dialogues sound normal. 2) If I give enough, too many, or not enough descriptions. 3) If my grammar is decent or awful. Here's the chapter for which I need the feedback...
