    Feedback on my first chapter

    I understand and accept the criticism given. The whole premise was meant to lean more into a comedic trope rather than a serious fight. My thought process when writing it was that since it wasn't supposed to be a serious battle between them, the narration of the fight, or at least the...

    Feedback on my first chapter

    Hello, I’m creating a new series about a hero who eventually loses his financial income after defeating the demon lord. I haven’t published the second chapter yet, but I’d love to get some critiques or thoughts to help me solidify the direction of the story. Thanks in advance. Link To Story

    Besides writing, what's the best way to improve as a writer?

    I do that subconsciously. I boiled it down to maybe a weird habit I had but I guess other people do it too with a clear purpose.

    Opinion on ai?

    Question on this specifically, what is their motive/end goal? I had the pleasure of having none on ScribbleHub but I do run into them on other sites. Even though I never respond to them, I do still wonder what they want?

    How do you gain readers for your fiction when you’re new?

    In all honesty, I didn’t even think of the blurb as being an important part of traction. I tried my best to keep the summary more ambiguous until I have a clearer overall structural direction to head toward. I approached it this way because I’m still new to storytelling and don’t yet know what...

    Is anyone else using Scrivener to write their stories?

    Honestly, with how often I’ve had to fix formatting issues after finishing a chapter, it probably would’ve been better for me to stick with Google Docs. I really wish I had known about the name generator earlier, but I can definitely try to use it going forward. I do really like the export...

    Is anyone else using Scrivener to write their stories?

    I’ve been using Scrivener for a bit shy of three months, but I haven’t really gotten to explore all of the features it provides fully yet. I know there are tools that seem especially useful for organization, such as sections for characters and maps to keep track of things, but that’s about as...

    How do you gain readers for your fiction when you’re new?

    Thank you so much for all the insight. I don’t have a firstborn to sacrifice yet, but the other advice helped a lot. As of now, I really don't care about the long term views. What I want more than anything at this stage is a comment. Positive or negative, just someone criticizing the fiction...

    How do you gain readers for your fiction when you’re new?

    Hello, I’m new to uploading my work onto platforms. I wonder how I can pique the interest of more readers now that I have a few chapters under my belt and the three-chapter rule doesn’t apply anymore. Is it just hard to get views, is the story not appealing, or is it simply how things are due...
