    Your experience using the website/app of fanfiction.net and the pros and cons you guys have encoutered

    It's pretty outdated and the traffic's declining. I prefer AO3 (archive of our own) instead, for fanfics. I always have fewer views and comments on FF in comparison to AO3

    Man.. is it okay for like a chapter to not have 1000+ words?

    Of course, it's fine. As long as it manages to explain what you want to include in the chapter.

    Music & Writing. What groovy tunes do yall like to listen to while youre writing/reading?

    I try to find the song that matches the chapters. So it may range from anime songs, classic rocks to instrumental.

    Is a vigilante an anti-hero?

    Depends on the presentation of the vigilante and the justice itself. e.g if the justice system is corrupt and the vigilante is doing the right thing, then he's not an anti hero.

    Words a day and how long do you write?

    I write one draft + 2k chapters per week, so it's around 400 daily. I have a full-time job, so I am just taking my time.

    Have you ever felt like picking up a dropped story again?

    No, but I had considered rewriting my old story instead. But after some consideration and rereads I end up not writing them. Mostly due to difference in style and story preferences

    I Think I Understand Why Authors Kills Their MCs in the End

    Character death riles people up. There are a lot of characters who are famous because the writer kills them. They won't be that famous if they're still alive, ironically.

    Why do you keep writting?

    People are still reading and liking it so I find no reason to stop. One fan is all I need to continue, since I was too used to write unpublished stories only I enjoyed.

    Should I use Grammarly?

    The free version is pretty barebone, the premium is way better IMHO.

    Was your first book bad?

    It's so bad during a peer preview that I never publish it. lol. the main character is just... annoying, I suppose.

    Why did you start writing?

    I have always loved reading. And so, when I'm reading fanfictions I was wondering, "why don't I start writing one?" and after years of writing fanfiction, I wondered further, "why don't I write my own story?".

    Do you have the feeling that you used a lot of "but" in your chapter?

    I usually read the paragraph out loud in order to make sense out of it. That way you can realise whether you have said some words a bit too much.

    How do I determine if my novel is good or bad?

    There's no clear determining factor IMO, the feedback you get from the readers are the best indicator since it's the one you need the most to improve your work.
