    Gentle Pacing

    You're not the first I've seen that with! I ran into someone else who wrote things like DnD, leading to many pacing and plotting issues. It was a pain to help them clean up. -.- Though I feel there's much more I can expand on this with relation to plotting, to get that proper balance. It's part...

    Gentle Pacing

    I'm going to be a bit blunt here and say most webnovels suck at pacing. I often run into plot driven writing that could do with knowing more on how to slow the plot, especially with dialogue writing and exploring characters. So I put this together as an overview, but I feel much more I'll need...

    Discussion on Writing Styles

    Oh, honestly, I wouldn't have responded. Because I've said some stuff in the past, I hate repeating stuff every few months, and going into depth is a time sink. It's why I'd just make a video instead. I do that whenever I'm in the mood or have an incentive to help someone.

    Discussion on Writing Styles

    I might. What exactly do you want to know about my experiences? I can't guarantee I'll answer; it just depends on how much effort I need to put into it. I tend to either be insanely productive or incredibly lazy.

    Healing Genre Tips

    I'm always glad to hear stuff like this (and thanks in general), as I really want to leave something positive and constructive instead of just another voice in the endless sea of complaining.

    Discussion on Writing Styles

    I feel like this may have been something I went on about some time or another... There's more I could say, and far greater detail could go into it, but that's a good basic setup on it.

    Techniques for Creating Backstory

    I realized I forgot to post this here yesterday, so... here we go. I have realized I need to add one more step to my process -- something I've been doing anyway, but need to formalize -- but that'll come up later on when I get back to it. Regardless, this completes the series I've done...

    Creating Believable Characters

    Nearing the end of my character creation method breakdown and finally got around to doing this again (for the last time). To note, when I do it, I'm actually quite fast since I already know how it all works. I'm just getting people caught up to me.

    10 Tips for Handling Allegory

    If there's one thing I've accepted, it's that the algorithm hates me. XD But no matter, I'm glad to share what I can.

    Hmm... This could make a good video topic to give my two cents on.

    10 Tips for Handling Allegory

    I pushed myself as much as I could on this one to help with this subject, so I hope it does something for someone. I hate how long this one ended up being, given how my work tends to get treated when I put actual effort in, but oh well.

    Why Fantasy Writers Should Use Allegory

    The fact it doesn't come until later doesn't negate what it does. In fact, one technique I fully intend to mention is to gradually introduce allegory. You don't have to rush to things. Also, there are stuff that can be viewed through an allegorical lens even in Season 1 with the takeaways and...

    Why Fantasy Writers Should Use Allegory

    I started creating a bunch of stuff for writing light fantasy, but each part ended up as a topic in and of itself, so... here we are. Starting with me discussing allegory.

    Does this help? I can easily follow up on this, though.

    Writing Comedic Jerks

    I noticed that the more they are the protagonist or closer to the role, the more you need those noble traits here and there to balance it out. That and/or suffering. Like, to have them suffer a lot for their rudeness to balance stuff out.
