Writing management? :blob_shock: :blob_dizzy: This is a very broad question, like asking about economic management. It might take a semester to answer comprehensively. (Shakes head) Or it could take more three years to earn a bachelor's degree in creative writing. Lol

One indicator of successful characterization is when readers can recognize who the speaking character is based on their unique voice. It might seem easy if there are only 1-3 characters. But what if there are 7 characters speaking in a single chapter? It's very possible for readers to get...

Honestly, it's unrealistic to edit >1m words in 1 month, dude. For comparison, I spent 1 month just to edit 20 chapters (~50k words). Editing is a tiring job, even harder than writing a new chapter. Writers need to dissect their manuscripts, analyze narrative structures, find narrative errors...

Congratulations! Today, I'm also happy to have received a 5-star rating for my hiatus fiction (Detective Clara). Readers should know... even seemingly 'trivial things' like likes, comments, ratings, or reads can mean a lot to authors. Because authors see their work appreciated by others...

I just realized you're a woman. :blob_melt: At least I didn't make the same mistake, mistaking you for a man in public like I did with her. @Rolanov :blob_aww: Wait a minute... I did it here.:blob_shock:

I asked a question: Lying about writing = not writing; Lying about not writing = writing; Lying about writing or not = ??? Gemini answered: Based on the logic of your paradox, the answer is Silence. Line 1: Claims a state of action while being stagnant. Line 2: Claims a state of stagnation...

I'd say a story with a simple, albeit clichéd, idea can be an amazing story if executed well. Conversely, I'd say a story with a bombastic, subversive idea can be boring if executed poorly. In the case of isekai, I suspect that many (trial and error) authors take shortcuts to ride the 'isekai...

Dude/sis... sorry, I stopped reading here. The reason? This is a moral lecture. Opening a scene with a moral lecture is the last option in narrating the opening scene. Why? As a reader, I don't reject the moral message of the story. But the interpretation of the moral message should be done by...

The OP is actually trying to convey the character's emotions through subtle emotion, using dialogue and body language (showing). That's the golden rule. But perhaps the narrative clues to the emotions aren't strong enough, leaving the reader confused. The solution is to emphasize body language...

Don't be afraid to make mistakes; humans learn from them. Don't worry too much about writing mistakes; every writer starts with a single ink-filled scribble, like the name of this website.

Let the melody of rain be a lullaby...

I feel like this thread is just a way to show off (character) trauma. It reminds me of the Spongebob Salty Spitoon meme...

Dude... this time I'm not judging your narrative quality objectively, I'm purely giving a preference assessment regarding the hook of the prologue piece. This might be harsh... the rating is 1/5. Reason: I'm confused about what this prologue is about? Why does the narrator say he's dead? Is...

The first POV inherently acts as an unreliable narrator. The narrative camera uses the character's perspective directly to perceive their world. You cannot know the emotions and thoughts of other characters. Even if the "I" provides interpretations regarding other characters, that information...

The RR algorithm differs from SH. SH relies more on visibility and accessibility to drive engagement. RR, on the other hand, relies more on recommendation system algorithms, either through linking between fiction or paid promotion. In RR, visibility when releasing fiction only lasts a few...

Well, I just read your latest chapter in one go. My overall impression is that, as a first POV, your narrative successfully transformed me into 'Aiko'. I could feel her fear, anxiety, and sadness through her thoughts, senses, and psychological reactions. Your narrative is rich in sensory...

Motherhood, sisterhood in suffering, and a post-apocalyptic amnesiac world: (1) Motherhood is the center of gravity of the story. My story centers on the relationship between a mother and a little daughter where the mother is the main protagonist who tries to live peacefully after her dark...

Let's make a magical girl cult in SHF. But don't invite @Envylope , her envy has burned half the world.
