    how big of a creature can you kill without entering into illegal territory?

    I can kill an ant without going to jail, but will that stay the same for when I gun down a dog in the streets? Let's see how large can we get in our murdering spree without having the feds knocking on our doors. PS: Use whatever laws u live by or are familiar with in this thought experiment.

    Writing What method do you use for rapid expositions?

    Authors always overestimated how much information their readers need to understand the plot. But, for the sake of argument, let's say that the scene on which you'll build the whole story upon needs the readers to have a certain level of understanding of the mechanics of the world for it to have...

    What type of music do you listen to while you write?

    I cannot write if I don't act out the scene in real life. So I rarely ever use music

    Styles of narration

    If there is one thing that can be called the author's signature, it would be their style of narration. By that I mean every word that isn't the voice of a character. The words you choose to describe a scene are very important. Example, take these two sentence: My eyes shot open like a dragon...

    Writing Warning: A bit Macabre

    I don't think people have experimented enough with burning human bodies to present you with a formula you can use to deduct how long it takes to burn a human body to a crisp. Or even if they did, I'm not sure that they would be kind enough to share that kind of information. Add to that the fact...

    Writing Warning: A bit Macabre

    blue flames are generally 2600-3000 degrees C. To cremate a body, you need 800 degrees and at that temperature, you need about 3 hours. Now, I have no idea how the relationship goes between temperature and the speed of cremation, but bottom line, it's less than 3 hours

    Merging prologue and synopsis

    From all the answers that everyone so generously provided, I think I have an idea about why this approach might not work. At least, in my opinion, I think that the readers don't want to be intimate with a character from a story they might not enjoy. They want to make sure that it's a story...

    Merging prologue and synopsis

    @yansusustories interesting. What if I go from that paragraph to a more general overview. Something like: As I walked through the road of corpses, I couldn't help but look up. The sky was beautiful. Blue, blue like her eyes that glistered like a thousand sun. Those same eyes with which she...
