    As a reader, what is your attention span tolerance for the minimum and maximum number of sentences in a paragraph?

    Depends what you are writing. My FF novel is 165 chapters and nearly 450k word count, but within it, my MC has had several 60-100k stories as he travels between worlds. Other than his initial 25 chapters when he was bouncing around between a few of them and getting 'used' to his new reality, I...

    So a few doubts

    I update daily at a minimum of 2000 words, usually 2500. sometimes twice a day at 4000-6000. But I am retired, so that is a BAD guide for most people when it comes to updating. Stick to your normal updates, write your chapter for as long as you think it should be. IMO, if you are less than...

    Developing a counter to my magic system

    Its a fairly unique concept. I can just see the counter force bringing out their special weapons against it. Arrows that resonate with sounds to interrupt the hymm. A tuning arrow if you will... followed swiftly by a volley of actual arrows.

    Fanfics and Monetization

    So? If they are not reporting as such and it bothers you, say something. Particularly if they are monetizing it, as this is what the thread is about. Just bitching about it here won't stop them from happening. Be the change you want to be and all that jazz =P Once I am done with my FF, it...

    We all appreciate her sacrifice in having drawn the short straw when we were deciding who was going to handle the 'Hyper-kitten on crack'

    Y'all i need a review

    - First off, your prologue and c1 are out of order; and - Your title for c1 is all lowercase, while c2 has a single capital. You probably want to make your titles look like this; Chapter 1: The Man Behind the Veil OR Chapter 1: The Man Behind The Veil - I read part of c1 and honestly, I...

    How to be funny and still be a good writer?

    How you do it is up to you. I will swap in comedy after some more serious scenes... like today, my MC got 'princess carried' by an 8 ft tall woman after he healed her injuries and collapsed from near-mana exhaustion... There was a bunch of more serious stuff going on in the last few chapters...

    Easiest way to fix spacing?

    I write in SH editor (yay dark mode!), copy paste to google docs to edit, then copy paste it back... I haven't seen any issues yet.

    Anyone has tips on fantasy eco?

    anyway, OP Your stones should reflect their rarity. Some very common ones would probably be like a commoner trying to buy a nice pair of boots, not impossible for them to get, but they would need to save some money to do so, so maybe 10-20 silver in the economy I mentioned, then move up from...

    /shrug Its the D&D economy except on 100s instead of 10s.

    Anyone has tips on fantasy eco?

    I wasn't going for realism here, just ease of calculation for the writer, so you don't confuse the fuck out of yourself when you are trying to follow that chart you just linked. You are writing a story, not worrying about medieval accounting practices. Like a coin minted from one nation could...

    Anyone has tips on fantasy eco?

    Ahh, yes, the good ol' meat bun economy. Definitely beat the Turnip economics. depends on how normal people live day to day in this world. Is it a decent life, considering they are peasants? Are they struggling even to get the basics? Using the base ten system is usually best for anything...

    As a reader, what is your attention span tolerance for the minimum and maximum number of sentences in a paragraph?

    I prefer the traditional novel format. However, I do most of my reading on a mobile device now, so I prefer no more than 2-4 sentences, then a space for eye relief. If there is one thing on a phone I hate, it is being presented a wall of text. Dialogue follows the same thing. If the person is...

    A normal favorite pet poll!

    Having a cat allows for random interludes of things being knocked off tables, a cat stuck on the curtains, or other devices you can use to segue into your next scene. Or get a duck, for the waddles.

    Time is such a weird thing... rather, the passage of time Sometimes I feel I have been waiting thirty minutes for something, and barely a minute has passed. Other times, I think it's been five minutes, it's actually been four hours.

    Is it bad to Poll my readers on this sorta stuff?

    ... your tags will tell your readers what to expect. If you want to explore something your tags don't explain, you can make an Author's Note saying what you plan to do and asking if that would bother anyone. I just checked your tags. I am assuming this is some kind of relationship you want to...
