    You know, having a non-magical healer in a medieval setting would actually go pretty damn hard. Like, you'd get the opposite of the chosen-one problem with having instead of destiny worship, it's social exile. People wouldn't see miracles, they'd sense violations of how the world is supposed to...

    Is this good as a start point?

    Alright, this felt like a soap opera, and it definitely works as practice. Something you did well was when you refocused on Ray's arm being held by the woman Light likes. Keep that because you're showing the readers what's going on without first explaining it. Yes, you explained it afterwards...

    It won't show up yet; it's got to go through a verification process first and that can take hours up to a day. You have a direct link?

    Is this good as a start point?

    Right, but you're like a cook who's telling us what you intend to make. We can't tell you anything good or bad about it until it's been tasted, and that's not possible until you finish cooking and serve us the dish.

    Are 'em dashes' a put off simply because AI uses it a lot?

    Ah, see there? That inserted shift away from consequence to intent inside the dashes? It's within the sentence rather than its own to avoid breaking the initial point of what they're saying. That's what I meant.

    Are 'em dashes' a put off simply because AI uses it a lot?

    Sometimes I'll use them if I have an intrusive thought in the middle of saying something; emdashes can come in handy to make that stand out as an out-of-context insert.

    Are 'em dashes' a put off simply because AI uses it a lot?

    Maybe as a continuation, but I've never seen a semicolon used as an insert in the middle of a sentence... or maybe I drank that memory away? :blob_hmm:

    Is this good as a start point?

    So you want to write this as practice, right? We may help with the concept, but wouldn't it be better to see what you can do first? Just write it. Let's see what comes out. :blob_okay:

    Feedback on my first chapter

    You're asking about this novel's direction, so we should be focusing on what the chapter is pointing toward; that's what I'm going to do. But right away, I caught something. Enough to accomplish what?

    Writing OELNs

    My opinion? I have fun writing in different styles. That's one of many cores inside of my reasoning to write; having fun is the biggest one. And you're allowed to play in your sandbox however you want. OELN's are a stylistic playground with the rules from traditional English novels. They don't...
