    y'all I need help im losing motivation for my book

    Well, I won't say "Everything is fine. Keep writing!" If a friend criticizes your writing after reading it, there are two possibilities: (1) Your writing doesn't suit his/her taste. Reader dislke the content of the story because his/her taste is different. (2) Your writing is difficult to...

    Feedback for Handling Sensitive Content

    Thank you for the clarification. I did try to minimize the narrator's voice in the narrative and make the scenes more subtext that can be interpreted by the reader. I think this approach does have the weakness of ambiguity because it requires the reader to interpret the narrative, rather than...

    First-Person POV or Third-Person / Author POV?

    I closed my eyes to the second example. Which is better, the first POV or the third POV? The short answer is, it depends on your narrative needs. If your fiction is centered around a single character, then the first POV might be better at providing an immersive experience for the reader...

    Since we're talking about writing experiences...

    You should understand that The relationship between author, fiction, and reader is like a symbolic contract. The author provides a narrative to the reader. Readers know the narrative is "fictional," but they are willing to be bound by the "lie" to achieve a sense of experience. Reading fiction...

    I stopped reading shoujo not because of the cliche tropes. It's just that... I hate it when the FMC gets taken by a random guy even though the fictional premise uses "family" labels: mother-daughter, father-daughter, brother-sister, and the like. I may be childish, but when reading fiction, I...

    Its official! (re)release of... "the Third Time is the Charm: the Good Stuff"

    I'm sorry, but I can't review your work because this fiction is beyond my taste. I can't force myself to read outside my artistic vision. I feel guilty considering you've given me feedback before. But then again, I'm a sensitive person, perhaps like a picky little girl. Reading fiction for me...

    No need. I did use AI to create the illustration. I won't pretend it was mine. I was happy when Gemini could produce this illustration just from the narrative clues in the chapter.

    I have 5 fictions. 3 fictions on hiatus, 1 fiction in draft, 1 ongoing fiction (main series). Forget the 4 fictions for a moment, the main series has reached over 200k words (not fully released) with 2 arcs (completed). Although the main series is still ongoing, I am satisfied to have completed...

    Recommendations Can you recommend one fiction title that sticks out in your mind after reading it many years ago?

    I've been reading it since the web novel. And now the LN is finished. The final fight scene made me laugh and cry at the same time.

    I didn't know how to react. The beginning of the post... I wanted to give a loving reaction. But when I read the ending, I laughed bitterly.

    Thank you for your honest feedback. :blob_salute: :blob_aww: Thematic depth is related to the issues raised in the fiction that drive the plot. For example, idealism vs. realism, personal love vs. chivalrous duty, war vs. morality, etc. Thematic depth can vary from fiction to fiction. This...

    Fighting sequence against 'Mini-Boss'

    This is indeed an experience. Anyone can read Deep POV theory, but not necessarily apply it precisely. You need to write and edit more. Don't hesitate to read great works to broaden your experience and vocabulary. Cheers!:blob_hug:
