I see! Thank you for your advice! :blob_aww: I think you are right. Most first drafts of stories lack something. Either characters or world, so for this to work, we need to redo the story. Hm... I might do this at a later date. Just revamp the whole Gate series to see how it goes!?
:blob_happy: Oh, I see! You mean a reboot! Like the legend of Zelda. Same storyish, different atmosphere? Heheh, I see what you mean! Hmm... But that eventually becomes its own story, no? It is like building on the old foundation until you bring out a new world within the old one. Isn't that...
Thank you for the advice! I'll try that for my second try at a story! I think I will leave my first story trilogy as a character-focused story, then go to my second with all the things I have learned. :blob_aww:
Though I think the main issue in my first book is that the MC is a very sheltered...
I'm lovable, I know. Who can resist my fluffy face! I call that a sin! ?
Hehe... Thank you for the info! I shall look into it since it is where I lack in my stories the most. Though I write more character-focused stories than epic worlds! *I want to build epic worlds one day.*:blob_aww:
I personally love Limited POV. People experience what the MC sees, and that is it. Though it can come with people wanting to know more. Well, read more and you will see more like the MC experiences it. The world is limited though and twisted through the perception of the MC.
I write in FPV...
Hehehe... You are right! Description is the way of life! I honestly don't know how people can write a story and not describe things. Like to me, that isn't an immersive story. If you don't describe the world, then it isn't there. How will I know the pretty flowers from the ugly ones if you...
Hahah! I think you nailed me! I usually can tell how a book/story is going to end before it even starts flowing towards the climax. There are some exceptions that genuinely surprise me, but my hubby calls me a killjoy when we watch movies or series together. I am like... well... it was obvious...
Uh... I use my right to remain silent. They can use everything against me at a later date. World domination has to be done on a clean slate! :blob_hide:
HAH, I excel at this! Though, just so you know, this is all plans for my world domination. I am a goddess in some plebeians' eyes in this forum. So, *cough, cough* I won't bow to you, You bow to me! Muahahahahahahaahahah. ?
Ignorance = happiness. Might be crazy to hear, but it is true. Ignorance leads people to ignore issues and what better way to live than to be unaware of the burning world. Living without problems or issues now is the way. Thus, I would probably stay on the island. Being enlightened comes with...
Ah, a fellow cat. Hello! Anxiety is a normal response to any stressor. This is a learning experience. The best way to go about everything is to have 0 expectations, then the results will surprise you.
Don't think about how many readers you will get or if your next story is the next hot shit...
uh... I always wrote to myself since I was 13. It was on and off, but I started publishing at the start of this year on another website. And since then I have improved drastically. ?
