    To Those Who Write Fight Scenes...

    Well, there are many aspects to analyze from a fight scene. But I will focus on one thing: visualizing the fight scene that is easy for readers to imagine. Have you tried cinematic action narrative to narrate a fight scene? This narrative works by depicting the fight like an action movie. Some...

    I have a question regarding AI.

    Grammarly is actually more of a tool for correcting sentences and words based on UK standards. It even forces US spellings to be UK. Grammarly can't detect ambiguous sentence structure errors. I find Grammarly as a tool with many shortcomings, even though it helps establish standards.

    Reader Poll — Chapter Format

    In my experience, short chapters quickly increase the exposure of your fiction. However, they also decrease the artistic value of your narrative (writing complex narratives requires longer chapters). Finally, I opted for longer chapters (1.5k - 3k words) to maintain artistic value and...

    Would this kind of story interest you?

    I've always disliked sports fiction or tournaments... I've only ever watched two fictions. But that was a long time ago. Besides, why bother watching sports fiction when we can watch live sports?

    Does anyone else have the same problem as me? After writing an epic battle (e.g., kaiju vs. kaiju), you're satisfied, then stop for a few days because your creative energy is depleted. And you're burdened with the expectation of writing even more epic scenes for the next battle, especially...

    Someone mocked the author as someone who likes to imagine and daydream, even though he himself still watches Hollywood, anime, and urban legends. Maybe he doesn't realize... the authors have lived since ancient times and built civilization through myths, legends, and folk tales.

    Feedback/Review swap

    Well, I'll be honest. It's worth noting that I'm just a passing reader. So, I'll just share what I understand from reading the prologue and chapter one once. First, a quick comment: I'm not impressed. The prologue itself presents an epic fantasy with a long war history as an introduction...

    Feedback/Review swap

    Okay, let's just ignore the word 'good' and just call them readers. That phrase is only meant to show politeness (if nothing else). And of course, the forum is mostly filled with authors (although there are readers too). But don't forget that authors are generally born from experienced readers...

    I mean... post the chapter in this thread and let people who read it comment or share their opinions. Bots won't comment on the chapter's strengths and weaknesses unless they're offering a service or art. Besides, bots rarely visit the forum (if they do, members will usually proactively report...

    Authors, what do you prefer digital writing (typing) or writing on paper (pen)?

    My writing looks like a doctor's handwriting, I'll skip it and choose to type.

    I recommend using Google Photos. Google clearly offers a free service with ample storage space for personal images, with no time limits. For some reason, this service isn't popular among SH members.

    Sometimes I miss... and want to read emotional stories. Like Kaori's final letter to Arima and Frodo and Sam's final journey on Mount Doom. It's a shame that fiction these days rarely showcases the emotional and human side. I want fiction that can make me cry.

    Well, the last fanfic I ever read was a story about Naruto x Hinata after marriage. That was a long time ago. I read it on fanfiction.
