    Feedback on my Introduction

    While you weren't asking me directly, the question has me curious. Can you pop the example you want to use in the thread that way I can see what you want in all caps? Thanks!

    Which is the scene you are most proud of having written?

    The bathtub scene for my book Vivienne. Somehow I felt like I was in another zone even I wrote it. What's more, the scene was a last minute addition. It was one of those times where I just felt the passion I was trying to write.

    Which was the great inspiration for your currently main project?

    Well, my current book is Sylvie. I created her as a small character in the prior book, and ended up enjoying her so much that I evolved a story for her. It was a simple case of loving the character and thinking she had a story to bring out. I was right.

    Is Realistic Novels specifically school setting Romance not your thing?

    I stopped reading high school stories after I read the book "13 Reasons Why". It wasn't the content that bothered me, so much as that I just didn't relate to the high school genre anymore. The over reaching drama, which I know is the point, just bothers me now days.

    The Chicken Pen (Feedback Thread)

    Anything to help. I seriously suggest watching that opening to Heat. It's on YouTube. Wonderfully crafted scene.

    The Chicken Pen (Feedback Thread)

    I took the time to give chapter 1 as well. I have a touch of feedback, that isn't so much structural - the chicks took care discussing the editing issues. Mine really comes with the attack on the convoy. 6 trucks in a line with the merc's in the front and rear. The middle 4 have just normal...

    Yes, something like that would be much more to read and visualize. You could even have Victor cross his arms, stay silent for a few seconds and maybe let out a disappointing grunt. Think about your own parents, or any other face to face interaction. It's seldom just silence, as that's mostly...

    I'll add the following. I know it's a popular thing to do this: "...." However, it's literally nothing. Dots have no meaning, convey nothing. You did nothing but put dots on a page. Now, comics get away with that because there is a visual for someone to see. A reaction, a look...

    Username and Avatar

    Mine is easy. I love surfing. I do it every single day. The fact it basically saved my life felt like a little angel on my shoulder. The 1031 is my birthday. As to my avatar, it reminds me of myself and my wife. So I use it :)

    To Lewd Or Not To Lewd

    I'm almost certain that my response will be of zero shock to the beloved vampy queen - Envy. Here goes: I see it in terms of two things erotica and porn. Erotica seeks to celebrate human sexuality through emphasis on emotions and the relationships while still giving a healthy outlook to sex...

    Opinion appreciated

    Looks pretty clear to me. Don't even entertain the notion it's not, just leave the chat or book or whatever it is. Not worth arguing about.

    Which Title?

    The novel name doesn't have to directly say what's going on. Leave that to your details within. With that in mind name the book something catchy like : Codename Conner Then use that has his spy name in the story. I would think that a spy school wouldn't advertise being a spy school and those...

    I have to wonder...

    You probably have a point there. If they are anything like the record industry.

    Subject: Request for Feedback on My Story

    I took a look at the Synopsis and chapter 1. (Writing Style) What you have is more a documentary than a story. It feels like a person is talking to a camera crew and a news reporter giving updates with a small mount of personal history. The question that comes from me is - was this the...

    I have to wonder...

    I write for free anyway. I wouldn't know the first thing about trying to sell what I have. I figure that the safest route is to have a well known publisher take a chance on a story rather than something shady on the internet.

    How to deal with creative block?

    I have had this a few times. Now fortunately for me, I write entire book chapters and split them into parts before I upload to the site. I do not type directly into the editor. If I see a problem that is coming up, I try and back up to where I saw the issue or tangent - Cut it from the document...

    How do you figure out the best time to post something?

    I still don't know this answer, lol. I have been posting for nearly a year. I just picked a good time for me to be able to watch in case something came up, and steady used that time since. For my tiny side of the world, I have notticed M-W-F are my best days and sometime in the afternoon...
