Witch. But also... Ser Voyne from The Starving Saints.

I like the detail specifying that the office is posh, but I'm less a fan of the all-glass detail. At this point it's just description, but doesn't reveal much else, so it could be more potent/pithy. It's kind of weird to have visual descriptors like this accompany "I hear" -- it's not like his...

I was reminded of this just now because I'm watching a video essay about misery memoirs and the presenter makes a good point about how individualism played a huge part in the boom of misery lit because it frames suffering (especially in the context of child abuse) as something that the...

What a sizzling hot take that Mein Kampf is problematic.

Yeah why not.

Yikes, that's a fucked-up message. Hyper-individualism is toxic.

Okay, so many thoughts about this. Starting with "a man" rather than a named character isn't great because your opening should attempt to intrigue and interest us in the character's fate, and "a man" immediately places distance between us and the character. Being tired isn't that interesting or...

Jesus Christ, this makes me want to reach for a rape whistle.

Hi Leslie, welcome. Nice to meet a fellow English on here - I'm on the southeast coast, though, so nowhere near Yorkshire. It's very refreshing to see your kind of story on here, and one that clearly has a lot of heart behind it.

Comedy has to make sense, otherwise you're just recycling the "omg so random xD" trend from the Before Time. I want to know why these people have been chosen, what beautiful tensions will arise through a clash of personalities, what is the emotional heart of the story that comes from disparate...
