    As an author, what is your take on 'reviews'?

    Personally, it's one of the reasons I don't write much anymore; I might as well keep the stories to myself.

    Posting your Novel in Qidian Webnovels. Why and Why Not?

    I caught the whole the drama back then too. You should post where you want. I hear that they have contracts the aren't that good, though, so do some research first. You can also try Wattpad.

    Some of those incomplete sentences are there for style. The misspellings aren't. And the second sentence had been pointed out to me, I'll fix it before releasing this serial. Referring to the pores not being brought up prior to their mentioning, I took it as granted people knew sweat came from...

    Thanks to both of you. I'll lean more into the mind of the character, rather than writing the text in a detached manner, to fix most of those problems.

    The church was small and surrounded by white rocks. It was so bright out during midday, the shadows of seagulls were ink black to Fredrick's eyes, besides his own which sometimes wavered. White, thick grains of salt irritated his skin. More sweat attempted to come out of those pores, causing...

    I can't seem to get my bearings on writing or think by myself

    If you have a lot to say, write like you can't keep those words in. Talk our ears off.

    How long should a regular chapter be?

    A lot of people probably disagree with my short chapter format. But, if you make every word count it does work. Most of my old ones are amateurish, but as I improve my stories are written even more potently. And, I have seen this sort of writing succeed. Nelson DeMille, Dean Koontz, and some...

    How long should a regular chapter be?

    I write about five hundred. I aim for quality and concept in my writing, not word count. Though, I wish they were two thousand word long chapters. Writing is strenuous for me.

    Is nudity sufficient qualifications for a sexual content warning?

    Well, if someone's naked I could see why it'd be considered sexual, even more so in the west, at least. More importantly, are you writing about bathing? Reasons to get naked that aren't sexual are usually left out of books because they're boring.

    Need help with a character's mannerism

    I touch my nose, often, and sometimes I fold two of my fingers inwards whenever I walk quickly.

    Polarized

    I used to pants, as they call it, now I'm a plotter. And I'm making my own system to do so. Plotting allows me the freedom not to worry about memory and creativity, and the freedom to only worry about creativity. Now my process is short form plotting; five chapters ahead at most is what I worry...

    Why? What makes you want to write? What is your "Writer's Creed"?

    I like techniques and fluidlity. In fighting, sports, or writing. I won't say I enjoy writing, what I enjoy is practicing anything I can. I write because I don't like a lot of stories, and I like reading my own.

    A Razors Edge - Balance between description and brevity

    This isn't an issue to worry about. Write what you like, realize that you can't, at first. And practice until you enjoy your own writing, as much as you enjoy anyone else's. Writing for me is for myself.
