    I have been feeling that something was off regarding the dynamics inside of my novel.

    Sensory writing and sounds using onomatopoeia is a nice way to let the readers immerse within the story and feel as though they are in the scene and one with the character. They can also be used to set the background of the scene. Rather than spelling out the sound, it is much better to use...

    Is it normal for readers to not favourite your chapter?

    The Anti-Reader: Worst Possible Combination of Tags and Genres

    No click bait tags. I kinda suck at putting catchy tags mainly because I only input what is actually in my stories. Thus my novels don't really get much views. Oh well, that's how it is.

    Which is better, Yaoi or Yuri?

    Yaoi still. I don't like imagining a bearded ax wound. Sorry not sorry.

    Nah, I'mma slowly immerse myself into it. Seeing as each chapter is long-ish, I won't be bombing the comment section until I catch up with the most recent chapter.

    A self imposed exile. After releasing shitty chapters, I think I'm gonna go on hiatus for now. As I was reading the new chapters, I couldn't help but cringe. It was so mediocre and boring. I'm so ashamed. :blob_cringe:

    It took time to build back up and appease the disgruntled readers. In the end, I let it be and just continued to write and release new chapters regularly. As the days passed, they began to enjoy the second version. ? Whew! Those were the dark days. It was a tough time that tested my ability to...

    Back story. The novel I was working on was already around 30 chapters but I decided to do a full revision. The story was overhauled and I started to rewrite from chap 10. Readers noticed and they became upset because they liked the first version already. It was a helpless situation. I had to...

    100k words! That's amazing Saileri. I would suffer a burn out after that. There was this time in the past months where I was high in and deep into the writer's headspace that caused me to suffere a massive burnout. Even my health deteriorated back then. My readers were hungry for new chaps and...

    Am I the only one who wants to join a contest but doesn't join in because they don't like the feeling of being rushed to do their work? Deadlines worked for me back in the academe days but it seems not to work for creative writing which I only do for my own leisure. Ps. I think the readers'...
