(take my opinion with a grain of salt ♥️, I am no expert in anything) Bouncing off of everyone else. I agree that the synopsis feels too long and is hard to understand. I had no idea what the words "braggadocio" or "nescient" even meant, until I did a Google search. Granted, maybe other readers...

I don't write everyday, but when I do, it can vary between roughly 8-14 pages before I decide to stop. The amount of time it takes for me to write that much is a few (or many :blob_popcorn:) hours. I don't always do a word count specifically. "I don't write everyday, but when I do," We are...

Guts from Berserk, Dr. Kenzo Tenma from Monster and...Rigby from Regular Show :ROFLMAO: (He starts out as insufferable early on, but gradually experiences positive growth and ends up being waaaaaaaaay more likable than Mordecai)

? (as far as I know) I've never injected any real internal sadness or pain into my writing. What I can do though, like a trained actor, is try my hardest to FAKE being sad or in pain to guage how well those feelings are translating into what's being written in the moment ?. Since it's a "fake...

Genius. This sounds like the exact tagline for a modern Disney movie. I can hear ?one is the loneliest number? playing during the trailer already...? Yep, I'd also say Berserk, and/or any fictional world where demons and ghosts are never far away ?

I went with "sometimes" because sometimes I build up a stock by accident ?. Like the first round of a published chapter can be editing the same document over and over again (depending on how new the story is ?). Then, I make a new document/draft when significant edits or re-writes need to happen.

I agree. People don't like feeling they are being hunted down on the internet ?, regardless of any positive or negative intent. And yeah, asking publicly is the best approach. Ain't nothing wrong with leaving a simple "Reviews and Ratings are appreciated" (or anything similar) in the synopsis...

Well, everything I write HAS the intention of going through editing or proofreading eventually :blob_shade: , even if it's not the first round of fixing :coffee:. Upon every re-read, I usually catch something along the way whether it's a tiny tiny tiny mistake, or making something great sound...

THIS! ♥️ If an author already has a clear ending to a "story arc/series ending" in mind, then that author should just wait until executing that vision first, before taking plot direction advice from the readers. If it bombs, hey, they can always remake it if they believe in it enough. Or accept...

Yes! The evil radar! :cool: That's how I feel about it too. Sometimes it can't be explained, only felt. I describe that feeling, as a feeling of repulsion. Not sticking around, no attempts to explain why, just accept the repulsive feeling and get away from it... ...unless you can't get...

I'm not a :blob_party:popular:blob_party: author, but I still wanna give my input :blob_shade: Nothing I write fits snugly into any popular categories/genres ( as far as I know :blob_hide: ), and that has not worked against me ❤️. The only thing I can ask for is: 1. Write what I wanna write...

I'm glad you like the illustrations ♥️☺️♥️, I can't take credit for the art, but I do pass along any positive comments back to the artist(s) ♥️ (Royal Four-Ces is what I was alluding to ?. Only a few chapters have been cleaned up so far ?, but that's the one I'm currently reformatting + adding...

(It'll probably make me sound dumb or biased considering how many stories are like this ?) But *sometimes* a really high chapter (several hundred+) count can be enough to stop me from picking up a story at all. With that said, if there are clear stopping points like "Volume" or "Book 1" or...

Nice! Hope that works out for ya! ? If it were ever an option, sure that would be nice ♥️, but I'm content with how things are right now ❤️. I don't mind if it is never an option. It would obviously be a self-publishing thing, but I have thought about trying to eventually sell ebooks ? and see...

You're welcome, wish I could say more ?. Whatever you go with you, do the best you can ? Oh! About editing, definitely check out Grammarly. When it works well, it's super helpful ?. Even when it gives bad editing suggestions, it teaches you how to be combative, disagree, and come up with...

whew These are some tough ones to answer, because everyone has a different style and there isn't always an objectively correct answer (plus some may be greedy and don't want to share their secret recipes ??) I can try my best to answer #s 3 and 7 ?. Just be genuine and don't hold yourself...

I used it before for one of my novels (Royal Four-Ces), because since it has a card game element to it ?? I thought the rules of the game would work better in the Glossary, rather than a colossal info dump in the story ?? I have no clue if a single reader has interacted with the Glossary, but...

I like to promote Royal Four-Ces and Amber Age as light novels, because they are loaded with illustrations ?????????????????? Royal Four-Ces will be getting even more, because I'm taking advantage of the hiatus by slowly going back in, cleaning up the text ?, and adding new art when it's ready...

My time to shine :cool: (on behalf of the amazing artist, Revanche7th ❤️, that did art for me :blob_aww:). This is the main character, Faith Roos, with her favorite card, The Queen of BurningHEARTS. Revanche7th ❤️ made this and lots of other illustrations in the novel, by the way, in case I...

Silence definitely is worse. With zero feedback from others I'd then be forced to rely on self-critique, which can be tricky if I can't compare my thoughts with readers. If someone is being an asshole for the sake of being an asshole, that's really easy to ignore. At least the asshole speaks...
