I think this is probably what I've been overlooking. I write because I love to write, it doesn't need to perfect and not everybody needs to like it. Thanks for the reminder.

How do you get over that ? Lately, I've been struggling with this feeling. I've rewritten a certain chapter couple of times already and each time it still won't come out right, so I end up only getting angrier at myself. Then, I begin to think, why do I ever bother ? It's not like anyone would...

Writing gets more difficult the further you progress into your story. I write different scenes within a chapter and let them cool off, unedited. Later, I go back and edit them. I make sure to maintain the proper flow and pace between the scenes. Once I end up with a satisfactory outcome, I...

You write well and the premise of the story is interesting. Keep at it :blob_okay:

The one question that truly matters LOL :blob_joy: Jokes aside, this seems interesting and I like the writing so keep it up !

I personally find Dystopia to be the most overused and over-saturated genre in modern Si-fiction. It's rarely done right in YA literature. TV actually tends to deal with Dystopian narratives much better. Take Westworld or Handmaid's Tale for example. I read both books and although they are...

Imagine an opening scene, a middle scene and an ending scene. Connect them. That's how you get a general plot. You can always adjust, edit and rewrite the parts in between.

I hope you won't be discouraged by what I might say but you asked for feedback so here is it. Firstly, the punctuation. It's too messy. Try to clean it up. Secondly, the chapters are too short in my personal opinion which results in the writing being lacking in terms of details and...

I guess the key to overcome anxiety is to embrace the mindset of writing for yourself. Just stop thinking about what others would think or the negative comments you might receive or how simple your work might look in comparison to other writers. Just write what you want to write, however way you...

Well I can't say anything more without spoiling the plot but oh well, it's not about forgiving the monster who abused him, because that's impossible, but it is rather about forgiving himself for thinking he was 'too weak'. This is from my personal experience so I don't know if you would agree...

@Assurbanipal_II ah, so I've just went and read the synopsis of that novel on NU. Looks interesting, the general premise might seem similar to I'm going for but not really.The true goal of my protagonist's journey is not revenge. It's personal growth and letting go of the past. There are people...

Noted, I will tone them down. I was worried about that aspect so I will see how to keep the atmosphere without overdoing it. Bunny slave girl ? no. I don't recognize that novel. The story is inspired, as all written works are, by other works, specifically an older Chinese novel and a certain BL...

Than you for your honest opinion. I guess you are right. Stories like this had been written many times in this genre and I know I might not even find an audience for this work but I believe one should at least try to finish what they started. I will try to make it as less 'generic' as I can...

It means we will be barbecued alive. That would be an interesting experience.

Thank you so much @BlueDream for giving me some of your time. I appreciate your feedback. About the terms, that's the reason I decided to add a glossary for them prior to the first chapter. I wanted a give this world and its culture a sense of uniqueness. I also considered adding an explanation...

So, today I've uploaded the very first chapter to a story I've had stuck in my head for a while now. It's called Hearts of Rust. It's a high/dark fantasy that features a time slip (going back in time) and a non-heterosexual male protagonist ( so yeah.. boys-love). It's narrated through first...
