    Good or Mad? My plot idea.

    I really need to ask now: Is my story idea mad? Too dark? To put it politely. Or bluntly, sadistically cruel? Now, I know we, as writers, should write what we like if it is just for fun. Only when we plan to monetize it should we be worried about reader reception. Honestly I am stuck somewhere...

    What do you think of em dashes in a novel's text? Personally, I find em dashes quite stylistic. It adds variety to the punctuations we already know: periods (.), commas (,), question (?) and exclamation marks (!), colons (:), semicolons (;) and the simple dash (-). A paragraph with multiple...

    A Title Dilemma: Feel or Fact?

Thing is, there is nothing in my story that has anything to do with the actual meaning of...

    Do you put your own stories in your own reading lists? I realized I can do that, and give even it five stars. But I haven't done that cuz I feels weird. And I also found out if you visit your own story page, the system counts it as a view.

    Does this blurb make you want to give my story a chance?

    What do you think of this new blurb? It is written from the MC's 1st person limited POV. The current blurb I'm using is written from 3rd person omniscient, describing the MC and FMC's situation and their environment. What am I doing here? Why am I even alive? I went to bed happy. And suddenly...

    Question: Do I just update my existing book for remaster or publish an entirely new book?

    I am doing a remaster of my story that I'm publishing. I'm added some new scenes and enriched the dialogue, rearranged the sequence of the events, but the core of the story remains the same. When I'm ready, should I create a new book for it? Or just update my existing book?
