It really depends on your goals with the story and how you would like to present it. First person allows for the audience to immerse themselves in one character more. It's often used for stories very heavily focused on emotions or one perspective. Third person is a bit more versatile. You can...

Super deep voice: “I desire the wet food tonight, Mother.”

How does the lighting make it even scarier 😭

I actually recommend often using said over any alternatives, unless it's expressing an emotion or action important to the scene. I use said as a dialogue tag like 70% of the time if I'm adding them. "Said" is an invisible word. Many of your readers skim over the tag anyways. Using something...

From 'Elements of Style, Fourth Edition': “ Dialogue is a total loss unless you indicate who the speaker is. In long dialogue passages containing no attributives, the reader may become lost and be compelled to go back and reread in order to puzzle the thing out. Obscurity is an imposition on...

Usually, I try to set the format of the story up in a way that it's obvious who's speaking without. When I do that, I forego tags entirely and set the mood of the dialogue through prior scene description and character action. In the instance that there are multiple characters and it would be...

that's' how it goes! You'll get more as time goes

Mine got a decent amount of attention when I was releasing at least once a day. I tried to do 2 on Sundays, it seemed to peak then

The lights flickered, chilling my blood as I saw what lay upon my table. It was a job application.

I disappear into the ether until the mood strikes me

it’s ok! You’re not being annoying. For beta readers, you’re more likely to find general impressions and advice from people on writing discords. I will say - there will be criticism. There always is. Be prepared to understand that it isn’t an attack on your story or youpeople will point out...

Make a new one. There will probably be readers that preferred the old version, and it would be a massive disappointment for them if a work was deleted for something they don't like as much.

I recommend avoiding AI llm stuff. As a personal thing, I believe it sands down the personality of the writer. Try for beta readers instead, read some books in a style similar to what you wanna write and try to emulate it. Eventually, you'll find stuff that sticks with you as YOUR writing style...

I have a mechanical keyboard but I’ve been finding myself using the MacBook way more
