Bleh fanfic! :blob_pout:
I am continuously shocked you don't adore Vampire!AU at the very least. Lol.

Concise prose is good. Often snappy. To the point. But if you don't vary with a longer sentence every so often, the reader doesn't get a breath. Or variety.

(Or a scrumptious bit of flowery prose as a delectable bite.)

Though seriously, what you're writing does correlate to how you should write. Fast, action moments benefit from snappy, quick prose. Slow, breathing moments like longer sentences. You can entirely change the mood of a scene. Just. Like. That.

I see where you're coming and I agree with some of them, it's true The reader needs to use their imagination to fill in many details but

1.There are numerous writing styles, each with its own unique characteristics and purposes. Descriptive writing style is Focuses on creating vivid imagery and sensory details to immerse the reader in the story. One of my fav author that use this writing style is Cuttlefish (LOTM)

2. Also In genres like horror or mystery, detailed descriptions play a crucial role in setting the mood and atmosphere, immersing readers in the world of the story.
Sir/ma’am I think you have missed the point.

Yeah, my bad. I thought you're talking about those Manhua novel translations, but after I saw your works, you're talking about those over-explaining.

edit: I thought if you deleted the original comment, no one would be able to read it. AHHH SO EMBARRASING!!!
