Whats a manuscript?

[Tricky786]

Yo, just like the title says, what's a manuscript? Ik that it's like a rough idea of the story or smth, but I wanna know what it really is and is there any specific way/requirement to write it.

Dude type it into the dictionary.

a book, document, or piece of music written by hand rather than typed or printed.
an author's handwritten or typed text that has not yet been published.
the original copy of a book or article before it is printed.

The modern definition can be a bit vague, originally it referred only to handwritten text but most people include typed text as well. In writing, it specifically refers to the original book written by the author, especially important to distinguish it from printed copies.

The original scripture said to contain the secret to many things. It could be the countless knowledge said to come from the wisdom that adam and eve had eaten, containing the secrets to the life of the universe itself. Some said to contain a martial art from the east, once learned, would attain immortality and ascend to the heavens. Some even said to harness the endless universe to create the ultimate cookie, praised by the outer gods themselves.

It is wise to not learn the secrets as people had once been tempted to learn its secrets yet no one ever survive to tell the tale....








Jk. Just like the other guy said, its basically just the original notes that artist made before they copied or edit them. Basically just like notes authors made before they handed them to the editors to edit and improve the quality of the work.
