Moo Principle #538 - In order to defeat suspected vote tampering, I'm making a last minute plea to all voters to change their vote, or vote for, @Prince_Azmiran_Myrian as the boobiest of the scribblers.
What do you think about a children's fairy tale with dark fantasy undertones as an interlude chapter?
For example, a mother tells her little daughter a bedtime story about a wolf, a rabbit, and a princess rose. This story sounds sweet to her daugher.
But, as a reader, you might interpret this story not as a fairy tale but as a dark reality that the mother or other characters in the story might have experienced.

Every time I see a chalkboard I feel the pavlovian response kicking in.
Tsundere-ism runs in the family. I asked my grandpa to buy milk powder for my ice cream experimentations and he refused last night but this morning he got me two packets of those. Now my ice cream experimentation can begin again!
Didn’t feel like finishing it.
Anybody got a childlike wonder potion? Preferably one in the 8-12 range.
Does the old adventurer guild thing still work?
I forgot to turn off the stove while mom was gone. She is now cursing at my whole bloodline.

This work is like being dropped into the typical xianxia midway. MC all powered up and able to deal with the crap powerful people flung at him.
Hell it is fun seeing all the magics flung.
But at the same time, it is exhausting, therefore I dropped at C50.
My reacts are back! Yay!
I just dropped a chapter of my story and I’m trying to improve my writing 
I’d really love feedback on:
– pacing (does it feel slow or rushed?)
– characters (do they feel real?)
– emotional impact (did anything actually hit?)
Be honest, I can take it
When silence learned to speak

14 out of 17 respondents (currently) agree that character emotions need to be narrated through showing, rather than telling by mentioning raw emotions (sad, anxiety, etc).
Authors can narrate emotions organically (by showing) through body language, psychological reactions (tears, nausea, etc), action, dialogue, and atmosphere in a scene.
The goal is to make the reader experience the emotion with the character.

Time heals all wounds. If you're stilll hurt you haven't waited long enough.
They say time heals all wounds, but that's wrong. Time only heals some wounds. Other wounds get bigger as time goes by, and even more are created by the passage of time.
