>>53708065I was just working on it two seconds ago. It’s making progress, though I’m not sure where I should end chapter one. There doesn’t seem to be a good stopping point in sight, so it could turn out to be a lengthy introduction to the fic. I’ve got a lot planned so here’s hoping I’ll be able to make it to the ending.
>>53708549For the new writers section, I think we can have something like,
>We recommend reading some published stories or even fics from our main archive to get an idea of formatting and the type of prose you want to write with. Take notes of what you like and what you don’t to form your own style.>Try reading your sentences and dialogue out loud, this will tell you if anything sounds unnatural.>If you’re short on ideas, start with imagining a scene you want to see played out with a chuuba and building your story around it. How do you get your characters to that scene? What happens after it?>The best way to improve is to just start writing and receive some feedback. Don’t be afraid to throw your hat in the ring, we all had to start somewhere. Who knows, you might be better than you think, and good enough to take a shot at the title of champion.Anything I’ve missed? I think that covers most of the bases.
