What’s one piece of writing advice that’s always stuck with you? Or you think it’s important? I’ll go first. 
          	
          	-show don’t tell
          	
          	-the beginning is the most important part of your story, because it’s what brings people to keep reading to the middle and end.

  What I'm doing in my first draft isn't important, it doesn't matter. Nobody is going to see your rough draft. No one cares about your rough draft.

@FrostedSketches indeed it is probably better when the character drives the story and not the plot driving it! (while the character sort of just deals with it and reacts ya know.) I believe in what you are saying <3 and your characterization skills r amazing btw

hey, just wondering if i should continue with the r4r while i’ve got no more chapters out?  also, when i publish book 2 in a month or so, would you keep reading onto there as well? your book has a lot of chapters lmao and my first one doesn’t- although book 2 might have more, not really sure yet lmao

@shxtteredstxrs nah tbh I’d just wait till you get more chapters out 
            
            N yep makes sense to me I’ll keep reading into Book 2

@ShadowFireFox3456 I like hiking and being outside with my dogs it sounds weird but finding cool things in nature like a giant hollowed out tree or a weirdly shaped colorful rock or something lmfao i used to collect crystals from where I used to live in the south as a kid, I do digital art but mostly of just animals, write novels- I hope to get back to original novels soon but rn I’m writing Fanfic, and always tryna write more poems but I feel it’s hard to find inspiration for them. I really enjoy listening to audiobooks while I’m at work or cleaning, and reading comics/webtoons or making designs such as book covers as well!

@Spiritsx Ahhh responsibilities ofc. The bane of my living. Anyway, yes I write but my mind is blank and I can’t think of any ideas so for now, no. Yes I make a bit of art
            What are your hobbies?
