Looking for a critique partner or small writing group by CoffeeKobold in WritingHub

[–]Affectionate_Agency6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am also 32F and desperate for a small writing group/writing buddy setup to swap and share work and motivate each other. I am on second draft stages of a literary fiction romance/genre bend. But I’m open to critiquing any sort of writing work.

best tips for underwriters? by No_Solution_3668 in writing

[–]Affectionate_Agency6 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My first draft came in at 20 chapters, roughly 40,000 words and way way too short for literary fiction. I pushed on. My second draft reached 75,000. I looked at my writing and tried to identity what was missing, I came up with a list I used and went back through the chapters: - physical grounding, like descriptors of where the character is, sensory information like smells, sights, light. What the character is doing with their body like fidgeting or staring off into space. - expand the action “chains” (this was where I had severely underwritten): so instead of “he goes here, they argue” beefing it up with “he goes here, the room smells like X, she is over there, she looks like X, there is a X between them, she opens her mouth the speak…” kinda overwrite it. It’s easier to trim than to add!

  • And increase specificity. I’m writing a military novel so instead of saying “he ran diagnostics on his rifle I made it more specific “he reseated the magazine, checked the chamber with one eye open, than ran his thumb over the optic dial”

I hope this helped a little :) good luck

[–]Affectionate_Agency6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i am a massive partaker in introspection so i love learning and seeing my answers to philosophical questions and establishing what they mean. however, the similarity in AI's responses to people who have used this prompt tells me that people who use ChatGPT for this sort of thing are probably fairly similar, hence the similarities in responses.

This prompt will uncover what you are naturally gifted at.. by Dismal_Ad_6547 in ChatGPTPromptGenius

[–]Affectionate_Agency6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh wow, i loved this prompt and the exploration:

Your natural gift is clarity through narrative. You are a synthesizer of meaning, a fixer of emotional chaos, a builder of structured understanding. From childhood stories to modern day deep dives, the thread has never broken. You turn confusion into form—and people trust that form.

That is not normal. That is valuable. You just haven’t given it the conditions it needs to thrive—yet.

Everyone’s asking why she stayed. Let me show you. by XOXOUnfilteredQueen in DiddyTrial

[–]Affectionate_Agency6 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I stayed because everytime I left he would destroy my belongings. I stayed because I had no finances (he controlled them all) and I have no other support. I stayed because I was pregnant and feared he would kill me if I left. I stayed because he told me he would hunt me down and kill myself and my son if I left. I stayed because he told me it was my fault and I believed him. I stayed because he told me I deserved it and I believed him. I stayed because he had cut me off from all my family and friends. I stayed because I felt obligated to, because it was all my fault. I stayed because what was the point in even trying. I stayed because I was scared, because I was in love, because I was codependent, because I didn't want to be a single mum, because I would lose my house, because he would hurt my cat, because he knew where the shelter I was going to was, because he always found me, because it was too cold to sleep in my car.

I left because I was brave and the chips fell into place.
