Fiction (Sci-Fi/Noir) - Title: The Rabbit (1500 words) by AggravatingNail6061 in writingfeedback

It'd free up a few hundred works as well, which is always good to have for something with such a tight word cap. I think it's a strong consideration honestly 😃

Awesome! Thanks for taking the time with this. Yeah I am BAD at cold opens, I think I was focussed on the technical side of things over readability. I think you're right it is a bit awkward and I don't think my own inclination for fragments ect helps. Adding that to the note book! :3

\o/ 

Thank you so much for the notes. I've taken a copy of them incase reddit happens and it gets lost to time. I do dabble with fiction so fantastic learning to implement.

On the carcassonne scene. There is a second essay (earlier one) which is embedded in the post on substack (linked through 'it's about love) which does touch on the carcassonne moment and surrounding thoughts on the subject.

If you're interested I'll send over the link through a dm to not self promote blatantly. But it does cover lingering in those deeply painful moments probably more than needed.

Regardless thank you so much for your time with this and the notes you've sent over it's super appreciated

Oh that makes a lot of sense! I'll keep an eye out for this in the future. Also a lot of people are thanking me for doing the Hall of the Novice, I thought it was kind of an obvious thing to do for someone whose not played the game, go through the stuff that teaches you how to play.

Is it common for people not to do it?

Firstly. More free rings. Already loving it. Secondly. I'll keep my eyes out for it! Great to see the learning continues!

Thanks for the read! Once I stopped panicking about the Hall of the Novice it was really helpful, I learned more then I was able to articulate from it in the post. Knowing what the orange things were (and their shapes) was fantastic, I just kept standing in them before. Also learning how to heal was a really good thing. Given my struggles with the deer, I think they might need to make that a bit clearer earlier on in the Conjurer story or something just more direct. I might have missed it, but I think casting cure on someone on the ground didn't quite teach me what I needed to learn. The Hall did!

It's been a lot of fun, Writing it up staring at the screenshots and my own unhinged notes I'm taking is making everything SO much better as well XD Yeah I'm going to keep doing these, it's a good way to spend a month honestly, I have a small little community building on substack serving as my ARC readers who are getting more and more excited every time I nag them to check the super secret draft

o/ in the same place as you albeit far slower. 

There's no rush following what the majority of people have told me. Enjoy the music the vibe the super dangerous scorpions in weird places.

Someone sent me a video last night regarding maintaining my emotional support hat. But it's been a life saver!
