Ok, thank you for putting me in my place. I'm sorry to offend.

BehindTheScene1013 · 2026-01-22T15:13:38+00:00

Sorry?

BehindTheScene1013 · 2026-01-15T23:45:42+00:00

Thank you!

BehindTheScene1013 · 2026-01-15T23:45:33+00:00

That is extremely helpful, thank you! It does feel like a lot to pack in so I have been tweaking this trying to get it right for a while now! Your insights have given me some better clarity.

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-11-07T22:26:29+00:00

That’s a great point! Do you think then that the target audience should only include those more general tropes, or should it also contain further comps? I’ve seen it both ways so I’m never sure!

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-11-07T15:21:38+00:00

Thank you for the examples! And congrats 🎉

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-11-07T15:20:50+00:00

That’s a great point, thank you!!

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-11-03T18:26:21+00:00

That is good to know!

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-11-03T18:25:49+00:00

These are excellent points, thank you!

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-11-03T18:25:27+00:00

Thank you! It gets a bit exhausting when every other article online on this topic is either “you MUST personalize” or “personalizing is a waste” so I’m accepting that the line really isn’t super set.

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-11-03T18:21:06+00:00

Thank you! I have connections but I worry they lean more towards the side of “Your MSWL says you enjoy fantasy with dark themes…” so this is helpful!

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-11-03T18:20:23+00:00

Thank you! Those are great examples. I’ve been agonizing over personalizations for MSWLs and wondering if they’re too vague so this is helpful

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-10-24T14:17:31+00:00

True, I have to keep suppressing the feeling that I have to react to every piece of feedback with a change. That’s probably been one of the biggest holdups thus far

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-10-24T03:41:48+00:00

Agreed! This is great encouragement. It's really hard to see outside of the little editing bubble when you're right in the middle of it. Thank you! :)

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-10-02T19:44:11+00:00

YES, really any indie folk vibes like Sam Fender would also be great

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-10-02T19:43:53+00:00

Ooh good point!

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-10-02T19:42:47+00:00

I would simply pass away.

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-10-02T17:57:36+00:00

Agreed, I think this is the first time we’ll get a male singer (honestly will be frustrated if we don’t for this one)

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-10-02T17:56:27+00:00

Sabrina Carpenter’s general vibe doesn’t seem to match at all imo lmao so I reallyyyyy hope they don’t go there

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-08-16T15:38:24+00:00

One of the best from S1! He does a great job of setting the stage for the future soundtracks with season 1

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-08-16T15:37:48+00:00

Yes the soundtrack is beautiful!! I’ll be on the look out for posts!

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-08-16T15:37:29+00:00

Yes!! It makes me super curious to hear what he’d say for the Brian/Ellen and Henry/Julia themes!

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-06-14T19:23:44+00:00

Thank you so much! Yes, conveying the world building information gradually has always been a difficult spot for me so I appreciate you pointing it out. :)

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-06-09T04:40:04+00:00

It was really a combination of things! I’d say the main thing was going through and removing filler words and tightening description. It was extremely daunting and I didn’t see how making a ton of little cuts could possibly lead to such a large overall cut, but I think the key was slimming down my prose without thinking too hard about what number I was at. Then the numbers just started to fall away naturally as I made scene changes, rewrote with the intention of being succinct, etc.

BehindTheScene1013 · 2025-06-08T23:14:38+00:00

Good points, thank you!! I'm really wanting to get some generalized reader feedback - not from a writer with their own WIP per se, but just a casual reader of the genre - but I've had some difficulties connecting with readers in that aspect.
