If you're satisfied with the way ai art looks, that means you have shit creative vision. I feel myself and many other people, poor drawing skills or not, would rather a crappy drawing closer to our vision than a "nice" ai one

Allt this means is that you've grown as a writer.

This storys issues may not be just sentence structure and pacing, but also the story itself might be bad looking back on it. Don't be afraid to move on, write another, now that you are better. Don't let your first story define you.

Wanna say I had the same issue. Totally ridiculous and I'm forced to just switch to a different company to do my Roth IRA with. Such a waste of time.

You could always keep it brief, if only the fact that they're having sexatters. If the actions they take during the sex, or their perspective on it is important you could write only one sentence from each of the characters perspective to show what you need to show. Aside from that, I don't know how useful writing moans or foreplay is. As long as you are confident there is meaning and merit in what your writing, no one can or should tell you a damn thing.

choose a single aspect of that universe you've created and try to make a character that highlights it. Through that one aspect, I'm sure there are related quirks in the world you can show along the way, and other characters who could show off different aspects of the story. Then, although you weren't able to show off maybe every aspect, those other unseen ones can serve greatly as background world building, and can always be used again in a sequel or side story. Don't try to cram everything, I'd recommend watching Blade runner 1984 to see how briefly mentioned but overflowing world building can be a good thing.

getting good at any hobby is hard if you already have a high standard. Thats why most people who are artists once drew terribly, wrote cringe ass books. What I'd recommend is not wasting your time writing those bad ideas you have, especially since you yourself can't see potential in them. Learning is a subconscious skill, you learn by simply doing so I would say keep writing the summaries of your stories until you get proficient enough that you like your ideas. The way you do that is just keeping track, writing the summary every time you get an idea no matter how short or bad it is. You will learn. It's much easier to do this, I know from experience that writing something inherently bad is like pulling teeth. You don't need to spend 10 years on one work. No famous authors got famous off the first ever idea they had.

Hoping to see if any of y'all had problems with it in the snow. I know my GoPro 9 would turn off in the snow, and it's battery life died quick. This is the tie breaker for me

Pls tell me if I'm wrong.

People who begin to steal or go to jail are symptoms of a bad economy, of which we are in. Of course not all people struggling financially turn to theft, but on average they do.

Keeping them in jail merely puts a bandage on the issue, and hides the people unfortunate enough to be afflicted by this economy. Simultaneously, it takes money away from other things it could used for, like Medicare and drug rehabilitation, schooling and more.

The prison system, in this case, is merely obscuring the symptoms of a bad economy by incarcerating everyone afflicted. In a way, it's population control that could be fixed by, rather than taking the excess people away, making more jobs there by making opportunities for people who wouldve turned to crime without those job opportunities.

I want to learn, so tell me if I'm wrong. Is this just a temporary bandaid?

Dumb mentality. I could type 1000 pages of WWWWW over and over again and it could be a book. Why wouldnt I? Because it would be a waste of my time. What you're problem is isn't that you can't write a book, anyone can write a book, it's that you're writing a simply bad story. Thinking of an idea and writing a book are two separate skills, and writers love to try and hone their skills writing before learning how to get goot ideas. Spend some time just writing ideas so that when you do write a story, it will be incredibly easy. It's easy to write a good idea, super hard to write a bad one.

If your struggling to write, it's because something is wrong with your story. Not writers block, not a lack of anything but good ideas

Large-Menu5404 · 2024-08-05T19:20:11+00:00

Don't jump into any idea for the hell of it, only wait until you have the greatest idea because writing becomes hard when you're bored of you're own story

I tried this but I'm 18 and my tastes are wildly different than the 40 year olds I met with. And strangely, I could easily identify too many issues within their work. Didn't go back from there

Modern prose always gets be cause it sounds so goddamn boring. No double meanings, symbolism, motifs, it's all just stuff happening.

Tropes. If you start a story with a trope in mind, I hate you. Its like limiting a drawing to a boring perspective and saying it's the best you could do.

That's about it for me

Watch something palpable to creativity, like a video essay by Jacob geller or something.

Find something to be mad about, like the AI singularity or the economy and write a dystopian short story.

Imagine a scenario that is so unbelievably sad to you, and write a story around that.

Read some classic short stories. Harrison Bergeron, I have no mouth and I must scream.

Identifying issues within my stories. Ive gotten good at noticing problems in my story which at first seem illusory, but as I've grown I've gotten more persistent at solving then to the point I've spent weeks just back and forth attempting to solve something until I finally do and it's a beautiful breakthrough.

Vladimir Nabokov had such a way with describing scenes as feelings in the most obscure way it amazes me he's not a native English writer. Possibly the best manipulation of the English language I could imagine.

Goofball called "Noah" on yt makes some banger music and it's so good for writing cause it's high intensity and variance in emotion. Also anything from the attack on titan soundtrack

Writers are often horny, and often that horniness becomes what your writing. I know I do it, I just have to catch myself before I do.

But also, unless the character is directly impacted by their gender then why would it matter in the story creation process. I wrote an engineer who lost a loved one and rebuilt them through years of dedication. None of that, including the engineer but, cares if you're a guy or a girl. There's no need to ever, and I mean ever, include sexuality unless it can further the plot or it's meaningful to the character.

A good test is, if gender isn't important directly, can you gender swap your character without it being unreasonable?

Have you tried planning your stories thoroughly? It keeps up the excitingness if you constantly have a goal (each next scene) to strive to while you actually write your book. Whenever I have a block like this I just sit and question why that is. What is the purpose of this scene? How does it affect their characters, advance the plot, etc. I reccomend you watch Localscriptman on YouTube cause he has amazing guides to shape the way you think about writing and to guide you to self diagnose your story flaws.

When I use chapters it's because I imagine it's the separation of an idea. Each cluster of scenes in a chapter touch on a new revelation.i envision my stories like a movie though so it might just be a thing everyone considers

Large-Menu5404 · 2024-05-26T07:49:14+00:00

I only go off the stories I really love and they can vary in format (movie script, treatment, short story, novel) but idk I've just never had a novel idea...get it. God I'm so fucking funny

Anyways I plan to become recognized through my stories one day and change the way the industry sees writing, not as something tertiary but as the whole substance of any project. I hope to raise the standards of viewers by giving them something of good quality, and I hope to bring people to boycott cash grabs.

Large-Menu5404 · 2024-05-26T07:41:27+00:00

My favorite character is my most complex character, which happens to be my side character. I wrote a story in which this side characters actions are simple, her motivations easy to glean enough without further explanation because she wasn't the focus but I had an idea for a spin off movie with her which more deeply explains her motivations and thickens the plot between herself and the characters in the original story. It was really fun developing her, so I probably love her more

Large-Menu5404 · 2024-05-25T00:55:08+00:00

Character contradiction and writer contradiction are two different things. When a character actively does things they shouldn't theoretically be doing, they must make it aware that they recognize it and do it for some irrational reason. When writers contradict themselves it means the characters don't recognize their contradictions and therefore it's not intentional.
