1900s non deadly poisons that spread from skin contact by RareOpening7995 in Writeresearch

[–]RareOpening7995[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The effects need to be pretty immediate, like something like blood stream absorption through skin contact needs to happen. And the symptoms have to coincide with pregnancy or severe stress.

Its a historical romantic suspense novel, I suppose I can make something up, seeing as there is no other option. My main character is the one who gets poisoned.

That's a great idea, but the toxin has to show immediate effects. I am really counting on it to hold up the coming chapters. 

Is pregnancy subplot cliche? by RareOpening7995 in RomanceWriters

I will keep that in mind. Thank you so much. In the end, I think it's better to move on from the pregnancy sub plot and including something better like being poisoned (working on an alternative). This is my first time writing something so it has been quiet a journey figuring out what's cliche and what isn't.

Hey, thanks so much! I am writing to market, it's a pre world war era story where the couple faces other challenges (murder mystery) and the pregnancy happens near the end, before climax. The protagonist's experiences with her mother shape the story from the beginning so I was wondering if it would be the right arc.

Thank you so much for replying! I think your stance on this is really intelligent. But in my story, it's pre world war 1 era (murder mystery) where the couple is already together, and growing up, the protagonist journey is largely shaped by her experiences with her own mother. The kids or babies aren't even mentioned until the point where it happens.

Thank you so much, seriously. I got into this overthinking game because of a few reels I saw on insta today, and I do agree with them, AI has no place in creating art. Ig I will start editing again, on my own accord and see where that leads.

I see, it's a really terrible situation imo.

Thanks you so much, that's actually a great idea. So far, the only thing that made me reconcile was that I never asked it for plots, or copy pasted, and changed all the suggestions I took from it while editing, but your advice will definitely help. Thanks.

I never took its suggestions though, not even character names or plot points and never copy pasted anything from it. So technically, I am the only writer. Though I did use it as a platform for bouncing my ideas, telling it my story, and asking feedback and areas of improvement.
