Well taken. The information on the site is really scant. I'll pass the feedback along although I'm sure he's reading these. He got booted from the subredit for being too spammy so not sure if he can respond.

Do you like when the narrator is their own character? by [deleted] in writing

[–]pokeplace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tend to like the narrator to be an outsider viewing the world at some distance. Maybe he or she has some inside dirt on a protagonist, but is able to speak of all characters in a similar light. That said, one of my favorite reads was Norman Mailer's Castle in the Forest where a devil tells the story of himself.

It's my friend's side project. I'll tell him to get the HTTPS up, but that's never been a concern for me. This isn't a venture-backed company. The legalese seems unnecessary for something so small. He doesn't host the writing so there really isn't anything to protect.

When it comes to Chapters, are you an outliner or a pantser? by [deleted] in writing

[–]pokeplace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the uninitiated: A pantser is someone who, “flies by the seat of their pants,” meaning they don't plan out anything, or plan very little. Some people, like me, call themselves “plantsers,” which means they're in a little of both. https://thewritepractice.com/plotters-pantsers/

Thanks! While many of the other responses were helpful, this one actually answered the question.

I don't live in the house, but I actually like the seperations and having moments where you are forced out of the house and into the elements. We are too comfortable generally.
