It could be a DIY punishment. AS in people may decide to become their own law enforcement. There are usually authorities, even if not offical...
Apart from the obvious stuff like bad writing and an author who knows nothing about what they are writing about whether it be cultural or wrong...
I'd never read a Fantasy book before, accept for maybe a few children's ones when I'd been very little. I read historical and crime and that was...
Well, I think it really depends. You may not be doing anything illegal but the fans of those books may not like it. Best to come up with your own...
Jekyll and Hyde
My worst one was Beauty and the Beast (which was sad because I loved it as a kid and still do). I think the main focus needs to be on what they...
I watched them years ago and they were helpful but I found them to only touch the surface of topics like plot and character creating, world...

I actually world build after I've written my book because then I know exactly how and what I need to know. It prevents me getting bogged down and...
I had the same concern in that my original idea featured people that used magic. I then realised that, not only did I not need the magic but that...
Maybe the ghost could be contained for eternity instead. Or there is a weapon that can kill a ghost. Or someone that is a "ghost slayer".
I just like the idea of focusing on the power of a belief rather than the belief itself being real. Maybe when the king realises she's a fraud she...
There was one thing I thought of last night that I wanted to ask your options on if you get time? I thought, what if she doesn't have the power,...
I will use limitations, just not the cliche ones that have been used with this ability before if i can avoid it.
