Thank you for the suggestions guys. I have more than enough books(and equal excuses not to write!) thanks to you :)
My greetings scribes. I'm looking for some books to occupy my writing time with. I just finished the first 3 A Song of Ice and Fire books and...
The reason most people have a dislike for prologues is not really the info dump. Sure that plays a role in it, but for the most part, a prologue...
Hmm, I believe we'll need a bit more details on how this magic system works. The origins look ok, the source of power(Where the magic comes from...
From my experience, rushing the background information is always a bad idea, especially when it happens in the beginning of a story. First things...
You can always settle on one main idea that you consider to be the best one for your plot and have the others act as subplots. This way, nothing...
Tell you what. Why don't you kill them progressively? This way, the reader will not be left with a bitter taste in his mouth, as that character...
Actually, I only started writing again 2 days ago because I faced a similar issue. With english not being my mother tongue, I was always...

Hmm, this is something that continues to haunt me to this day too. Have I managed to get past it? I don't know. But this thread is about you, so...
I can't really provide a name for your chapter because that's something I struggle with myself, but here's a tip that worked for me. When I...
Hello there. I'll start with your first paragraph and then discuss the second. First of all, I think that you should worry less about...
Yes, that may be it. Been there, done that. To be honest, I've yet to finish a story that uses my current plotting methods, so I'm not even sure...

I appreciate what you are trying to do, though I'm not sure what exactly is it you want to communicate with this post. Are you trying to say that...
It's not possible. People will always establish certain connections, but that's just a first impression. At first glance, it may look like my...
