I've found that my stories always end up feeling, at least to me, like they aren't going anywhere, or they're going crazy fast. What are some of the best practices you guys have found to write good pacing into your stories?
Hello everyone!
I have been toying around with the idea of making an interactive fantasy story but finding software has been difficult. Maybe I am not looking hard enough but so far the only software I have found is twine specifically.

Hello!
I recently finished a fantasy short story, and I would like to get some feedback on it, but the problem is I don't know how I should get them. I already posted my work on Reddit, a discord group, without any feedback. I am not a native English speaker and don't live in an...

As much as I wanted to create my own languages, I realised when having a chat with users, it wasn't going to be easy. I have tried...
Hey! In my current novel, it does have a magic system, although I'm having some trouble making it seem real. Any tips or basic guidelines to make it seem as if it's part of the world?
