Writing advice from my uni teachers:

If your dialog feels flat, rewrite the scene pretending the characters cannot at any cost say exactly what they mean. No one says “I’m mad” but they can say it in 100 other ways.

Wrote a chapter but you dislike it? Rewrite it again from memory. That way you’re only remembering the main parts and can fill in extra details. My teacher who was a playwright literally writes every single script twice because of this.

Don’t overuse metaphors, or they lose their potency. Limit yourself.

Before you write your novel, write a page of anything from your characters POV so you can get their voice right. Do this for every main character introduced.

i think too many people overthink phoenix wright's character change in aa4. he's been through shit. he lost his job because of something out of his control. hes never been a "beacon of light" (to anybody but edgeworth), he's ALWAYS BEEN asshole-ish, and snarky, and stingy as all hell. and he's even MORE strapped for cash while trying to raise his adopted daughter, and quite frankly, if i had to spend 7 years with kristoph fucking gavin, i wouldnt come out the same either. hes still phoenix wright. hes just developed a few mental illnesses and gone through a divorce, theres nothing strange or ooc about that. oh and he definitely deals drugs now

at the end of the day my stance on miles edgeworth is yes he is a little kitten who got left all alone in a wet cardboard box hissing and scratching at anyone who tries to offer him any warmth. and he could be fixed with a loving home. it's all true. but this all needs to be balanced out with the understanding that even at his most mentally well and rehabilitated he will still be a man who has the temperament of a forum moderator and the social skills of someone who did not receive an autism diagnosis during their formative years. and you have to love him for that too.

not that either is a good thing but there is a small cosmic sort of irony to appreciate in the way that the russian invasion of ukraine and the most recent nakba happened so close together and how they through comparison made it undeniably clear how much the definition of war crime and genocide and atrocity &etc depends on the geopolitical interests of the imperial core
