#Writing question

For those of you unfamiliar: nail guns are a type of power tool that drives a nail (usually through compressed air) directly into wood, thereby eliminating the need for hammering.

Hypothetically if I gave Match a toy of some sort for comfort (most likely a gift from Danny) what should I give him? (If you are confused, talkin about This Story based off of this Prompt by @radiance1 and This Thread)

Writers, I have yet another question for you:

[night-market-if]

Discussion Question

Mostly because I'm curious and want to hear some thoughts...

At this point, who or what do you think is the biggest threat to the Night Market?

[sentfromwolves]

hey writeblr I'm curious: what do you think is the most distinctive trait of your main character/s that your readers will pickup on?

[deadghostgirl12345]

It’s like 2am, and I’m trying to fall asleep, but I can’t cause I’m thinking about plot and world building, or whatever.

Like I need to know this info, but I don’t need to cause like it also causes no pressing issues at the moment and like I don’t know if this would even be in the book(s) but like…….. what is the answer? Please help me!!!

Does anyone have suggestions when you can’t write the viewpoint of a specific character? What do you do to get to know your characters better, to figure them out?

Writing Question #2

In a horror story revolving around a twisted romance/love, how would you use or apply different story-writing techniques to create different effects in your story? (Symbolism, foreshadowing, repetition, imagery, voice, etc.)

Why does reading help us become better fiction writers?

It's common information at this point: reading more often helps us become better writers. This is information that I, and others, have discussed plenty.

The real question I have is, why is it that reading helps us become better fiction writers? Is it because we get to pick up the little idiosyncrasies of our favourite authors? Is it because we're constantly exposed to the proper formatting of how a novel should be? Is it because it helps us understand how good stories are structured?

If it happens to be the third option, does this mean any sort of story can provide us with a better idea of how good stories are structured?

We can find stories everywhere. It's found in movies, theatre, TV shows, and video games. Even music! From the storytelling in a song like "Girls Like Girls" by Hayley Kiyoko, to the associated music video, it demonstrates a story. That's only the first example that came to my mind.

if all of them are structured in similar ways, does this mean that as fiction writers, we can become better by absorbing all sorts of media? 'Cause I might start living like that's true, and have less guilt in the hours I've put into certain lore-driven video games.

In conclusion, maybe it's not the books that make us better fiction writers. Maybe it's the stories that we see in nearly every media we consume. ♥

Hello lovelies! I've hit a slight wall in my fic, so I need the help of you sweethearts to progress :D Unfortunately I won't be giving you much context ahaha, but please choose an option for IHFF chapter 22/3 (haven't decided quite yet where this'll go):

Does anyone have any good writing programs where i can share my work? that's not Wattpad (ew) Ao3 (I feel adding an original work is more or less not allowed?? (Idk how ao3 is about truly original stuff.)

I usefully use google docs but their stances on Ai make me super uncomfortable)

Tldr: Is it Good to post my story on Ao3 or better yet is their a good writing website like ao3 for original stuff that i dont know about?

[puppetmaster13u]

How do you write Clark/Superman I am struggling so much.

(Yes this is for my cryptid batfam story and his first encounter/meeting of the bats/waynes)

(EDIT) Like, how do you write from his point of view. I'm good at writing uncanny valley stuff

[seaglasswrites]

Writers,

[sentfromwolves]

hey Writeblr, what’s the most hilarious/unexpected revelation you’ve ever had about a character?

[viktor-ravencrest]

Okay second question. If someone were to plunge their hand and arm into a fire for only a second, would they get third degree burns?
