I think it would be good and helpful to make a thread about writing tips :D


I'll go first:


I find that when you're editing your story, it's good to break down every sentence by saying them outloud and fixing what sounds wrong (or doesn't fit).

Nine times out of ten, you'll correct yourself automatically!


Naturally this only works with English, but even if you have a general knowledge of the language, it should come naturally!


Also, if you're having trouble don't be afraid to ask another for help, sometimes you will need the eyes of another to be brutal so your fans won't!

Hmm, let's see.

Once in a while, read the story from the start to where you are, you might remember of a new/better way to express what you want to transmit to the reader, or even add more details.

Re-read the previous chapter to make sure it connects to the one you're currently writting.

Not much, since everyone's advices are already good hints...but this might help too.
