Pretentious much?

...I'm having a bit of trouble with what I think are fanfictions that move a bit too quickly; while I feel that one shouldn't write, say, mundane events and the like I find that some fanfictions try a bit too hard to make every single event serious, lifechanging, and impactful. While there's nothin...

Oddball wrote:You know, there's a very simple solution for the issuer with the cost. Instead of saying that it was a very large amount of money actually say "it was a very large amount of money."

Keep it vague. Don't say "it was this much." Say "it was a lot."

Get what I'm saying here?

Genius!

You know, if you asked me who had a better chance of tearing that Predator a new one - Kenji of Jigoro - my bets would be on Jigoro every day. In his youth, I would agree, but this Jigoro is pushing 60 (this is ~12-15 years or more post Yamaku), and already has scars earned in numerous fights over ...

Tuition can't be too high either, since Hanako is able to afford it. I've seen two justifications for Hanako being able to afford it despite high tuition, in fanfic. The spoilers potentially spoil multiple fanfics (and I'm a bit fuzzy on which ones they spoil), so it's probably best not to mouse ov...

“Enough getting sidetracked,” I said to myself. It is my personal belief that talking to yourself in writing looks silly. I think the best way to deal with internal dialogue is leaving it as a thought in italic form. [Ex. Enough getting sidetracked I dictate to myself. As someone who often uses tha...

Is the forum not enough for you anymore? I believe he's simply referring to the sense of shame involved with telling people outside the community that you're a fan of such a deplorable form of entertainment as Visual Novels, and or the related fan fiction. Deplorable? Well, i didn't have much of a ...

Speaking of productivity, this fic is about as long as the first 3 Harry Potter books + half of the fourth. (!) It occurred to me some time ago that if I did a little finagling and combined the first two acts, each act would be about the length of an average modern novel (100k+ words). In fact, I h...

wow, I just read the bit where Aiko describes Kenta. I am exactly like Kenta except not japanese, younger, and I don't have a disability. If it's only the introduction, you might want to wait until a little more depth is added to the description before proclaiming your similarities. oh no, I've rea...

There's something I've considered saying for a while now, ever since Doomish started taking down his stories, and pulled away from the community a while back. It isn't an accusation, or an attempt at salvaging what was there, or even a desperate attempt to show him it's worth leaving them up. None o...

“Sorry,” I called over my shoulder, more from nerves than anything, “but, I gotta take this...” Best. Line. Ever. In this chapter. (I try to avoid exaggeration whenever possible.) The first time I read that line, I imagined the Hunter clearing its throat, waving its hand and grumbling, "Very well.....

November 22nd 9:17 am – Yet another night in which I was barely able to sleep. Must not let the mouse know this has affected me. I will deny it the opportunity to spy on me and make for the town. I only point this out because the context tells me you used the wrong word. If this ordeal is emotional...
