People said that I should use tree sap instead of tar and feathers.
Even though it was a fictional comedy, and I was like 8.
I’m still salty.

@calidris I don’t think so. Was it bad or good?

Linyang Zhang replied to the topic Reading in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 2 months ago
@elfwing I mean, I used to read bad books too lol. And then I started writing, and I didn’t read anything but manga and classics, so when I finally went around to reading other stuff again, I was more like, “what is this thing I’m reading.” I guess writing has trained me to look for mistakes more, and also one of my sister’s hobbies is roasting…[Read more]

Linyang Zhang replied to the topic Reading in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 2 months ago
@elfwing Oh, for me, I’m the opposite. Problems always stick out to me, but usually I stay quiet about them because I feel like they aren’t something that the writer can change easily (like style, the overall plot, etc.) If it’s typos I will though.

@madelyn I enjoy it when I’m not crying, heh. Which I think can be said about anything.

@maryg3 Microsoft forms works too if you would like.

Linyang Zhang replied to the topic 1st Chapter Critique for The Inventor’s Daughter in the forum Novel Critique Requests 3 years, 2 months ago
@maryg3 Just search up “google forms” and you should be able to do that. And no, I don’t have any other ideas as of now, sorry.

@kathleenramm Probably someone said that the ending to one of my novellas was contrived. Lol. Maybe it was, since I was making it up as I went along. The person had reviewed one of my short stories favorablely, though, so probably I just need to work more on editing.

@maryg3 Hey, awesome! I’d love to read it, but unfortunately I don’t like putting my email out in public places. Could you perhaps make a Google form or something for us to input our emails into? That’s what I would do, anyways.

Linyang Zhang replied to the topic Add new ideas in now or later? in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 2 months ago
1. To be honest whenever I come up with new ideas I just add them halfway through and then later go back and add them in the beginning. Saves a bit of time.
2. Totally! Usually my chapters are 6 and a half pages, sometimes they’re 13.

@sparrowhawke Yee a lot of classics use first person peripheral, actually! For another work I was debating between first and third and finally settled on first person peripheral. Pretty happy I did.

Linyang Zhang replied to the topic Salvete scriptores! in the forum Start HERE 3 years, 2 months ago
@sparrowhawke Greetings! I remember Blimey Cow vaguely from years past, but since a while ago I have not watched them. Twenty One Pilots I do love, as well as The Emporer’s New Groove.
Your name sounds familiar; are you on Story Embers as well?

Linyang Zhang replied to the topic Tense Choices in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 years, 2 months ago
@sparrowhawke I am a big believer and an astute follower of third person past. First person only occasionally, and always in past tense. Sometimes second. Been trying out peripheral first lately. But yeah, no, I don’t like first person present.

@madelyn Hey there! Nice to meet you!
I think a good book is something that makes me feel something (no, not cringe or anger or absolute regret or anything like that) but one that makes you think about it long after you close the pages.
Full-time career? Well, I’m currently studying computer science, so…
