I wanted to ask for some advice about a problem I have with a short story. Right now, I mostly do short stories, but this has been a big problem for me with novels as well.

So, here’s the problem: I’ll usually start a story with a clear idea of the direction it’s taking, the feeling I want the story to have. I’ll follow that…[Read more]

God bless!

As you can see by the title, I’m trying to start a Portfolio/Blog. I’m using Wix to host it. Does anyone have any tips or advice on making an engaging website, and what it should/shouldn’t include?

So I’ll share mine first!

MC is Dylan, who is stubborn, quiet, and strong-willed.  A little self-protective.  Lmk if his dialogue fits his personality.

Those genres are all really fun! Do you usually write short stories with them or longer-length projects?

Your WIP sounds quite interesting! What stage are you at with it right now?

Vanilla ice cream is indeed supreme. As well as cheesecake.

Eyy, pineapple on pizza gang!

My favorite genres: historical fiction, future/dystopian, stuff like that. XD

WIP: About a guy who’s part of a caste of people changed by a sadistic government experiment.

Best deserts: Cheesecake and vanilla ice cream!

Pineapple on pizza?  Yeah! 😀

Thanks for the welcome!
