hey not to sound rude or anything it’s just a critic that i would like to share with you bc i feel like you write too much detail about other things that aren’t really how do i say it not important to the storyline. for example you wrote almost a whole chapter of jk and his friends doing absolutely nothing other than bicker for 30mins while drinking beer and what not so while it’s cool and very important for us readers to know about some details and information about the characters in the story it’s just too much and you did it again in chapter 7 too it’s like we never get to see him interact with oc more than 5 mins and the next moment he’s with his friends or idk she has to work on this and that like i get it she has to work but i don’t need to know the equipments. again im not trying to be rude or discredit you i love your story it’s very interesting i just want to let you know what you might do better next time if you would allow us to criticize you :)

hii, thank you so much for your insight!! i really appreciate it, although i am sorry those scenes felt excessive for you. they're meant to visualise the atmosphere, introduce you to the characters, build on their personalities, and strengthen the storyline, so it isn't just two-dimensional cardboard cut-outs interacting with each other in a vacuum. i'm hoping for full immersion into this universe with the way i write, but i understand if you're mainly interested in the two main characters interacting -- that's obviously totally fine! thank you for reading so far, anyway! 🥰❤️

#ask #anonymous #taexual; sleepwalking #ah i guess i'm striving more for literary fiction rather than just romance with this one? #so the pace stays as realistic as possible and the characters think A LOT....... #and most of the facts are supported by examples #so you won't have to just take my word for it later when i claim that the OC has a good relationship with the rest of the staff #or when JK claims to have something in common with his friends that isn't just Being Male (even though that's basically it tbh lmao) #you won't have to assume these things because you've read about them before #me and flimsy comments to push the plot don't get along #most of what happens is Substantial and it is Explained & Explored in the perspective of the characters #yeah idk i like to write #i like to imagine #i like to think #that's why it's long and that's why it's slow burn #so i am really very sorry if you were looking for something different!:( #but again i thank you for this message! i will still take your words into consideration regardless 🥰 #there will obviously be a lot more of direct interactions between the two main characters #if you're willing to stick around for it!! #i'm grateful either way!
