• An addendum to Rule 3 regarding fan-translated works of things such as Web Novels has been made. Please see here for details.
  • We've issued a clarification on our policy on AI-generated work.
  • Our mod selection process has completed. Please welcome our new moderators.
  • Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com. Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.
  • For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
  • Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
  • Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.
  • The rules regarding NSFW links have been updated. See here for details.

    The benefit, too, of outlining with only (or almost only) the plot-beats is that it lets you see much of the scene in very few words. You can then add more and more beats as you see fit, piling them up until you have scenes rich in purpose and direction.

    I think I've found an even deeper, yet related, problem with my writing: When I outline, I should be laser-focused on the plot-beats. This allows me to build up a stack of logical progressions that can give meaning and complexity to each scene. Without that, writing a meaningful inner monologue, or exploring the emotions of a character at any given moment, is almost impossible.

    I think I've found a problem with my writing, and it's similar to a lot of other problems I have in life: I don't think enough but just fire it off. My first child will probably be a result of this.

    I received my first criticism and first extolment in the same day. I finally got "likes" for the first time on this forum, and this is the most attention anything I've ever written has gotten. I'm eager to keep going, and to do even better!
