🧩 ⇢ what will make you click away from a fanfiction immediately?

Grammar and format! A few mistakes here and there are totally fine, I've definitely noticed mistakes in my own works lol, but when it becomes distracting? Then we have a problem.

Newly unmoored in the Scottish countryside, Eloise decides a letter to Bloomsbury is in order.

Here's a few more (off the top of my head):

run away to a world that we design by sachantquiladesailes_98

Theo and Eloise meet as children, while his father sells books to hers. Despite their differences in station and the way that life does not work out too well for Theo, they can't be kept apart. Eloise is far too determined for that.

It is their wedding night and Theo comes up with a way to calm a nervous Eloise, with the help of a certain poet he knows she loves.

A great crime by framboise

When Benedict finds his sister in the library at a ball, dress torn, bloodied letter knife in hand, he knows he will do anything he can to help her. And if anything involves finishing off the villain who has tried to harm her and then fleeing with her in the night, then that is what he shall do.

🌿 ⇢ give some advice on writer's block and low creativity

Lol you are asking the wrong person, but I'll try to answer anyway! I think outlining is really important: the more detailed, the better. This way, when you're writing, there's very little decision-making involved, you're just focusing on executing the scene. Personally, for dialogue-heavy scenes, I like to write a script instead of a more traditional outline.

But, yeah, all of this is easier said than done lol. (🤡)

I love all comments! I think my favourite comments are the ones that mention what exactly they liked about the chapter, and I usually try to leave those comments myself.

Thanks for the ask! <3
