★“The Longest Night” response · 8:46pm February 10th
Hey!~
★ I wanted to thank everyone for their support and critique about my first ever story on here! I didn’t have the time to really reply to them (in which I’ll do after this post) but I wanted to point out a few things I should have said/ done
★ First is spelling/mechanical errors:
I’m aware that there are hiccups of grammatical errors in which I apologize. I usually try to get all of them as I go (when I’m the writing stage) but there are a few that I overlooked so if there are still some in there, whenever I have the time I’ll make edits! I said in my first blog that I have dyslexia, and sometimes that slips into my writing which makes certain parts hard to read. That’s why I really needed to have a friend proof read for me but at the time when I was writing this I wasn’t able to. As for the mechanics of writing on here, I haven’t really gotten my grip on how to use everything so I apologize if some things look off!
★The Story itself:
I’m very aware that there are plenty of “Celestia feels bad and guilty after banishing her sister to the moon” stories. I wanted to do something relatively simple because irl I don’t have a lot of time to put forth a larger project (I have a few ideas but haven’t had the time to really flesh them out enough to be a solid storyline yet. Which is why I’m (for the time being) sticking to smaller projects (mostly under 5k words the most 10k at the moment). But I do appreciate That criticism ^^, because that just shows that I’ll need to be more creative with some of these short stories to make them stand out from the others! Though it’s inevitable that one story Will probably have a similar detail? I’ll try to make them as blatantly different as humanly possible.
★Overall I truly do appreciate once again everyone’s critique and helpful advice! I’ve been writing all my life but I still have a lot to learn! (P.s I hope my tone doesn’t come off as rude, I’m genuinely happy that I’m getting these responses, because it helps me into becoming a better writer 😊
★Until next time!~
