Here is the villain from my story. There actually going to be more but this is the leader of the group. "Welcome, lost ones! My name is Mikel Richardson. The founder of the Rise of Light. You are here because my fellow followers have found you. Don't be scared. I'm here to help you. I'm helping y…

Here's my villain's introduction. It's an excerpt from my 3rd chapter "Dracious, why did you do this too me, " said the man. "You sacrificed so much of our brethren for what!" "Matthew," said Dracious, "you'll never understand." "I don't think I want to!" yelled Matthew. "You and your silly…
I’m working on my first villain arc for my action-comedy, Supernova. I’d like to meet some of your bad guys! Introduce any of your villains using an excerpt from your novel. If you have any artwork as well, share that too! Don’t forget to link your story. ————————————————— “Supernova! What a del…
I don't use a thesaurus, but I do a lot of british slang websites. Actually I really need to get to making a compilation of words and phrases for easy access because I'm really bad and thinking up ripe insults on the fly.
Nope, but there is a lot 
I’ve never had this many reads on my stories before.
For me, mystery needs to be balanced with the lines that I can logically follow. I grow frustrated when everything is too nebulous, particularly if the plot relies on setting different from the existing one. For example, I am currently feed backing a book where the author constantly saying that t…
Mystery is one of my favorite genres, but I actively avoid mystery stories that take place in historical (cough Victorian London cough) settings or modern settings that revolve around government conspiracies. Those two are pretty much the face of the mystery genre and I feel like the genre really is…
I love mysteries--but my favorite mysteries usually reveal smaller mysteries before they get to the big main reveal. If there was only one big reveal at the end, I would be awfully bored by the end of the book. Part of the fun of mystery is when you start to unveil all of the secret plots behind the…
I like mysteries, maybe not as much in a genre I particularly love but I read them every now and then; I think impatience, when excluding people being easily distracted or wanting quick gratification, might be the lack of initial payoffs. A lot of writers fall in the big mystery, talk about the big …
This is a problem I've talked about having all over the place in all genres. Some people seem to have no patience at all and don't seem to understand basic tension building. They want you to spell out the villains plan from the get go. They want to know everything about who a character is on their…
I've never thought about it before now, but whenever I say that I love a good mystery, I really mean a good detective story. Which is a specific category of mystery, but there are other stories that aren't detective stories that are mysteries...interesting.
I love mysteries! One of my favorite series of all time is Higurashi and the thrill I had reading through the sound novels for the first time was absolutely incredible. It was mind-bending. I'll have to check out your work!
i like it when the mystery actually gets the reader actually thinking and try to solve the mystery themselves while the story progress. Making the reading go "wait, that this doesn't make any sense how could... .. O.O sudden realization WAIT..... WAIT WAIT.." then go back to the previous chapters to…
"Mystery" is kind of a large umbrella term that covers so many sub-genres on its own that when people say "yeah, I like mystery," they could mean a wide number of things. There's the classic Golden Age, "murder in a manor" type of deal, that puts the plot and the tricks/puzzles front and center but …
I wouldn't say I love a good mystery. In fact, it's one of those genres that I don't actively seek out but when I do consume a mystery story it has to be for another reason besides genre alone. I need a recommendation or (if it's not a print/text book) actors I enjoy to get my attention. I think i…
I think it's fair to say a lot of the Mystery genre is about particular styles instead of just the core mystery. That could be more of the disconnect than the ACTUAL mystery itself. I personally love me some Raymond Chandler and the pulp/hard boiled style. Not so much the Victorian locked room …
I actually tried this with my previous version, where several other comics were tied into the main comic. I do not recommend it as it's hard enough getting readers for one series, and most readers will not seek out the connecting works. So you end up having to try to market several stories over just…
I, not being American, don't give a damn where the book is set so long as it's an enjoyable read!
From the corners of his mind, somewhere far away from the memories playing out before him, horror was building up in Asher.
The problem was that her brain seemed to be moving much more slowly than usual, and the swift current of anger burbling beneath it seemed to be moving much faster. Not a great problem to have.
The last thing I saw before I closed my eyes was the fire, waving me good night.
"Nobody I'd trust more to murder a tree than him."
(This is a novel that is in the making.) "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA WHY IS THERE A RAT IN HIM?!"
"Good liars make their lies sound like the truth, great liars use the truth to convey their lies." from the the latest chapter of
"Have you ever thought that in your life? This life right now that you are living is a lie. Everything that you have been told throughout your life is not what it seems." This line is so philosophical. It just interesting. From the recent chapter of my novel:
Binaria sunk below the East and that little pinprick was left alone in a gaping maw of nothingness.
She went inside, redressed into a comfy purple sweater and jeans, and headed out to meet Eileen and her friends at the Everoak Café and Inn.
Not exactly two lines but I thought a little more context was necessary. "Thank you," I said. He sniffed again with a raised chin. "For what?" "For not forgiving me." He nodded. "You're welcome."
“So Daren, have you thought about my proposal?” he inquired, looking straight into the younger man’s eyes. The latter tried to resist the urge to avert his gaze, “I’m afraid my answer remains the same, my Lord…” Daren asserted.
