I'm typing this from my phone, so please do ignore any possible errors that might occur throughout this chapter.

It occurred to me late at night while i was almost falling asleep when i realised, the main reason why most stories weren't working well was because of their plot. I'm not talking about cliched plots, though yes, it's a contributing factor, but more importantly on stories that are overly dramatic. stories that have 30-40 chapters, or more, a hundred maybe, that has continuous drama: honestly?

melodramatic scenes are usually meant for plays, wherein it is hard to explain through your tone, you make it up for your emotions to the audience in an attempt to capture the audiences' attention. most stories focus on one dramatic scene, and briefly run through the others. they could go on and on about how Kai cheated on Kyungsoo, and how they finally managed to clear things up, but give a 100 word summary of their two million other quarrels (i exaggerate, but you get what i mean). i really dislike stories that go on for 40 chapters and ends, only to be continued with another sequel that would end in about 50 or so. the main point of a sequel is for a story that has received overwhelming demands after the original ending, therefore a sequel is made. if you already have 40 chapters, i really don't see why you need to go on with never ending drama.

I'm telling you this on behalf of your readers: nobody likes drama all the time.

Alright, say that the drama is really needed to progress their relationship, but for the love of god, your grammar is really important. it doesn't matter which language you're writing in; if there's a really intense scene going on especially in ual situations, please get someone to read it through for you. now that we're on the topic of ual scenes, i know that many of you attempt to avoid writing it because you feel as though you're unable to, and all i have to say is that I'm happy that you don't want to butcher the whole scene, but i feel sorry for you because you'll never learn from your mistakes. it's just the same as people tending to avoid writing certain topics as they are taboo around eg. , , ia, social gender binary issues (yes, it's more than just 'gay' 'lesbian' 'biual', there's a lot out there. as much as it's refreshing to see that people write about mpreg hermaphrodites I'm sorry sweetie, but they can't get pregnant. the only possibility for a male to conceive is if they are female-to-male transuals) and of course, reality. sometimes it's nice to know that people are taking writing as a form of social escape, but if you were to delve deeper into main issues, it might make things better. I'm not going to say what kind of issues, so rather than being told of a existing social issue, you could find out more. (((coughsocialrealismandpossiblegenderdiscriminationcough)))

this has been a serious update, but i hope everyone would keep this into consideration.

once again, this was updated via my phone and i hope this doesn't s up. good night.
