Hi everyone :) Since I'm simlit guide has been stickied, I'm looking to expand it with inputs from you! Specifically I'd like 2 more quotes on questions that only have one answer so far.
Specifically I'm looking for your insights on these questions that a new simlit writer could ask
- How long should my posts be?
For this question I'm looking for any kind of opinion/insight you have on it. It doesn't have to be dependent on the quote I already have in the guide. Just say what you honestly think. This can be either reader's or writer's perspective or both. What length do you prefer as a reader? How do you feel about a chapter's length when writing? Do you shorter more frequent updates or longer but less frequent updates? Or any other thoughts you might have :)
- How often should I update?
For the update question I'd like a reader's perspective since the quote I already have is a writer's perspective. So what do you prefer in terms of the update schedule when reading a story? How do you feel if the writer doesn't stick to a schedule? How do you feel about irregular updates?
If you want to share your opinion, PM me with your quote for the guide. I'd prefer submissions by somewhat experienced writer's since this is supposed to be a guide FOR new people. Not saying you need to have a story completed or 100+ chapters under your belt, but preferably you should not just have started. This is just to make sure your quote is credible and has a solid foundation :)
If I receive multiple submissions, I'll choose 1 or 2 per question for the guide.
Looking forward to your insights!
And Thank you @CathyTea :) I'm glad this can be an even more helpful resource for new member's now.
