It was no problem, best of luck on your project

I am on my phone right now so I can not read your writing :( I promise I will do so when I get home and post my thoughts. But really I feel your writing is not as big of an issue as confidence. One thing I can tell you before reading a word of it is that your story will be worse then some and better...

So far I like it- I will start with that :) it is an interesting concept and a brave one to address like this. Plenty of stories will touch on insecurities but few ever really get too into it. You have the possibility to make something very gritty and real here- which is pretty unique. That being sa...

I have been thinking about this as well and your advice really hit home - so thanks! It does seem hard to find a comfortable place to draw a line in the sand between what you want to create and giving the writers artistic freedom. I don't want to hijack a thread but since it seems topical do you hav...

... That does sound pretty awesome. Working with science like that can be tricky though since it is hard to balance out your rationalizations for everything with entertainment. On one side you end up with shallow plot devices and excuses just for the sake of doing cool stuff - on the other is hard s...

Sometimes you just have to ride that creative wave out. Inspiration and creativity are gifts so never regret them- even if they drag you down the harder road sprites are fun but I think you could really do some cool thematic things your way.

I find your arts both visually pleasing and soothing enough to take care of my poor confused brain Look forward to more!

Hmm. Took me two or three reads to make that all clear in my head but I think I got it It sounds pretty interesting! Not really much to add to that, except you might want to take some time to clear the concept up - just to make it easier to read. Look forward to hearing more about it.

Most of the stuff above covers what would be my initial response to your post. I agree that the trope of the super-evil-kills kittens while laughing manically-dresses in black and leaves a vent open in his superbase - badguy is overused. But in it's defense I would just like to point one thing out. ...

I looks like a really interesting project and I look forward to the demo! Good luck getting the funding, really. If that does not pan out remember that there are always new artists out there that you could ask to give it a shot. It's not going to be easy but they need the practice and if you need th...

While it looks like you certainly have a framework for what you want to do, I am left with no idea as to whether you have what it will take to pull it off. I understand wanting to play cards close to your chest on a project like this so instead of berating you with questions about the characters and...

If there's no reason for them to be there later in the story, don't force it. It'll seem, well, forced. A better question might be: do the parents need to be there at all? Every single scene, line of dialogue or character has to serve a purpose. How essential are they to the story? Does the setting...

Another thing you would want to maybe try is write out a biography for your character and put it next to your plot line. Look at the pieces of her past and then look at the other elements of your story and find parts where you can drop them in. Ideally you would want the 'puzzle pieces' of her story...

A lot of good tips above. I myself like to make my characters embody an archetype when I create them - so it becomes pretty obvious when I have character personalities that overlap. While in the real world there are plenty of people who are similar - in fictional ones it is fine to just make one to ...

It's possible to create a slice of life story with several young women but without a harem lead. For instance, your characters can simply be a group of friends, with or without any romantic bonds. But if you believe you can write BxG harem well, then go for it. It's your decision what you create. I...
