hey Ron i've been thinking, whenever you decide to start writing again maybe i can help you out a little more when it comes to writing. i've learned a lot this year when it comes to writing, and maybe just maybe i've gotten to the point where i can give proper advice. for example, your story's blurb, i think that needs a rewrite as it's way to short and doesn't really say much about what the theme of your story is. if you have the time we go to private messaging and i can tell you what might be a better blurb.

okay so i haven't commented here in a while cause i dont want to be annoying but...
          
          WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK HAS HAPPENED TO YOU RON?!
          
          like for real i tell myself that i've been able to help quite a few of my followers and a few of my fav authors on various things such as writting irl problems ect and then i remember you and im like 'WHAT CAN I DO?'

@dreaded_vagabond okay first of all dude. when you reply to me make sure you tag me cause otherwise i don't get the damn notification.
            
            anyway, as for your writer's block. i get it, i already scarping some of the first 20 or so chapters and rewriting them. my writing has improved quite a damn bit.
            
            also why can't you just scrap it and start over? i mean i don't want to be mean but. its not like that many people know of your works or even read them and i don't mind it if you want to scrap it to improve the story. 
            
            however if the reason you cant scrap is because you don't know how to rewrite it or if you simply don't have the time than i'm not sure what advice i can give. you can try listening to music that fits the overall theme of your story 'that's what i do to get new ideas' 
            
            also i'm going to say this again MAKE SURE YOU TAG ME WHEN YOU REPLY DAMN IT!
            
            it's been weeks since this reply and i haven't even read it until now.
            
            anyway i hope you can surpass your writer's block. one of the main reasons why i liked your story was because well, it was almost the same exact idea i originally had for one of my stories. 
            
            you have quite a lot of talent and i'm still going to follow you to see where you go and how you grow as an overall writer since you have caught my interest.

Woah dude take it easy, nothing happened, I'm just stuck right now. There hasn't been an update in a while because I'm stuck on what to do next. Half the time I'm contemplating scraping the whole thing and starting over but I can't do that, the other half of the time I think of just rushing the ending but that would be unsatisfactory for anyone else reading this and myself.

@dreaded_vagabond for some reason i didn't get notified when you replied DX but anyway good to hear i've actually been anticipating your next chapter. not much has happened to me I've began to re edit some of my old chapters whilst also writing new ones (which is a damn pain i can say that much but then again writing is about trial and error so i cant really complain) its good to hear everything is fine on your side. and...i don't have much else to say.

Hey Ron I should have asked this a little while back but what did you think of the fight scenes in chapter twenty two? We're they well written?

dreaded_vagabond

I think they're fine for the most part, just needs more impact. Though you should actually say what the acronym for EMP stands for if you're going to mention what it is. I do like the sounds the cryptoids make, kind of reminds me of Monster Hunter.

Ey Ron! Er mm how do you feel about chapter seventeen? I feel like it's my worse chapter so far heeheh yeah... I feel like I could have done sooo much better but I was pressed for time.

dreaded_vagabond

That's what I mean, you've foreshadowed he wasn't an average human already, pretty well I might add. Though thinking about it, it works if that's a realization the other characters are having at that moment. Just not so much it that's something the narrator is directly telling the audience.

I said he isn't an average human as a person and a slayer recruit he is average every slayer recruit needs some knowledge of martial arts

It feels a little shorter than usual. Outside of that nothing seems that bad. You can take out the last line though. If the reader has made it 17 chapters in they're already aware Jack isn't average.

Ron you've been really inactive so here's a random question have you ever read the Tokyo ghoul manga?

dreaded_vagabond

I've mostly been inactive due to finals. I read part of Tokyo Ghoul but I couldn't really get into it. I mostly read older manga like Hokuto no Ken and Kikaider. The only ongoing manga I keep up with anymore is JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.
