This is a weird one, but I've had some issues with being given bad faith criticism.

How do you guys tell good faith criticism from the jerks? And how do you determine which criticism you're going to implement if two people tell you to do opposing things?

Cool links here. And now I have a question! (gasp)

Can anyone recommend links to research cruise ships (beyond r/cruises)? Going on one and/or working on one? I have an idea about a woman stuck on a Flower Power oldies music cruise...👀

#LitHodgepodge 11 and well I guess I'd like to know what service (if any) you use to self-publish and how you felt about them. I am of course based in Germany, but I do have English stuff that might be of interest to non-German-speakers, so every experience is welcome.

I don't have a specific question, but thought it'd be helpful for everyone to share useful (online) tools that you find you use constantly while writing. So let's make a reference library!
Drop your favourite links so other authors can find them

Why can I never think of questions?

@pjccahill.bsky.social, gimme a breakdown of your top inspirations for your work! You write such dynamic worlds, I wanna see what helped realise them! ✌️

#LitHodgepodge my fellow AuDHD and/or chronic fatigued writers: do you have any hot tips for me about sitting down and making myself DO the darn thing?? It's amazing how something can be your purpose in life and also the very last thing you want to do

#LitHodgepodge I posted about this before, & got a few kind suggestions, but right I'm struggling with chapter length.

I'm writing/editing a very close POV character driven story, & sometimes one interaction leads to other interactions, introspection, & actions, - 1/3

#LitHodgepodge 11

I hope this isn't too general! But, I have been thinking of switching away from Word to a different word processing software.

Does anyone have one they find intuitive to use and that suits their needs for this type of writing?

#LitHodgepodge

For a specific writer, I know she's been gone off and on but I adore how Patience (@jacevk.bsky.social) writes whimsical/absurd humor. Do you just write what makes you laugh off the top of your head or do you plan humor out elaborately?

(1/2)

Here's a good general one for our #writingcommunity - do you have tips/tricks/techniques for distinguishing character voice?

Lu at 19 and at 25

What do you think would work as bait to trap Lu? 🤔

#LitHodgepodge 10. What would you use to trap your character?

This is Meghan (aka Megs or May). What 1-3 things would I use to set a trap for this 10 yr old street kid?

#LitHodgepodge 11

Still not really thinking about specific authors on Bluesky, but I do so love this trope. To those of you who use it, how do you make the narrator sound convincing? Like, how do they know everything about the characters in the story and whatnot?

I’m curious what y’all are going to try to use to lure Kai in…

If you were laying a trap for me, what 1-3 things would you set out as bait?

Only picture I have of Iberto.

#LitHodgePodge 10
I have only this one as a proper portrait, so it's going to be this one again. Sorry this doesn't give away too much about her

#LitHodgePodge 10

Ok I've done this before and I'm gonna do it again. NecroRaver, and his favourite piece of artwork.

Now... how would you set a trap for him?
