Everyone should go read @funnybear12 's stories. They are both amazing so far and you will fall into the engrossing universe this spectacular author creates without fail every time.

Thanks for the great advice! 
          I have one request to make: if or when I write a story, can u look at it for me? I've been told that criticism can really help with writing, so...if it's not too much to ask...will u read my soon-to-be-on-wattpad story?
          
          Thanks again for the advice!

@tahera001 Sure, I'd love to! I'm glad you thought the advice was good, and I hope it helps you with your writing :D

BTW I noticed ur profile pic.  K-pop ROCKS!!!!! 
          
          I also wanted to ask I'd u were going to carry on with ur story 'to float'. It's an amazing book and would become a great hit, in my opinion.

@tahera001 Yes~ Kmusic has ruined my life. As for the advice, what I have done to improve my writing even before 'to float' and then after that, is better my descriptions and also pay attention to minor details. If you want to really reach your readers, it helps immensely to put yourself in the situation you're writing (i.e. how are you feeling? What do you see, smell, hear, maybe you sense the coppery taste of blood in your mouth as your throat tightens. Things like that). Also try to switch up sentence structure so that you don't have a book completely composed of complex/compound sentences or only of simple ones. Focus on diction, the element of pathos, imagery---subtle things that the reader might not pick up on, but also make a huge difference to writing style.
            
            For now, it is not in my agenda to continue any of my stories, because I am really trying to focus on school and experiencing my life as much I can. Though I still write, I don't publish any pieces. Maybe one day I will resume my stories, but it's doubtful. 
            
            I hope my shitty advice helped a bit!

Honestly, anything really! I want to be able to entertain readers...i want to.. Pull heartstrings, make people laugh, cry...just understand what the protagonist is going through. 
          
          sorry for such a cheesy request!
