Ugh."Another webnovel general," thought Zorian. Well, he would have to see about that.After a few minutes' contemplation, he hummed thoughtfully as if he found the solution to his woes.Nodding sagely, he devised a simulacrum to tackle this admittedly boring problem.-break-

My novel must succeed or it's suicide time.

>>24717669 I was going to say "strong A New Hope inspiration" but it's not 1:1. Awesome regardless.Love the space battle in the background, reminds me of Target Earth's intro: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KucLHqqbY7kYou're gonna put the title on top or on the bottom? Or no title?

Don't use adverbs or adjectives. Only use precise nouns and verbs.
>>24717900he said calmly
>>24717900he proclaimed with authority and conviction
>synopsis apes the style of ye olde classics>injected with a list of memes and buzzwords to sell the storythere's such a thing as mixed communication, and this is it.
>>24717900I sometimes inject the most egregious adverb I can think of where it's not even needed just out of spite, the author contemplated retrospectively.
>>24717900I don't entirely buy this advice. Adverbs make sense when they are part of a phrase the reader expects to be there, even if the adverb doesn't add additional meaning. >a very unique swordvs>a unique swordUnique might mean one-of-a-kind, but a "very unique" sword is more evocative. Swords are pretty similar to one another, but every sword is also unique since it's made by human hands rather than a machine. "Very unique" implies that it differs from other swords by more than you expect.Imo this is similar to sentence length. Variance will make it better - use adverbs for emphasis on sentences that matter (or vice versa).
a happy little adverb here and there
