um my fics are here,
hi I'm new and I have only started writing fics, so there is only so little of the things I posted.
this is a bit embarassing because I can't be compared to the writers here and I know there is probably still so much weakness to point out, but I guess I want to know what they are precisely from the eyes of the readers! I also want to know what I do well/what I should keep doing.
I think I'm beginning to enjoy writing, so I want to know how I can write better. your concrit will be much appreciated :)

I had a quick read - I've never seen your u/n around so hello!
I'm not entirely familiar with the characters you write (I guess I'm more old school kpop). I think you do suffer somewhat from the typical telling more than showing trap - which is very easy to fall into (esp. with I've seen fire and i've seen rain). I think just take the time and care to really think more about your characters and get in touch with their emotions and see things from their perspectives?
I hope this was somewhat helpful! Please keep writing - you definitely have so much potential - I spotted a lot of interesting imagery. Keep honing your skills and I'm sure you'll improve!

hello hello :)
ah I see... I think I tend to do that in longer fics--the ones where I try to write an actual plot? thank you so much for the feedback! this was helpful because I guess now I know one of the reasons why my writings feel off to me at times.
aww that's really sweet of you, I do hope I can keep on writing and improve from time to time. thank you again for the concrit!

Hello there and welcome to kpop-het! And don't be embarassed! I admire your courage to ask for feedback so soon after you've started writing. :D ( ... )

thank you for the welcome greeting <3 I've actually been writing (for myself, by myself) from years ago but I have been really unproductive, so I thought maybe what I need was input from other people, hence here I am!

firstly, thank you for taking the time to read all of the fics I posted, that means a lot to me :')
"factual". I really like that you put it that way because now I know how to avoid doing the same thing and what I should try to focus on. I keep thinking that I need to develop a plot but I guess I ended up only telling the plot in a descriptive manner, in the form of a narration?

ah yes, I'm so often torn between writing in past tense and present tense! especially in that fic, I changed my mind halfway through writing it, so I guess I missed a few spots...

that one was all thanks to this piece tbh it was so brilliant. I was so amused at the idea that I tried writing cupid!joy myself.

Yes this really helped, thank you so so much!! good luck to you too :)
