Personally Maybe with a mini intro and avoid coming out and being like ‘this is my first story’ why? Because it makes it feel a story I want it to feel real y’know? (By this I mean I wanna feel like I am reading something real)
With CC first? Or when you see the characters you start to cc them.
Either or I’m personally okay with both even there is no Cc it doesn’t matter.
Family relations? Both or just one parent.
This definitely depends on the concept of the story and where you’re planning on going with it.
Siblings?
Again it all depends on what role will they play.
Age groups? Probably between 14-19 in high school or early college!
Personally 11th-early college perfect!
How many LI’s?
I may create separate stories for male LIs or female LI’s!
Or branching the story.
I prefer to have CC after I see the character. I would like the story to open up with a dramatic scene first. I personally don’t really like it when it’s just panning over an empty background with narration. At least add some action to the background.
I prefer the MC to at least have one guardian, preferably both parents, so that they’re not just an orphan (unless it’s important to the story of course).
I prefer no siblings, since they’re usually unnecessarily to the plot. I prefer an age group from 17-26, even though I’m younger.
