Donāt just listen to the bad comments! Focus on the good ones and listen to the constructive criticism of others. Just donāt let people pull you down and take away your confidence!
Iāve never had any good ones except from my friend
Iām too scared to publish on episode again, Im transferring my story to wattpad now
Can someone help me with some ideas? I have writerās blockā¦
So, I am writing a story about a girl who commits crimes with her three friends.
The problem is that I canāt think of what crimes that they have to do during the story .
Iāve only thought about bank robbery but what more? And it must be crimes that you earn money on!
But I like to receive other crime ideas too! Iāve already thought of vandalism but what more?
So please brainstorm me!
Illegal gambling?
Drugs ring? Where drugs and money are stashed in houses
Yeah, why not! If you think of something more, feel free to write!

Thanks! If you come up with more suggestions, feel free to write!
I will
Iām actually writing a novel series and short stories at the moment about a mafia family based in Spain and Italy
Iām really struggling with ideas on how to come up with the mafia side of things since I got my manuscript reviewed by a fellow IG account and writer (stranger) the other day
I donāt quite know how to move my stories forward
The story sounds interesting! and there are a lot of good mafia movies! look at them and then you might get some inspiration to how to write in their side of things!
I do watch a lot of crime shows
But
Not movies
Iām just really struggling with the drugs, and violence side of it 
I donāt read very often so thatās extremely difficult to
yeah, it can be difficult to get the writing right on that! But I think you will find a way! Easiest is to see or read how others have done it and then make your own thing of it!
I have tried reading two different styles of books for input and ideas
But as I have dyslexia itās extremely difficult

I know I have dyslexia too so I know how hard it isā¦
I was originally only diagnosed with Numarcy dyslexia (dyslexia with numbers) but as time went on we actually realised I probably had both numbers and letters dyslexia as I find it extremely difficult to read a book, understand a book, and as I wasnāt given the proper care at school I wasnāt really given a fair chance
So, even though I love to write, my spelling is all wrong, my grammar is wrong and therefore I need extra help
I donāt understand the difference between there and their or which and
witch
I only have letters dyslexia and to me itās just like when I read something, the words is ājumpingā to me when Iāam trying to read and I also have problems with grammar. But it is even more difficult for me to do everything in english because itās not my native languageā¦
But what I do to understand though is that I read really slowly every sentence and then take a short ābreakā before reading to the next. So it goes into my head what Iām actually is reading, and if I still donāt understand, I just read the sentence again.
So my tip is do it slowly and believe in yourself! And if reading is too difficult then watch movies is easier! Because then you see how the characters behave and do and how the environment is and then you try to put it together into words. Itās not easy, but you can do it!
I usually do watch tv and movies more although people always encourage me to read
I write every chance I get either manuscript or script but itās extremely difficult
Yes, it is good to read too but do what feels best and what is easiest for you!
