some tips i have:
  • make a consistent character voice, remembering to write through their perspective, giving them a personality beyond just "shy, flustered highschool y/n"
  • vary your sentence structures (e.g. adding a very short sentence to create a tense atmosphere), using language techniques such as metaphors (e.g. "Your affection is like a warm blanket, wrapping me in comfort.")
  • create chemistry between the characters, giving them shared interests, for example, that they can bond over
  • give the protagonist (y/n) a goal that isn't to do with their lover, For example, you could say that y/n stayed behind after school to work on a project they wanted to get good grade for, and maybe the love interest stayed behind to help them (very cliche i know i know)
  • Show, don't tell: Instead of saying "I was scared," describe the physical sensations: "My heart hammered against my ribs, and the air felt too thick to breathe".
  • Limit words like "I", using a variety of ways to describe y/n.
creating a plot:

write down the following headings:
  • main character (who leads the story)
  • situation at the start
  • motivation (what your character wants)
  • what disturbs the situation at the start (conflict)
  • developments (what happens next)
  • climax (the peak of the story, usually where things start coming to an end)
  • resolution (how things resolve)
  • epilogue (what happens after the story ends, cute for seeing a domestic couple in the future!)
then, summarise these into one paragraph or less, before starting to flesh it out into a complete draft. usually having someone read over your finished story after you have edited it is good for getting a second opinion. i'm always available if you need someone to do that for you!

romance writing prompts:
  • a falls asleep in the car, b carries them inside
  • only one bed: a builds a pillow wall, but still wakes up in b's arms
  • it's raining and there's only one umbrella
  • a is cold and b offers them their jacket
  • the group is playing hide and seek and a and b end up stuck in a small space together
  • a gives b first aid

remember to consistently practice to improve your writing skills, and enjoy!

-Well first you make sure that you have how they say the words for example "You’re singing the notes correctly, but you’re missing the heart. Music isn't a math problem you can just solve." His voice was cool and clinical, though a small, frustrated crease appeared between his brows as he tapped a rhythmic, impatient pattern against his clipboard.
-describe y/n as she/her or he/him for the readers or if you wanna do x reader say you/your/yours
-ALWAYS make sure there are warnings such as depression ******* or other things for the readers to know because they might have those kind of bad thoughts
-check for typos before sending if you miss one on accident then just edit it
IF YOU WANT MORE TIPS I CAN HELP
