1
I wanted to write something short and sweet. I wasn't really sure where I was going with it and just kept writing freely but was later inspired by themes of friendship rather than romance.
2
I think the writing style was the hardest thing for me to figure out. I wasn't really sure how I wanted to write or how I wanted to go about the storyline but I relaxed myself and decided the best thing to do was just write for me.
3
Probably creating the characters and their relationships.
I was very fortunate to have my story be positively received. I felt very supported and encouraged by the people who read it :')
stand alone
Not every story has to end with a perfect romance. More normalization of friendships between boys and girls that don't turn into love stories :')
7
Don't worry about trying to impress everyone. Don't attempt to mimic a writing style that isn't you just because other people like that writing. Write the way that feels most natural to you.
8
I think that April is a lot shyer than I am but I also think she's a daydreamer and she prefers to keep to herself so I think I can relate to her in those aspects.
9
People on this website generally seem to like sweet and concise stories that are easy to read and Lickety Split fits into that category so that's what mainly draws people to the story, in my opinion.
I have many! I have no idea where to start or when I'm publishing anything but I have plenty of ideas and stories that I'm in the process of writing and developing :')

The Card Thief of Culnivar
Deep with the cozy kingdom of Daeton, among the generation-old farmlands and villages, a young farmer’s daughter stumbles upon a dead man. His elaborate clothing has been torn to ribbons, yet his skin remains unblemished. His face is peaceful, and tucked into the hand lying across his chest can be seen a solitary playing card. He is a Ludum Haeres. The last remnant of a Summoner. Numbered among those few capable of changing their destinies. The unseen rulers of the world known as Vesperia, and one of the most powerful creatures in existence. The woman knows none of this. And so, she picks up the card... This is my third novel on Royal Road, the first being "Beyond the Horizon's Eye", and the second being "The Dawnfire Archives". This story is something of a test in a new genre, that of CardLIT. We'll see how well it succeeds as the story continues. It takes place in a different setting than my other tales, with an entirely new cast of characters. It does, however, contain several ties between the stories. Average post between 1000 - 3000 words.
