Writer Question How would you best convey that the story you’re writing is a dark fantasy geared towards adults and as such contains adult themes. I’m a little anxious as I approach the finish line.

Sorry if that came across as harsh. The cut-offs really were the only thing I would call a criticism, and that is a delicate balancing act, figuring out when and where to employ it. Like I said, there were times it worked exactly as intended and made the dialogue feel more real. As you no doubt noticed from there being no review today, I won’t be able to do one of these daily. I have several other things I’m reading and writing. Amusingly, one of the stories taking shape in my head (I have the plot, but haven’t worked out the main character’s arc yet) is almost like Fiends’ mirror image. Anyway, I will try and steadily work my way through Chapter 2 soonish. You mention that this is an early work and maybe a little rough compared to your later stuff, but while I don’t have anything later to compare it to, I think it’s a hell of a good start!

I always add the COMPLETED tag when I finish a story, if only to keep people from posting lengthy “reviews” about what they want to see in the next chapter. Now they pester me for sequels instead.

Desi makes a good point. So, I went to all of my stories and added the Complete tag to the stories which it applies to.

“Completed” – thinking that eliminates at least 95% of the stories.

So… we just had our second police shooting…
