Reading through Kamui's story makes me wonder if the lack of descriptions of my characters (appearance) ever bothers any readers.

I'm the same way... no appearance descriptions xD

I think I do highlight at least one feature since I believe readers like to imagine how the character's look like and having at least one piece of detail can do wonders.

I think that is the 'novelist' way of describing a character, tbh. Just one or two highlight or standout features is the best, and leave the rest to the reader imagination. I find that too many novels here describe a little too much.

Maybe, maybe. But I do like some details, at least. I do feel like some novels do describe too much, but sometimes I feel like I describe too little.

Heck, the islands and food got more lines of description than the people!

We have literal pictures of our characters, just stick it in the glossary and ask people if they want to see it else they can use there own imagination. It would also give the glossary some much needed love

I believe in you, Fy!

You can do it

Gonna try and release a chapter tonight.

Off topic, but does anyone have music they listen to as they write?

A dead character in my story got more appearance description than the main characters ever did.

Ah, well, I was talking more about the side characters I don't have a picture for. But I do think the glossary is a good idea~

Depends? Sometimes music is too distracting, to be honest. Sometimes it's nice to listen to some music, which I usually default to either lofi or Touhou.

I'm pretty sure I never really put a description of my main character, now that I look at it. In the story at least...

Oh my, she's bald!!!

Not really. Sometime I got LoFi, other time I just got a podcast in the background running

Better yet, It is transparent!

I will now let myself be taken by sleep. Hope I can rest well tomorrow and come up with more ideas to sate the ever growing hunger of Luxia.

 

[Reborn_Cat]

Is anyone there?

 

[fyrre]

Is anyone there?

I am! I see you changed your profile picture.

 

[Reborn_Cat]

I am! I see you changed your profile picture.

Yeah, just felt like it plus I've seen this pic so much I thought why not

[GodlyKamui]

I just write longer descriptions because of the lack of appropriate images for my characters.

Hope you guys know that @ohko released a chapter three hours ago.
