Reblogging because I missed this so much 😭

People talk a lot about how reading is necessary for writing, but when you really want to improve your writing, it’s important to go beyond just simple reading. Here are some things to do when reading:

Note how they begin and end the story. There are a ton of rather contradictory pieces of advice about starting stories, so see how they do it in the stories you enjoy. Don’t only look at the most popular stories, but look at your more obscure favorites.

See what strikes you. Is it fast or complicated scenes with a lot of emotions? Is it stark lines? Pithy dialogue? What do you remember the next day?

Pay attention to different styles. It’s not just whether they use past or present tense, first or third person. It’s whether the writing is more neutral or deeper inside character’s heads. Do they use italics? Parentheses? Other interesting stylistic choices? Take the ones you like and try them out in your own writing. See what works and what doesn’t.

Keep track of how they deal with other characters. Do we see a lot of secondary character each for very brief periods of time or are there a couple that show up a lot? How much information do we get about secondary characters? Do they have their own plots or do their plots revolve entirely around the main characters? 

Count how many plots there are. Is there just one main plot or are there multiple subplots? Are the storylines mostly plot-based or character-based?  

Pay attention to what you don’t like. If you don’t like what’s going on in a book or even just a scene, note what it is. Does the dialogue feel awkward? Are the characters inconsistent? Does the plot feel too convenient or cobbled together? Does the wording just feel off? See if you can spot those issues in your own writing, especially when reading a completed draft or beginning a later draft.

(Great advice! I wanted to tack on other things I look for when reading)

Pay attention to how they introduce characters. Very rarely will it be all at once, and I guarantee the author went over the intro of each major character again and again while editing, so I always like paying extra close attention! Did the intro endear you to the character? Make you dislike them? How did the author impart that emotion?

Note instances of worldbuilding/info dumps, especially parts that don’t seem like worldbuilding/info dumps. Maybe the character mentions something offhand about a location you’ll see five chapters later. Maybe the internal dialogue makes a comparison to the character’s childhood. Was the information effective or did it leave you wanting more? Make note of anything that made you go, “ooh, neat!”

After you finish the story, try to find foreshadowing that you missed the first time through! It can be as simple as skimming and looking for phrases you know are important after finishing the story. Most authors add foreshadowing in the editing stage, so I tend to ponder how the story would read before they added it. Ninety-nine percent of the time, the story seems more magical for it and it’s just nice to appreciate.

What plot structures could the story fit into? We all know about the three arc stories, hero’s journey, etc. Sometimes stories can fit into more than one category. During the read and after, keep it in the back of your mind. Can you predict where the climax of the story will hit? Is it man v man or man v nature? Does the predictability (or lack thereof) add to or take away from the story?

“YOU TOLD ME TO USE MY PHONE!?!”

“NOT THAT WAY, IDIOT!!”

Thus the reason why Sawamura had an android phone while Miyuki still kept his flip phone. Don’t you all think so, too?? :^)

Kudos with love and appreciations for the inspirational quote: @sawamuranoace

“Daiya no Ace” x “Ace Contacts” Official Collaboration Manga

Friendly reminder that this was an official ‘Daiya no Ace’ x ‘Ace Contacts’ (a Japanese contact lens maker) collaboration manga that appeared in the Weekly Shonen Magazine in 2012 (source: X).

Basically, it’s about Miyuki starting wearing contact lenses instead of glasses because Sawamura told him to do so.

(Here goes my crappy translation)

Sawamura: Miyuki-senpai, why do you use contacts only during the club activity? Miyuki: What does that matter? Just focus on the training, Sawamura. Sawamura: You are so good-looking, you should always wear contacts. Miyuki: What? *is totally shocked and fails to catch his pitch* Miyuki: Damn! I’m sorry.. Sawamura: Come on! *few days later* Girl 1: Did you see Miyuki-senpai from the baseball club? Girl 2: Yeah, he looks so cool without glasses! Sawamura: Miyuki-senpai! You seem to have become popular with girls! Did you go to the ‘Ace Contacts’ [and get new contacts]? Miyuki: You always chatter too much. Just focus on the training. Miyuki: (Maybe I should really start wearing contacts outside of the club activity, too!)

Again, this was an official advertisement that appeared in the Weekly Shonen Magazine back in 2012.

Miyuki, the genius catcher, failed to catch Sawamura’s pitch because Sawamura told him he’s good-looking.

And Sawamura apparently is jealous angry that Miyuki became popular with girls.

And now, try to convince me that Miyuki and Sawamura are not in love with each other XD
