#WritersCoffeeClub April 8
Do you think of your books as having a particular length? <-- catching up.
The only time I consider the length of my books is after they're written. Then, I check to see what qualifies as a #novel or #novella.
Since jumping into the #webnovel arena, one platform has demanded chapters be no greater than 15k characters—this is because of the fiction-on-phone readership's alleged 'short attention span'. rolls eyes
This is the first chapter of a web novel that I’m working on! I aim to have one chapter a week out on Tuesdays (hopefully).
Here’s the synopsis:
A young woman by the name of Iyla happens upon a magical codex that accidentally becomes registered to her, marking her as a new magus, and giving her the Sight, an ability to see the unseen and hidden parts of her world that is normally undisclosed to outsiders without a need to know. Bewildered by her new powers, she learns to use them and interacts with creatures and peoples straight out of her favorite stories!
The #Webnovel adaptation of episodes 13, 13.5 and 14 of Anathema to Commonsense have been published! The unlucky people who got stranded in time and put on trial for the space-time incident got some relief but it’s not over just yet…
You Huo, his uncle and his cousin are transported into a mysterious 'examination' system, where the questions could easily kill any of the examinees. Breaking the rules to test the system, You Huo gets under the skin of Invigilator 001, but the two can't get away from each other.
Recording the podcast/audiobook version of my #webnovel really makes me think about AI voices… I notice how I pronounce the same words differently depending on who is saying it and what their emotional state is and whether it is their internal monologue or in dialogue and how well they know the person they are talking to… and whether or not that is something that I pull off well or not I really don’t think that AI could ever do any of that. Sure you can make a voice say whatever you want it to say… but can you make it feel whatever you want it to feel?
Good acting and VA (and I’m not going to say I am a brilliant voice actor or anything. I just do it for fun on the internet) isn’t just saying the words. It isn’t just creating a character that is saying words. It is creating words that sound like somebody meant something when they said them, beyond the literal meaning of the words.
