So in my FF someone gets a prophecy that three or two new clans should form, I was wondering how they do that, how do they find a suitable territory, what would they do first and in the FF everyone can join in if they want, I was wondering if there should be exceptions, because…
Hi guys! I'm writing a book and am looking for a suitable name for one of the characters. The character is the headmistress of a school in a magical, hidden world. She's about 30 years old, has red hair tied back in a bun, and brown eyes. She's friendly and fair, but also strict and…
Hello there I have a different account on my laptop than on my phone. And since I only have time on my laptop in the evenings, I wanted to have this account on my phone as well. However, I still want my stories to remain on my phone account. Would that work? I'm really not…
Greetings! I'm looking for names for these two cats. (The picture is not mine) They are both loyal and brave cats, but please choose names based on their looks and not their personality. Lg. Mondfell
I'm writing a story and need some dark names. I don't care if the meaning is dark (like Nox) or the story behind these names is dark (like Hades). Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
This is about a book character. And please don't write "nobody." I don't really like anyone either, but I don't have to like them.
Hey, I always write a red thread and rework it. In the course of history, more ideas I try to integrate them.
Can of course completely improvise, but you should have a rough plan of perpetrators, motive, crime scene, etc.

A criminal has a lot to do with logic. If the action is not true or illogical, the whole story is garbage. Therefore, no one criminal is indispensable for a structured plot. It must be fixed from the start that is the process, otherwise you can’t generate any voltage.
To do this, you should research well how the police really work. At least when it comes to the book. A lot of what you know from books and films does not correspond to reality.
This depends on your type of writing. I rarely plan and still manage to deliver my perpetrator to the knife. But what you always need is an idea of the perpetrator, an idea of the suspects and how it has come to the action. So far you should plan.
I would say that depends among other things on the necessary knowledge and how much you still lack. Research the topics that are to be found in the Crimea so that it is also authentic and realistic.
If you have the knowledge base, I would plan in advance what the rough action should be. So a rough layout from the beginning, middle and end.
Theoretically you can start 🙂
That’s exactly what I wanted to write. 👍🏼
You should plan in advance what should happen when, with Krimis, you have to plan something more here than with other stories because you always worry about the details that will bring the protagonist (e.g. an investigator) closer to the perpetrator or lure him on false ferries, as said, the smallest details are of great importance.
