Talk:How to Create Better Stories/@comment-28439145-20180510172312

This is great advice, but I don't agree with the cliche section. Cliche characters can actually be done very well. For example, imagine you have a rare spike wearing arctic wolf who cares about nobody but him/herself, so he/she bullies jammers and never gets caught, since he/she targets non-members, who have less authority than members. However, he/she only does this because they are insecure about themselves and they need to put other people down in order to make themselves feel better.

Also, said should be used in most cases. Using other words ALL the time will end up making the story sound a bit strange. I tried this technique before, and it fit terribly with my writing style, but perhaps it will work for other people.

Everything else is brilliant and very helpful, thanks for assisting other users who may be new or inexerienced!
