What is good writing, /lit/? Or at least what do you consider good writing? I know how to recognize it, but I've never really seen it described or defined before.

No, really. Listen, I'm not a /lit/ native, in fact I'm more of a /k/ regular myself. However, I am in the midst of writing for an unrelated project and who else do I have to trust but you guys?

That's a really big question anon. It's not really something anyone could address in a single post. Quality prose writing requires mastery of grammar, correct language, the effective use of description, dialogue that isn't complete shit. Apart from just saying "here's a bunch of books on how2writegud" it's probably better if you post some of your work over in the /crit/ thread and people will tear your shit up....I mean provide valuable & constructive feedback.

Not OP, but similar question. What about good story-writing/telling?
