BL Plot isn’t compelling/ need readers input
In the past, I’ve written many stories for sites like Wattpad, but as an art student I want to take my stories to the next level. Because this is more work than a traditional novel, I don’t want to make any mistakes on the plot. Currently, I’m aiming for character development. Some plot lines I’ve written involve Fantasy, crime and mystery, but all centered on a romantic relationship.
Could you share what are some of the greatest aspects of your favorite BLs so far.
I mean, characters or plot development, the art style or the way the story was formatted, the roles of the relationship, how much the engaged in sensual acts, favorite scenes, what annoys you, what you wish you saw more.
Literally anything works!

Honestly, I love stories where the characters have to overcome something they are facing before or during the romance. Personally it’s just the way I write, but I’m just obsessed with it haha I like seeing the character have actual feelings and emotions that aren’t all romance :) My biggest role of thumb when it comes to favorite novels or co......
