After reading on webnovel I don't I don't find a moral story for children so this is it

Each of us heard some famous stories which teaches us the moral value. Does these moral values help in corporate culture?
just read few of them in new style.

After the Norman conquest of England in 1066, the written form of the Anglo-Saxon language became less common. Under the influence of the new aristocracy, French became the standard language of courts, parliament, and polite society. As the invaders integrated, their language and literature mingled with that of the natives, and the Norman dialects of the ruling classes became Anglo-Norman. From then until the 12th century, Anglo-Saxon underwent a gradual transition into Middle English. Political power was no longer in English hands, so that the West Saxon literary language had no more influence than any other dialect and Middle English literature was written in the many dialects that corresponded to the region, history, culture, and background of individual writers.[19]

In this period religious literature continued to enjoy popularity and Hagiographies were written, adapted and translated: for example, The Life of Saint Audrey, Eadmer's (c. 1060 – c. 1126).[20] At the end of the 12th century, Layamon in Brut adapted the Norman-French of Wace to produce the first English-language work to present the legends of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table.[21] It was also the first historiography written in English since the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle.


Middle English Bible translations, notably Wycliffe's Bible, helped to establish English as a literary language. Wycliffe's Bible is the name now given to a group of Bible translations into Middle English that were made under the direction of, or at the instigation of, John Wycliffe. They appeared between about 1382 and 1395.[22] These Bible translations were the chief inspiration and cause of the Lollard movement, a pre-Reformation movement that rejected many of the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church.

Another literary genre, that of Romances, appears in English from the 13th century, with King Horn and Havelock the Dane, based on Anglo-Norman originals such as the Romance of Horn (ca. 1170),[23] but it was in the 14th century that major writers in English first appeared. These were William Langland, Geoffrey Chaucer and the so-called Pearl Poet, whose most famous work is Sir Gawain and the Green Knight.[24]

Langland's Piers Plowman (written ca. 1360–87) or Visio Willelmi de Petro Plowman (William's Vision of Piers Plowman) is a Middle English allegoricalnarrative poem, written in unrhymed alliterative verse.[25]

Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is a late 14th-century Middle English alliterative romance. It is one of the better-known Arthurian stories of an established type known as the "beheading game". Developing from Welsh, Irish and English tradition, Sir Gawain highlights the importance of honour and chivalry. Preserved in the same manuscript with Sir Gawayne were three other poems, now generally accepted as the work of the same author, including an intricate elegiac poem, Pearl.[26] The English dialect of these poems from the Midlands is markedly different from that of the London-based Chaucer and, though influenced by French in the scenes at court in Sir Gawain, there are in the poems also many dialect words, often of Scandinavian origin, that belonged to northwest England.[26]


Middle English lasted until the 1470s, when the Chancery Standard, a London-based form of English, became widespread and the printing press started to standardise the language. Chaucer is best known today for The Canterbury Tales. This is a collection of stories written in Middle English (mostly in verse although some are in prose), that are presented as part of a story-telling contest by a group of pilgrims as they travel together from Southwark to the shrine of St Thomas Becket at Canterbury Cathedral. Chaucer is a significant figure in the development of the legitimacy of the vernacular, Middle English, at a time when the dominant literary languages in England were still French and Latin.

At this time, literature in England was being written in various languages, including Latin, Norman-French, and English: the multilingual nature of the audience for literature in the 14th century is illustrated by the example of John Gower (c. 1330 – October 1408). A contemporary of William Langland and a personal friend of Chaucer, Gower is remembered primarily for three major works: the Mirroir de l'Omme, Vox Clamantis, and Confessio Amantis, three long poems written in Anglo-Norman, Latin and Middle English respectively, which are united by common moral and political themes.[27]

Significant religious works were also created in the 14th century, including those of Julian of Norwich (ca. 1342 – ca. 1416) and Richard Rolle. Julian's Revelations of Divine Love (about 1393) is believed to be the first published book written by a woman in the English language.[28]

A major work from the 15th century is Le Morte d'Arthur by Sir Thomas Malory, which was printed by Caxton in 1485.[29]This is a compilation of some French and English Arthurian romances, and was among the earliest books printed in England. It was popular and influential in the later revival of interest in the Arthurian legends.[30]

Medieval theatre

In the Middle Ages, drama in the vernacular languages of Europe may have emerged from enactments of the liturgy. Mystery plays were presented in the porches of cathedrals or by strolling players on feast days. Miracle and mystery plays, along with morality plays(or "interludes"), later evolved into more elaborate forms of drama, such as was seen on the Elizabethan stages. Another form of medieval theatre was the mummers' plays, a form of early street theatre associated with the Morris dance, concentrating on themes such as Saint George and the Dragon and Robin Hood. These were folk tales re-telling old stories, and the actors travelled from town to town performing these for their audiences in return for money and hospitality.[31]

Mystery plays and miracle plays are among the earliest formally developed plays in medieval Europe. Medieval mystery plays focused on the representation of Bible stories in churches as tableaux with accompanying antiphonal song. They developed from the 10th to the 16th century, reaching the height of their popularity in the 15th century before being rendered obsolete by the rise of professional theatre.[32]

There are four complete or nearly complete extant English biblical collections of plays from the late medieval period. The most complete is the York cycle of 48 pageants. They were performed in the city of York, from the middle of the 14th century until 1569.[33] Besides the Middle English drama, there are three surviving plays in Cornish known as the Ordinalia.[34]

Having grown out of the religiously based mystery plays of the Middle Ages, the morality play is a genre of medieval and early Tudor theatrical entertainment, which represented a shift towards a more secular base for European theatre.[35] Morality plays are a type of allegory in which the protagonist is met by personifications of various moralattributes who try to prompt him to choose a godly life over one of evil. The plays were most popular in Europe during the 15th and 16th centuries.[36]

The Somonyng of Everyman (The Summoning of Everyman) (c. 1509 – 1519), usually referred to simply as Everyman, is a late 15th-century English morality play. Like John Bunyan's allegory Pilgrim's Progress (1678), Everyman examines the question of Christian salvation through the use of allegorical characters.[

The question was, "How many crows are there in the city?"

Birbal immediately smiled and went up to Akbar. He announced the answer; he said there were twenty-one thousand, five hundred and twenty-three crows in the city. When asked how he knew the answer, Birbal replied, "Ask your men to count the number of crows. If there are more, then the relatives of the crows must be visiting them from nearby cities. If there are fewer, then the crows from our city must be visiting their relatives who live outside the city." Pleased with the answer, Akbar presented Birbal with a ruby and pearl chain.

3. The Boy Who Cried Wolf

￼

In a village, lived a carefree boy with his father. The boy's father told him that he was old enough to watch over the sheep while they graze in the fields. Every day, he had to take the sheep to the grassy fields and watch them as they graze. However, the boy was unhappy and didn't want to take the sheep to the fields. He wanted to run and play, not watch the boring sheep graze in the field. So, he decided to have some fun. He cried, "Wolf! Wolf!" until the entire village came running with stones to chase away the wolf before it could eat any of the sheep. When the villagers saw that there was no wolf, they left muttering under their breath about how the boy had wasted their time. The next day, the boy cried once more, "Wolf! Wolf!" and, again, the villagers rushed there to chase the wolf away.

The boy laughed at the fright he had caused. This time, the villagers left angrily. The third day, as the boy went up the small hill, he suddenly saw a wolf attacking his sheep. He cried as hard as he could, "Wolf! Wolf! Wolf!", but not a single villager came to help him. The villagers thought that he was trying to fool them again and did not come to rescue him or his sheep. The little boy lost many sheep that day, all because of his foolishness.

But, the fox licked up his soup quickly.

The stork was angry and upset, but she didn't show her anger and behaved politely. To teach a lesson to the fox, she then invited him for dinner the next day. She too served soup, but this time the soup was served in two tall narrow vases. The stork devoured the soup from her vase, but the fox couldn't drink any of it because of his narrow neck. The fox realised his mistake and went home famished.

Her father explained, "All three items were put in the same circumstances. See how they've responded differently." He said that the potato turned soft, the egg turned hard, and the tea leaves changed the colour and taste of the water. He further said, "We are all like one of these items. When adversity calls, we respond exactly the way they do. Now, are you a potato, an egg, or tea leaves?"

All the other plants in the garden tried to stop the rose from bullying the cactus, but the rose was too swayed by its own beauty to listen to anyone.

One summer, a well in the garden dried up and there was no water for the plants. The rose slowly began to wilt. The rose saw a sparrow dip its beak into the cactus for some water. The rose then felt ashamed for having made fun of the cactus all this time. But because it was in need of water, it went to ask the cactus if it could have some water. The kind cactus agreed, and they both got through summer as friends.

￼

Nasir, a small boy, found a crystal ball behind the banyan tree of his garden. The tree told him that it would grant him a wish. He was very happy and he thought hard, but unfortunately, he could not come up with anything he wanted. So, he kept the crystal ball in his bag and waited until he could decide on his wish.

Days went by without him making a wish but his best friend saw him looking at the crystal ball. He stole it from Nasir and showed it to everyone in the village. They all asked for palaces and riches and lots of gold, but could not make more than one wish. In the end, everyone was angry because no one could have everything they wanted. They became very unhappy and decided to ask Nasir for help. Nasir wished that everything would go back to how it was once – before the villagers had tried to satisfy their greed. The palaces and gold vanished and the villagers once again became happy and content.

Moral of the Story

Money and wealth do not always bring happiness.

11. A Bundle of Sticks

￼

Once upon a time, three neighbours living in a village were having trouble with their crops. Each of the neighbours had one field, but the crops on their fields were infested with pests and were wilting. Every day, they would come up with different ideas to help their crops. The first one tried using a scarecrow in his field, the second used pesticides, and the third built a fence on his field, all to no avail.

One day, the village head came by and called the three farmers. He gave them each a stick and asked them to break it. The farmers could break them easily. He then gave them a bundle of three sticks, and again, asked them to break it. This time, the farmers struggled to break the sticks. The village head said, "Together, you are stronger and work better than you do it alone." The farmers understood what the village head was saying. They pooled in their resources and got rid of the pests from their fields.

Moral of the Story

There is strength in unity.

These Great Stories Are not written by me I just happened to remember them from childhood so I think why not post them.
 
English is not my mother language so sorry for mistakes

Short Inspirational stories are powerful reads;

The great thing about them is that they’re so easy to digest, and there’s always a moral at the end of the story.

Whether they’re true stories or not is another thing, as many of them are legends supposedly hundreds of years old.

However, the stories that I’m talking about are so powerful and inspirational that many of them really do get you thinking and even leave you speechless at times.

1. The Lion and the Mouse

DISCLAIMER: I am being particular wuth regards to english translated online novels.

I am not sure if it just me or if there are others like me. But as I have recounted already, I began my reading experience devouring books like a hungry predator looling out for any prey it could find.

But it did not take long for me to be able to flesh out the characteristics of stories that were somehow compatible with my line of thought of how a story should go.

So basically, albeit rare and hard to find, I came across stories and storytelling that I found coming closer to becoming, for me, really compelling, because of the way they present their characters, preference given to the main characters of course, not as these brash, easily agitated, justice sensitive, muscle-brained show-offs that only know how to fight, but as cunning, calculative, manipulative, and sensible communicators that are really goal oriented and do rarely ever stray from that goal. 

Yes, there are the occasional shootouts but that it is only to highlight the reality of the world that story, that it is not that forgiving to the weak. But beyond the fights, it is the negotiations, the leveraging and the compromises that really make up the meat of much of the, let us say, main character's interaction with the other inhabitants of the story's world.

It is also made much better because of how uneasy it becomes for the characters to navigate this type of world trying to survive and succeed, which to me is probably closer real storytelling than most I have so far, because of basically how hard it becomes for one character to discern the intentions of the characters he or she is interacting with.

It then no longer becomes a world that starkly makes you out to be either on this side or that, that you are good or you are evil, and that is black or it is white. Because it is a world that is full of grey, you become unsure of where you stand on, you question your choices, and your moral standing, you are neither on this side nor that, neither good nor evil, it is neither black nor white, and in this world nothing is for certain, and everything is up for grabs.

So astonishing are these stories characters from from anything I have read so for that it left me no choice but to put it in a whole new circle around which these stories revolve in, and i became hard-pressed to look away from those stories with that caliber of storytelling and have not found any other that could surpass theirs.

The story of a character's journey where their best of friends could turn out to be their greatest of adversaries, where snakes bide their time waiting to strike and lions do not stay on top forever, and when alliances rise and falter, and only their interests remains, and when nothing is for certain, and everything is up for grabs. I most definitely find the most fun of reading.

And I hope you do too.

What do you think? I would like to know your thoughts in the comments. Until then, peace.

Note: From this volume, I would use personal pronouns as it would be easier to convey what I want.
*************************************************************************************
We had shifted our house and here it feels boring, there are no kids in this cross, that we know and it is very boring spending the last few days of your summer vacation fighting with your sibling. Ameya is turning more stubborn and unruly and mom is least concerned about this. She has a smart mouth, not smart, over smart mouth. And I hate people who are over smart, can't help she is my sister.
If you ask me about my relationship with dad it had never been this worse, he keeps on barking and I am least bothered about it, but it hurts a lot, I have been crying every day before sleep, I have nightmares. I dreamed about me being killed by my dad.
I felt him holding my neck and drowning me underwater, I felt breathless, helpless, I wasn't able to wake up from the dream, I was sweating. My dad became a reason for my sleepless nights.
The next day he asked me what I had dreamt about and why I was crying? I lied, I told my dad that I didn't remember anything.
I thought that would hurt my dad, was it worth it? Me being concerned about what he will feel when he doesn't think twice before spatting hurtful words?
Yesterday he called me a bastard, if I was a bastard what was he? A bastards' dad? I wanted to say that out loud but I didn't dare to.
More than desperation what filled my heart was fear, I was feared by my dad who was one of the reasons I was here.
Everybody says I look like my dad, I wanted to deny that, I never wanted to become like him, neither by looks nor by attitude.
If this was told to me when I was ten, I would be happy that I look like my dad. I was my daddy's princess back then now I am my daddy's bastard.
How ironic is it?
Now that I look back I was blinded, he never was the dad that I thought that he was. I could hear him abusing my mom mentally when I was three. I didn't notice that because it was an everyday happening, now when it was directed to me that is why I can notice it.
Why did dad like boys more than girls? Do boys have horns? Or an extra tail? What was so special about being a guy?
Now that she thought about it, boys were luckier than girls. They are not judged by the clothes they wear, they can safely go out at nights, they didn't have to leave their parents after marriage, they didn't have to do house chores.
How she wished she was a guy, believe it or not, I have never gone to any of my friend's house except for Athena's and Adwaith's. Because they shared the same language and were neighbours for almost four years her parents allowed her to go to their house only on Sunday's that too if her dad agrees.
Girls always had a lack of freedom compared to boys.
This new house is smaller compared to our previous one, this belongs to a very far away relative of ours. It's very difficult to define the relationship between the house owner and us. It's complicated.
We don't have a home of our own if you ask me why? Dad is not interested, he thinks there will be a day when money flows into our house, which is not happening soon. Mom has been pestering dad on this but he just shoos her away.
I was least concerned about this I just needed a roof to live whether it's my own or not. Maybe I had inherited this from dad.
As the school was about to open my dad pushed me into studies, the same branded books which we received last year. Can't they at least change the style of the textbooks, the maths text was as thick as my thighs, how am I going to pass this year?
I opened my English literature text the only subject I was interested in. From last year subjects were divided for us.
Science became - Biology, Chemistry and Physics.
Maths became - Arithmetic, Geometry and Algebra.
Social was - Geography, History and Civics.
This is the reason why Indians thought studying in ICSE school was great. Here kids are tortured from a young age. At the age of 11, we had 13 subjects to learn namely, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Hindi, Kannada, English Language, English Literature, Geography, History and Civics, Arithmetic, Algebra, Geometry, subjects like Computers, Gk, yoga and Moral science existed but for namesake, nobody in the school even studies those subjects.
I loved English literature, when I read stories and poems, I imagine the scenes simultaneously. I had written a story when I was ten, 'Goddess of the Moon', was its name. I had taken the story written sheets to my native only to lose it there, after that I never continued it. I had started writing songs when I was seven, my first written song was named 'Lollipop', the song was a conversation between a little girl and a lollipop, it was more like a poem. I had been greatly inspired by Robert Louis Stevenson, we had to learn his poems from our textbook.
His poems were for kids and made my imagination broad, you can rarely see kids interested in books these days but I was an exception. Reading books brought me joy and I have never read stories apart from the ones from my textbook.
Even though I had asked my parents to buy me some they never did, I didn't understand what their problem was. 
Was it because they didn't want to see me happy?

Ever wondered what an author's life will be? Ever wondered what is restricting her from achieving what she wants?
Ever wondered why she started writing?
This is a real-life story, the story of my life.
The story of a fifteen-year-old.
The story of Chaitzzz.

It was another "normal" day in the Writer's Discord Chatroom.

Murakami_Takai: Is this even a writer's channel? We have karaoke concerts in VC every day.

'We have talented authors that can sing. So why not?'

The crowd quieted down and the usual roleplay begins. 

Silent C1own: Don't assume fluffy's gender. DON'T YOU DARE ASSUME FLUFFY'S GENDER.

Elyon: I killed 3 cats before, killing one more won't make a difference. *looks at cat person*

[A/N: For the record I love cats. My cats died of natural deaths…*mumbles* mating season.]

Silent C1own: I've killed your kind before.

Elyon: *raises an eyebrow*

Silent C1own: I don't mind massacring a few thousand more before you were even created.

Elyon: Hmmp! You don't mind manicuring a thousand more? WOW! You must be some kind of masochist then.

Silent C1own: This old man was already killing people of greater power than the old Deus that created your kind.

Elyon: So you're telling me, that you're not only experienced in manicure but pedicure as well? Tsk tsk, you're a very talented person.

Silent C1own: tsk! tsk! Such ignorant children.

Elyon: Can you do hair rebonding? Maybe you can bleach your foes in the middle of battle?

Rianolinon: nyan~

Silent C1own: Do you even have holes for your beloved riku?

Rianolinon: holes? nyani?

Elyon: *looks at cat* *takes out a spork*

Rianolinon: nya nya? Why are u giving me weird look nya? Why do you have that out nya?

Silent C1own: *hugs sagiri*

Elyon: To better to see you, my dear. *walks closer to cat*

Rianolinon: Nya?

Silent C1own: *pulls sagiri away*

Rianolinon: *cats six sense activate*

Silent C1own: Don't come closer! Nya! Nya!!!

Rianolinon: nya nya nya! *runs away*

Elyon: Steamed buns filled with cat meat is a very popular dish.

Silent C1own: I'd sure like to dismantle you. How dare you eat our kind!?

Rianolinon: Nya! Humans are bad creature!

Elyon: You like to manicure me? By all means please do. I'd like a pedicure while you're at it.

Elyon: nya~ person. Won't nya give me a nya~ review?

Rianolinon: After this novel nya~

Elyon: Thx nya~

Rianolinon: I'm going to sleep nya~

Elyon: Later then nya~

Rianolinon: Remind me tomorrow nya~

Silent C1own: Goodnight sagiri.

Rianolinon: I have to stream some tournament matches tomorrow nya.

Elyon: Ok nya~

The roleplay for the day has ended. Some of the authors are busy writing their stories at this time of day, while others are lazing around and procrastinating as always.

Elyon: Where was I again? Oh yeah. Anyone interested in review swap just DM me. Thanks.

Double D: Review swaps are for desperate people!! *is a little desperate*

Elyon: *Acknowledge his desperation*

Double D: Lolz I don't review swap plus I'm brutally honest. If you are okay with me giving you a low rating, I'll review your story as long as you promise not to get back at me.

Elyon: Oh then in that case, feel free to roast mine. Just read the first 10 chapters though. As long as it's an honest review I can take the heat.

Double D: Most people would say no thanks after that Lmao.

Elyon: I'm not most people. I'm not scared.

Double D: *pensive emoticon*

MishaK: @Elyon Don't ask for his review unless you want to cry for next four days *sweat emoticon*

Double D: Gimme link Elyon.

Elyon: *gives the link*

A few moments later...

Double D: I can't review it Elyon *pensive emoticon*

Elyon: Thanks for the effort.

Double D: English is your second language. Right?

Elyon: Yes.

Double D: Yeah I figured. Don't worry about it. Keep writing. Best thing you can do Is read more books. You're writing will improve.

[A/N: Thinking back. I've learned a lot from my senior authors, especially those who are honest enough to say their thoughts without holding back.]

Double D: If English is your second language, there is a high likelihood that you're forming bad habits.

Namake: Yep.

Double D: If you read books with bad grammar.

MinxMean: Which is why I didn't read mtl.

Xandarx: I'm so used reading something directly from translate. Machine translate I mean.

'Me too. I've read too many machine translations of my favorite novels.'

Double D: Mtl is fine if English is your first language >.> you at least know it is crap. But, if your English is already mutilated then you might write like mtl after reading mtl *joy emoticon*

Xandarx: Then I'm fcked *dead emoticon*

'That makes the two of us haiz~'

Double D: So you can still be huge star especially if you're not bad ^_^

Xandarx: 17 more to 1000PS. My historical achievement *whoa emoticon*

'Wow that's a lot of Power Stones'

Double D: Oh that's a nice amount Xan. Lemme see your novel.

Xandarx: It's crap.

Double D: Can't be that bad with 1k ps and all our novels are crap. Just be a tiny doodoo!

Xandarx: Dm or here.

Double D: Put it in between < > and it won't embed.

Double D: Interesting that you implement harem >.> In a monogamous society. Is it a bunch of mistresses?

Xandarx: Hmm not yet harem though. I'm still thinking how to insert it.

Double D: It's labeled as such though >.>

Fantasyfemme: I mean, can people tell, from Ava Max's songs that she's a total yandere? All she has to do now is tattoo it to her forehead.

Alison35: Ava Max! So am I *sparkle emoticon* Sweet by Psycho.

Fantasyfemme: Sweet but pyscho/ So am I.

Alison35: Hahah.

Fantasyfemme: Some brilliant songs

Alison35: Same.

Double D: Ali agreed with you I guess >.>

Fantasyfemme: Ali is my unicorn. I have a lot of unicorns around here.


Double D: @Xandarx (R1973) I'm still surprised you have almost 200k views with 17 chapters. Must be a great plot >.> Oh sorry, I read 127k views as 172k views. Still a lot of views though

Xandarx: No great plot. It's the idea that attracts the reader. Like r18 novel. Like CEO, system, romance novel.

Double D: You don't have smut in there do you?

Xandarx: Nooo. Wtf.

Double D: Thank God. Well you do have harem tag. So, Idk man.

Xandarx: I don't even know how to write that.

MinxMean: *smug emoticon*

Double D: Plus most books with low chaps, high view count have smut. That's why I asked.

Xandarx: I don't even like smut.

[A/N: In general some authors believe that adding smut to their novels will make it popular.]

Double D: Amen brother.

Fantasyfemme: Dude should I go smut-ways?

Double D: As long as you're cool with losing the very little respect that you had fantasy Do it!

Fantasyfemme: It seems to attract readers.

Xandarx: Harem to attract the readers. Non-offense.

Double D: Harem loses readers too Xan.

Xandarx: Yeah. I know.

[A/N: Readers are pickier now compared to before. Some like harem tags while others prefer a more intimate relationship.]

Double D: People hate harem and love harem.

Fantasyfemme: The question about smut was purely because I feel like I'm missing an edge to my story and maybe if written well, can add some depth to the relationship between MC and ML. I mean, physical intimacy plays a big role in a relationship.

NixxxiE (sєʀєи∂ɨρɨтγ_ɑςє): @fantasyfemme It doesn't have to be written to make the story good.

Fantasyfemme: I've never written smut before, so I don't know where to start haha.

NixxxiE (sєʀєи∂ɨρɨтγ_ɑςє): Don't write it only to draw in readers.

Double D: See fantasy? The words of a smut-lover cannot be trusted *pensive emoticon* Come listen to your uncle Double D.

NixxxiE (sєʀєи∂ɨρɨтγ_ɑςє): @Double D your comments are unnecessary. I already said she can if she wants to and no if she doesn't and that it doesn't have to be written to make the story good. Why are you turning it against me? I'm giving her advice as an author. Smh.

Double D: @NixxxiE (sєʀєи∂ɨρɨтγ_ɑςє) smut lovers cannot be trusted! By giving her all the options, you've essentially gotten rid of all of them. Now she has no choice but to write nothing.

Fantasyfemme: @NixxxiE (sєʀєи∂ɨρɨтγ_ɑςє) yeah I see what you mean. I think I'm just going to keep writing and see how I feel about whether it really adds to the way the relationship develops.

Elyon: You forgot to add the moral lesson of the story.

Double D: Ah. That's right. How can I forget? Moral of the story is always listen to Double D!

Elyon: *walks out of the room*

Double D: Lolz

Elyon leaned back on his chair and digested the lessons that he learned today. He once again understood how hard it is to be an Author and write a story from scratch. It's a good thing that there's a group of people that share the same passion for writing.

You can ask them for tips and have them answer some of the questions that are stopping you from improving your writing style. The harsh words will be there. That is a given especially if you're looking for an honest review. You just have to charge it all to experience.

[A/N: In the end…to SMUT or not to SMUT? That is the question. LMAO!]
