Welcome to my compendium of Literary Pieces!

In this thread I will keep a repertoire of my pieces thusfar completed. I appreciate any constructive criticism you can come up with, but I would appreciate you not censuring my pieces.

Patience is a must within this thread, especially concerning the frequency of promulgation, because I prefer 'quality over quantity'. The one exception to this rule is exhortation including suggestions for possible plots, storylines, characters, etc.

Without further ado, I adduce Yrolg’s Omnibus!

6 - FAQ
QUESTION: Did you participate in ____ contest?
ANSWER: I have participated in and been a finalist in every story contest from 2008 until the Armies of Gielinor competition, which I did not compete in out of deference for my win in the previous. I have made various placements since.
QUESTION: Who are your favourite authors?
ANSWER: I hesitate to make an exhaustive list, but Edgar Allan Poe definitely tops the roster. I also like the Brontë sisters, Charles Dickens, and Victor Hugo. Contemporary authors I like are Margaret Weis, Scott McGough, Wallie Lamb, and Christina Schwartz. My favourite literary style is the French-English Victorian.
QUESTION: Why do you insist on using such complex vocabulary?
ANSWER: It is my own vernacular. As you can tell from the authors I listed above, I have a particular affinity for complex styles, prolix, and verbosity. Naturally this carries over into my own works.
QUESTION: What is your writing process?
ANSWER: For short stories and poems, I go by freehand. This means that I don't write a rough draft -- the first version is, for all intensive purposes, the final version. I call this process dynamic editing because I edit while I write, sentence by sentence and paragraph by paragraph. Normally I don't have a set plot that I want to write about, but I do try to have an idea or theme. Once I'm finished writing the piece, I go back and check for typos and inconsistencies; if there are none, I try to leave it at that.
For longer pieces I like to write out an abstract on the plot and characters, using it as a rubric to be filled. I oftentimes stray and still employ many dynamic editing techniques in this format because the outline can only go so far as to the minutia of a narrative. I, however, often go over previous sections of longer works and edit them arbitrarily.
