We are used to the classical model of parallel worlds: worlds that are identical in almost everything but differ in some small detail, while being completely isolated from one another and fully self-contained. But what if this is not the case at all? Imagine that you decide to have lunch at a...

There are two perspectives on any work: how it is seen by the reader, and how it is seen by the author. A person who decides to write their own work while remaining mentally in the position of a reader can genuinely burn themselves out trying to entertain another reader by meticulously...

I’ll explain it step by step: there’s a war, soldiers are needed, the military check documents of people on the street — if you’re healthy, they grab you and drag you off to war. Men hide, pay huge bribes, cross mountains on foot in winter to escape the country. And I just keep going to work as...

Wait, hold on — do I have messy hair and horn-rimmed glasses? That changes everything (no).

I’m figuring out whether my name is Clevatess. If it is — I keep chilling. If not, then yeah, that’s a situation. I’ll have to do something to show up in a sequel or a spin-off. Banging your head against plot armor is a pointless exercise.

I’ve made several small visual novels. But my experience won’t really help you. They were non-commercial projects where I acted as both writer and artist, and I managed to find programmers and musicians to work with me. With a more serious project, things didn’t go smoothly, though I still found...

1.I think not. I’ve developed my own level of depression and mental disorder that allows me, at times, to write quite original messages. 2. My entire conscious life has been spent reading and analyzing what I’ve read — books, anonymous imageboards, chats in MMORPGs. I admire the prose of Nabokov...

I tried generating video with AI. It looks promising.But the site doesn’t accept media from Twitter.:oops:

I have a small library at home. Did you throw the books into the trash after reading them?
