    Fans of The Boys.

    Wait, there's a season 2 out? Oh, I guess I need to make more time ... Anyway, I really liked season 1 especially for the way it subverted some common superhero tropes while at the same time showing some (relatively?) realistic stuff regarding corporations, corruption etc. It's a good example...

    What genre tropes are you subverting in your story?

    Well, I never set out to subvert any specific tropes, but it sort of happens since I'm doing my own thing with the cultivation genre. Off the top of my head, tropes I'm subverting for the xianxia/cultivation and transmigration genre: The MC is originally from the fantasy world, and was...

    Which is better: Pineapple on Pizza, or Pizza on your Pineapples?

    Pineapple on pizza, of course! I haven't tried the other one but that would probably get messy. :blob_frown:

    Free Reviews: Since I want some tick of inspiration.

    I'd love a review, too. Thanks a lot! I'd especially like feedback on the plot and characters, since I'm confident in grammar and style.

    Setting of fantasy world

    Realistically, we're (most of us) hobby authors and can't always do extensive research. But I agree that a basic respect for other cultures we use should be there. Even if you're just creating your own societies inspired by them, at least try to make sure it doesn't come across as insulting...

    Drop your links and view counts.

    My story, Reverse Reincarnation, has only 6.8k views here, even if it's currently 230 pages. Maybe I should have done more marketing.

    Descriptive Writing And Style.

    Stylistically, I'd recommend that you try to avoid adverbs and adjectives and replace them with verbs where you can. Not at all costs, though. Also, look for synonyms for words (there are online thesaurus websites) and try to change your vocabulary up a bit and avoid repeated words, just don't...

    PATREON COULD DISSAPPEAR

    Yeah, sorry for my part, I realized that just now, too. Back on topic. I think the most important takeaway for authors reading this is that there is some controversy, and it's possible - although people disagree over how likely it is - that Patreon could be affected. Perhaps it makes sense to...

    PATREON COULD DISSAPPEAR

    Sorry, there were more quotes I wanted to reply to, but this is already getting too large. As someone from Germany who's interested in our history, reading the comparisons thrown around here is, bluntly, sickening. I've been to a concentration camp memorial. It's not something you easily...

    Crossing Gender Mentality

    Of course, everyone's an individual. If you know how to write good characters, that's almost universal. But there are differences, often subtle. I usually get a feeling for if a female character was written by a man, there's just something a little off about it (often, not always). This is...

    Military Academy/Noble Related Classes Help?

    I think it depends on what time period this is set in, or what time period it resembles. If there's a kind of 'military academy' at all, it probably isn't middle ages, right? Maybe take a look at what happened for 18th or 19th century military. I think most of the officers there were from the...

    When Your Character Greets an Old Friend

    I wouldn't call it paranoid exactly, but she's definitely cautious and cool-headed, and the transmigration did affect her. Interesting to read everyone's answers. It looks like there are less 'normal people' than not.
