  • What if one day your childhood friend suddenly appears and 'wants to save you' from your current self (who is cold after being hit by the harshness of life) by demanding that you return to being the person who used to know as a kind, gentle and friendly person. How would you feel and respond?
    I want to write again but the cold makes me to become a sleeping beauty....?:blob_sleep:
    It's easier to complain and vent your frustrations on others than to address the root of the problem.

    If you hate AI art, then sue giant companies like Grok for freely providing AI art... instead of blaming niche authors who write for fun and don't make a dime from their writing.

    I published a complete manga about a decade ago, along with 6 - 7 coloured covers. I still use ai to generate art for my books because I want to focus my time on writing rather than drawing, and I don’t have much free time for hobbies anyway :blobsip:

    the arguments have run theior course, its just the same ground being covered, and gas gotten to be like politics. You already know who has an R or a D on their name, so you already know their position. There's no more point. They shoiuld just juke any thread aboiut that, as soon as they see it. Its already getting thread-locked, but if they locked them as soon as they started, people would get the hint.
    I love dark fantasy... not because I like darkness. But it allows us to explore sides of humanity that's often hidden.

    Furthermore, by contrasting the darkness of the world with humanity, we (readers) can better appreciate peace.

    It's called empathy for a min after that you will forget about it.

    Well, morality isn't built overnight... the author simply provides one medium for empathy through fiction. The rest is left to family, education, culture, and religion.

    I like dark imagery in movies, books amnd music. I also enjoy delicate beauty, but I like the powerful imagery of dark and combatting it.

    After 7 months, my fiction on SH finally has a recommendation in Similar Series, despite being recommended on my other fiction pages.

    Well, that's not bad, because my fiction is so subversive that a suitable recommendation candidate can only be found in the prequel series.
    Sleep when you're sleepy.
    Eat when you're hungry.
    Write when you have free time.
    It's simple but expensive...
    Since we only have 24 hours in a day.
    Well, I also thank to @Omarfaruq because he read and gave 3 ratings and 3 reviews in 3 different fictions voluntarily at SH.

    Dude, I didn't bribe you to write reviews, right?

    Well, my second FMC, Detective Clara, also remains kind, empathetic, and concerned about the suffering of others, even though she lives in a morally corrupt world. Her goal isn't to win... but to remain human. Hold on to your heart wherever you are... and you'll live as a human being.

    My goal is a little different, we are not the same.

    Whatever your goals... I hope you are well.
    Finally, after more than 7 months, my fiction has gained 2 organic ratings (average 4.5) on RR.

    Well, a small number but valuable considering a subversive fiction [Post-Apocalyptic Motherhood Dark Fantasy] especially if we just wait and don't rely on review swaps to increase the rating.

    By the way, it only increased by 1 rating but my fiction's rank rose from 40k to 33k. A simple achievement worth being grateful for.

    You should always be grateful for what you have.
    If you want to gauge the potential for reader engagement with your fiction, put yourself in the reader's shoes, not the author's.

    Not all readers are authors, and even if they are, it's only a small percentage.

    A fundamental authorial mistake is assuming that a work will be popular simply because it's well-written.

    Finally, like it or not, market research is important even though it is troublesome.

    You could read what you wrote out loud. That sometimes helps me catch where breaks in a sentence to breathe are needed too. :sweat_smile:

    Well, since vol 2 is finished, now I will narrate Alice (Chivalry Justice) against Marry (Bloody Justice).

    They both meet through Detective Clara (Conscience Justice) in vol 3.
    Marry wrapped her arms around her daughter from behind and rested her chin atop the small head.

    “Mommy?!”

    “Mama loves Caelan.”

    “Caelan loves Mommy too, hehe…”

    Caelan felt her hair grow wet.

    “Mommy… Caelan’s hair is wet.”

    “Sometimes rain falls inside the house, honey. Mama will hug Caelan.”

    “Mommy is the best in the whole world."

    Tears slipped through her lashes.

    Black Mist… Clara…

    Scene clip Vol 2 Chapter 94: Epilogue – Between Mist, Conscience, and Roses – Three Faces of Women Gazing at One Another.
    Finally... after days of burnout... the epilogue of volume 2 is finally finished. It's a bittersweet ending, with no winners, only wounds. However, at least there's still a small hope amidst the darkness.

    The epilogue is titled Vol 2 Chapter 94: "Between Mist, Conscience, and Roses – Three Faces of Women Gazing at One Another."
    hey. god still likes the irish, I see.
    The new book I started tossing up. Cover sailed through. wonder of all wonders, it showed up on a search by title. and, I finally got to see a chapter of mine in the updated list. almost like being a human being again.
    yay
    now, if i could just get some readers.
    I can see I'm going to have to "report" user Eldoria
    for? just being too damn sweet and cute.
    but seriously, I threw preface and 5 chapters of another book up
    yeah, once again. Can't search to find it, as usual? my updates don't appear so I can get clicks.
    is this place prejudiced against the Irish, or what.
    that's probably it. Always trying to keep the irish down.
    a story as old as time itself, *kek*
    I read this...
    Vol 1 Chapter 1: Prologue – An Executioner of Blood Who Became Mommy

    you write in what is clearly this modern webnovel style. short chapters. a single direct sentence though well formed can pass for a paragraph. two sentences, more then enough. It was shocking to me to first encounter this WN style I call it, but I got used to seeing it.

    Well, I'm just adapting to the platform. If this writing style is used for a paperback book, then customers might get upset because the pages are filled with blank lines instead of content. Lol

    you would have to ask to read a chapter of mine. and i write in what i think of as "a paperback I would have bought and read" style, IE trad pub. And yes, I am aware most webnovel fans simply detest it. disclaimer thus delivered. so don't feel obligated.
