    What does it feel like when writing?

    I do operate in a similar sense where I picture the story going as if it were an Anime or a Manga, I picture the reactions and art styles of my characters, the epic panels, though when we get to a fight scene. I step into the set as if I was a director with the characters being actors. I picture...

    What writing advice helped you the most? or didn't?

    I guess the best advice for writing, is the same advice for advices in life in general: "Advices are like clothes, try them on, but only keep the ones that fit you." So with writing I realized that I hate editing beyond help. So the advice of writing drafts and polishing later hurt my...

    Authors, do you have any favorite characters besides the MC?

    In Voidlight the two main characters are a Devil and a Heroine, banished to become normal humans, in a modern world setting. And they have a 5'2" gremlin girl coworker who can't stop teasing them for being awkward without knowing she's poking fun at two holy war veterans.

    Psychopath in fantasy.

    There is the Redo of Healer Anime, the Mc goes back in time in a revenge quest against those who hurt him. And was one of the most controversial Anime during its release. That Mc is as psychopathic and sociopathic as can be.

    As an author, do you promote your culture through fiction?

    I don't really promote my culture. I started writing fiction partly to escape the culture I grew up in, since it felt like the opposite of the stories and values I gravitated toward, so I never fully integrated. That said, I think it reflects in a slightly bleaker lens of the world at times...

    How do you rate your own action scenes?

    Action is honestly the most important and fun part of any story for me and it's where I invest most of my thoughts on when writing, the actual choreography is my favorite part. I wouldn't be able to rate myself because I simply try to aim for the best quality I can hope to achieve with my...

    Are You Plotter or Panther?

    I'm a panther in the sense that I'm a cat. But as a writer, beyond an overthinker, I didn't even write the prologue of my story until I had a cohesive plot of how does it end at volume 20 or so. Now if I could just push through the perfectionism. :sweat_smile:

    Fun fact, those numbers are also Miku-sama's numbers~ 39 can be read as Mi-ku in Japanese hence why that's Miku day and her number wordplay (goroawase) :D

    What makes you love the fantasy genre?

    The part of fantasy being one of our ways to express our thoughts and even touch on delicate subjects of human society while keeping it ethical truly is a powerful element hidden within the genre, but after all they are truly playgrounds to explain so many interesting ideas. For me: 1. The...

    Villian Origin Story Novels

    In my story Voidlight the one of the two main characters is a demon that devoured countless people, Volume 4 or 5 will talk about the backstory of them and how he became the strongest most feared demon and how she became the warrior strong enough to stop him! I'm just about wrapping up Volume 2...

    Recommendations Can you recommend one fiction title that sticks out in your mind after reading it many years ago?

    I've always said that my one undisputed favorite fiction in all of the world is Togashi Yoshihiro's Hunter x Hunter. The world he made where humanity can only strive on ingenuity, countless of mind games in the form of scams, traps, magic beasts, complex techniques was something that...

    As an author, how do you feel as an author killing off such a significant character?

    I would honestly only ever consider killing off a main character if I'm already aiming to write a tragedy. I think the main cast tends to be so important that it feels broken if any of them dies for good. It'd be like eliminating a Mugiwara. The damage would be irreparable. But when talking...

    What motivates you to keep writing your book?

    I just have a story that have thought for so long that I truly treasure and want to share and hear what people think about. It's a bit hard because I want it to be perfect. For every joke to land to become successful, but most importantly, I want my characters to see the ending to their stories.

    Writing Action Openings

    What a wonderful video! So very insightful! Very much appreciated! It does leave me a bit confused as to how my story Voidlight might stand though... on one hand its technically an action opening scene. But I do include about 600 words of exposition and world setting, and due to some of my...

    As an author, how do you feel when writing villains who commit crimes or immoral acts?

    One thing I enjoy in the writing process is letting villain characters go completely unhinged. Exploring their depravity and having them commit large-scale atrocities or displays of overwhelming power is fascinating to write. In a way, it makes their eventual defeat feel more satisfying, but...

    Dear Readers; How much "RPG" do you like in your LitRPG's?

    I honestly would have loved for a real approach heavy on the rpg where all the numbers mattered and math always checked out, but after reading my fair share I realized that there isn't one that goes as far as keep track of everything as an rpg game how I originally hoped for. But now that I...

    Simple Elemental Magic

    I beyond love Darkness. Its the element that has always resonated the most with me. (edgy kid here, watch out :blob_ghost:) Though I feel that its mostly never used in stories as awesome as I want it to be, for real, I can only mention Black Clover where I have truly loved the Darkness and...
