    What’s fun when ‘Reincarnated as a Monster’?

    Personally, I don't see the point of a monster MC who reincarnated or transformed, who acts just like any other monster. That's just more of the same. There's no real surprise or interesting factor to them. Worse, it also feels unnatural or like a poor characterization if their actions are just...

    Which novel/s is/are your hate read?

    1. Azarinth Healer. Towards chapter 200, I didn't know why I even ever started and cut it. The most upsetting where the characters. Especially bad was that one "betrayal by her friend that happened for no actual reason. Yet, a total trainwreck is the MC. The MC is a genocidal maniac. Culling...

    What are your some of the most hated tropes?

    Actually, I prefer female protagonists, and am usually disappointed if I get a man in disguise. Especially, if they take me for an idiot by selling the plot.

    What are your some of the most hated tropes?

    The Isekai protagonist is a psychopath who has no qualms about killing a person. Protagonist doesn't behave like a human being. Story shows clear political agenda. Gender Bender that exists solely for the tag, but otherwise doesn't matter. Gender Bender without body dysphoria, where MC directly...

    Editing Rewriting An Older Story, Need Tips

    Maybe instead of Superhero go just superhuman? People gain powers, but most aren't gunghoo about doing social service. Society has to make an effort to have a system that can put them to use, according to their powers. And then a formally strong status comes that doesn't actually have the level...

    Poverty theme stories

    Alchemitization on RR was the best I have ever read in this regard. Sadly discontinued (why are authors doing that to us?!!).

    Tell us About Your Story Lore

    Some kind of disposition in this fantasy world leads to young girls getting transformed into powerful monsters at every corner.

    Made two accounts probably

    If you click on your profile in the upper right, there is a partion "Signature". Click on it, and there you can attach links just like below mine.

    Ashes and Thunder

    The Webtoon Cydonia Shattering had "Sand and Cinder". That was quite fun.

    Writing I think I wrote myself into a corner

    Just by knowing what is written in a book, would he be actually able to apply it? Just because he knows the content, he doesn't have to be intelligent enough to make heads of anything complicated. I could as well read a book about nuclear thermodynamics, and wouldn't be able to build a nuke...

    I will draw your OC or character

    No pressure. If you actually get to it, I'll be happy, but I don't put you on the spot to deliver. Would be just a nice little extra to brighten my day.

    I will draw your OC or character

    I mean, it's her true form. She's basically a blob that assumes the form of a girl. Yet there wouldn't be any parts to see, as she simply lacks them, and doesn't bother/isn't good enough to form details like nethers. In the story, she often assumes a full-body cloak with a mask (at first a...

    I will draw your OC or character

    For real?! Like, for free? Damn, I'd really love to see my OCs in an anime style. I'd like to see Shari, from my story Slime Girl. She started out as a red-haired tomboy (shorter hair ear till neck length) of 17 years, but then got transformed into a blue slime (I want the slime). She's rather...

    Its not LitRPG, how to call it.

    For a more classic western version of your concept, I recommend a look into Dungeon scholar on RoyalRoad. That one had a skill-based society, but no stats. It was pretty interesting how things interacted and might be very good reference (yet it's discontinued).

    What is the most unusual but grounded martial art you've created and\or used in a novel?

    Guess that doesn't count, but in my fantasy stories, there are beings with liquid bodies. They can send a wave from one point of their body to the other side, and accelerate it continuously till it reaches the contact point, which basically sends out a kinetic shock that sends most opponents...

    Describe your MC in one sentence

    An accidental cosmic being that is way over her head with her power.

    How do you explain "magic"?

    Personally, I find that the law of conservation of energy should somehow still exist. This means the fireball needs an energy source. Either by equal exchange from somewhere else, or through some inner power the caster had to stock up on first.

    Why a Story Needs a Primary Antagonist (and how to find them)

    My stories are basically pure chaos. The main theme is that the MCs get turned into creatures and need to deal with it. The plot follows. While situations naturally revolve around this most pressing point, I wouldn't exactly call it the focus of the happenings. They are the main influence, but...

    Why a Story Needs a Primary Antagonist (and how to find them)

    Hmm, my stories are going well, and this without an actual antagonist. Rather, it's usually a general situation of conflict. Particular, I'd mention here my story Formicea (as it's the only book I basically completed). While there is a war in the background, the enemies are at best just that...

    Requesting tips for cultivation system

    A cultivation story whose system I found very intriguing was a post-apocalypse, with zombies. Both zombies, magical beasts, and some humans could gain elemental powers that would allow them to use a certain kind of magic, sometimes with even extremely exotic effects and things that may benefit...
