    I've self-published more than 20 books and short stories but the last time went so badly thanks to some Amazon bot that I got anxiety at the thought of doing it again today :blob_blank: It's about darn time I woman up though and get back into publishing :blob_pout:

    Ah, well, I guess killing off random side characters that couldn't even get a name wouldn't have the same impact :blob_hmm:

    Haha, I could but I usually just add it in when I finally realize that I'm definitely not getting around it anymore. I should edit it in, in the previous chapters whenever I get around to a full edit though :blob_hmm:

    *new side character appears* Me: Ah, they don't need a name! They'll be gone soon enough ~ *10 chapters later* Me: Maybe I should have given them a name :blob_blank: Does it make sense to give them one now? Maybe they'll stay around for longer ... :blob_hmm:

    Yeah, that's the good part. Thankfully, the characters' names were pretty close to the start so it didn't take much time. I renamed the wrong ones so by the time I get around to editing it, I won't be confused again ~ :blob_melt:

    Just realized I'm an idiot: I abbreviate titles for my recordings cause I'm lazy. When I scrolled through them, I suddenly saw some I couldn't identify. What's TDN? And what's TDK? Well, turns out they are the same. I just can't type and now 'night' apparently begins with 'K' :blobrofl: And...

    Uh ... no, I touched a literal lightbulb because it stopped working. Again. I've been at this for at least a year but it somehow always revives after headpats. Not sure why either :blob_hmm: I do like your interpretation though! :blob_melt: *huggles Nahrenne*

    Oh, if you have a lightbulb that dims or stops shining at all but that hasn't burned through, you can try patting it on the head and it may start to shine again. No guarantees that it'll work and you cannot sue me if it goes wrong :blobrofl:

    How long have y'all been writing? What have you improved on?

    I started writing seriously early in 2012. Before that, I dabbled a bit but that was an on-again-off-again thing so I never really count it. Since starting for real, everything has seen at least some improvements but the most obvious would probably be weaving a more compelling story. Like, I...

    I remember there was a forum post on NU once discussing which titles seemed "BL". Guess we do have some stereotypes there :blob_sweat:

    I personally have a BL novel with a woman on the cover so there are one or two but the title gives the game away. Without anything hinting at it, it's strange though. Glad to know I'm not the only one with such an experience though!

    "I thought this story had a system!" Title: *doesn't mention a system* Cover: *doesn't show anything system-related* Synopsis: *doesn't include any references to systems, tasks, or similar* First chapter: *doesn't mention a system* Whatever made you think there was a system involved? :blob_hmm:

    Which english to use?

    I think I read once that Americans sometimes refuse to read stuff written in other English but whatever survey they based that statement on might have been biased. Anyway, for everyone else, I don't think it matters much. A lot of non-native speakers might not even be able to tell the...

    :blob_blank: I ... didn't. I only ever used mods on Skyrim. Ah, now I'm conflicted. Like, to me, if he's straight, he's straight. Feels kinda wrong to change his sexuality somehow even if it's just a game. And I first need to finish Origins before I can do the other ones. I'm a bad player though...
