    Multiple stories at the same time

    I’ve currently got a story that is my attempt to be more serious (I mean it still has a harem and a system, but I’m keeping the harem smol and trying to keep things reasonable and characterized) and one that is smutty and frequently sociopathic in the same vein as my first story ever posted...

    Angels

    I don’t have any angels of my own, so I’ll instead share angels from a story I’ve read. In the story Pact by Wildbow, angels are magical beings associated with creation and refinement. They exist to create more matter and make things generally better. They are in direct opposition to Demons, who...

    Killing Young Masters in Xianxia world

    We need the young masters to be slaughtered by a self insert power fantasy isekai protagonist with a harem. He was reading xianxia web novels while walking across the street and was hit by truck kun. His powers work by passively draining the personality from any attractive woman that he meets...

    Rate this man's power level

    If we assume he’s actually responsible for the plot of the various pieces of media he is prominently featured in, he’s much stronger. The ability to seduce women THAT HARD when they are in perfectly happy relationships, to the point where they are willing to vocally denigrate someone they loved...

    Somewhat disheartening

    Yeah I just overtly write fanfiction. So I both have and have not done something like this.

    This is Awkward...

    I actually love the idea of this being your ice breaker. 10/10. Unironically do it.

    This is Awkward...

    Walk up to the most attractive person of your preferred gender you can find, and give them a long and rambling summary of your story. Shift into long side tangents about your creative process and any related concepts that spring to mind. It probably won’t work but if it does, they are a keeper.

    Writing How do you write a dream scene

    First you need to write an entire novel that is at least marginally better than your primary storyline, or at least caters to slightly different interests. Mark your primary novel as having gone on hiatus. Present the dream sequence as its own story. Abruptly cut it off. THEN do as Omnifarious...

    What are your occupation right now

    Built digitally in 3d on a program called Cabinetvision, then exported as 2d images from multiple angles.

    What are your occupation right now

    I do shop sketches and price quote estimates for a kitchen cabinet specialist who started his own business. We cater to rich people who want their kitchens designed and installed by an independent artisan but also have about a 20% chance of completely changing the entire design midway through...

    The truly and absolutely amazing experience of courting the hateful and spitful woman known as luck in writing.

    It’s a prompt, not a straight jacket. If you roll and the result doesn’t inspire a scene that works within your greater framework, then that’s an unfortunate roll that you’ll need to scrap. Give it a few minutes of thought before you reroll of course, but using the dice is a tool to help move...

    Does building a lore book counts as writing?

    Is it writing? Yes. Is it end product? No. Is it easy to end up making a lorebook full of irrelevant details as a form of procrastination when you don’t feel like working on the narrative? Yes. Is it a bad thing to know a bunch of random minor details and backstory elements that you can weave...

    Would your MC’s agree with Magneto from Marvel comics

    Emrys would get the idea, but think it short sighted. Especially in a world like the Marvel Universe where non-mutant superhumans are actually pretty common, mutants don’t have so much of an advantage that they can steamroll everyone else. Instead, he should do what the real Jews did: take over...

    Is it worth it?

    My weekly updates are even shorter than that (about 3k) and people still seem to enjoy them. Not as many as when I managed around 9-10k a week, but that led to burnout. I’m not doing this professionally. I don’t have quotas. I write because making things brings me joy.

    What do you think of Gaming companies losing Billions?

    The Games industry has collapsed multiple times, and it’s easier than ever to get a finished (or unfinished…) Indy game to consumers thanks to platforms like Steam. Great games will rise to the top, and the poorly thought out cash grabs will continue to choke the life and credibility out of...

    Weak to Strong vs Overpowered Characters

    OP feels so much better when it’s earned imo. That said, as long as there is room to grow you can still get some progression and growth in. Guy who can easily beat up goblins growing into the overdeity of the cosmos still grew in power and if it was written well he had some troubles along the...

    For the first time in my life I am faced with... homophobia???

    God knows no borders and neither does Lloyd’s trolling.

    For the first time in my life I am faced with... homophobia???

    Honestly I kinda love how tepid this is. Like. If he harasses you that’s one thing, but literally showing up to just be like “yo I noticed you had a lot of geh content. I don’t think Jesus is ok with that, and it would make me happy if you converted to my faith. Or don’t. I’m not a cop.” is...

    What do you think about a twist on a familiar trope that completely changes its fundamental essense?

    So to be clear, are you asking about something that A. Is called x in universe but bears no actual resemblance to the assumptions that your readers will make when hearing x in any way B. Is called x in universe but the people in universe are just plain *wrong* about what xes are in the same...
