    Yes, yes, Origins! :blob_melt: I just restarted because I had to pause my first playthrough a year ago and couldn't remember shit when I recently picked it up again and was just stumbling about. Apparently, Alister's sexuality was part of the shit I couldn't remember :blobrofl:

    True :blob_blank: I'm actually kind of surprised that the longest only got up to 30k. I was afraid I'd have all of them morph into novels of their own :blobrofl:

    That depends on your definition of short story I'd guess :blob_sweat: The shortest is below 6k but the longest so far (that's the autumn one) is almost 30k. The summer story is somewhere in the middle and I guess winter will be similar. They all have a small-ish cast though and only one or two...

    @KoyukiMegumi I do! It's for a collection with one story per season and elements I relate to them. E.g., the autumn story has a witch MC, someone haunted by a ghost, and dealing with matters of the past/ending a part of one's life for something new plays a huge role. It's also inspired by a...

    Dialogues or blocks of prose?

    Yes, that's exactly it! These things are just missing for me. It's like dialogue is a piece but I'm not getting the whole thing and that just annoys me to no end.

    Dialogues or blocks of prose?

    Bad translations surely don't help but no, it's more of a general thing. It's not something exclusive to Japanese novels hence me mentioning dramas. Like, for example, some years ago, I read The Maid of Orleans by Schiller. I like the general concept, there were some interesting characters, and...

    Is it me or does everyone put on a song for the mood of the book

    I don't necessarily mind music in the background but usually, I wouldn't go out of my way to search for it. If I have some on, it can't be too loud either or it is too much of a distraction.

    Dialogues or blocks of prose?

    I likely would have said dialogue but then I had flashbacks to those Japanese novels where half a chapter can be dialogue with no actions by any of the characters, no descriptions of setting or what's going on, and ... it's bad. Like, there's a reason I look at novels and go "Oh! Nice idea!"...

    Got an email from somebody asking whether they could send me an article about a businesses topic for my website. I'm tried to respond "You know I write gay porn, don't you?" just for the fun of it but it's probably spam anyway ... or somebody who really has no idea what they're doing :blobrofl:

    How much have you written?

    Oh, congratulations on reaching the finish line! That's so awesome! Truth be told, I have no idea how much I've written overall but I guess it's ... quite a bit? :blob_blank: My current main series is at roughly 1.6 million words (in the original version, the revised one has an additional...
