Nope. At best I only used half my name combined with another word. So maybe only the sharpest person would notice. And that was for offline games. By the time it got to making online accounts of any sort, I wouldn't use my name even partly.

Generally, I follow the policy of thinking if I can do something interesting, and do those interesting things into the filler or lead up. If I feel like I am just going to drag the story for little to no benefit or it won't be fun, it is better to cut it out or simply up the pacing and get where...

Neither. You being positive or negative has no actual correlation to experience in life. Everything has advantages and disadvantages. You are under a false impression of negativity and positivity. A negative person might think he sees the true value of life, but by not exploring the venue they...

While a lot of people hate info dumps, myself included. If you are gonna do one, it is usually best to: 1) Do them as early as possible before people are hooked (but don't overdo it to bore them out) 2) Avoid the entire chapter being an infodump, preferably infodump in the beginning and get...

I think this...

Like all things in literature, it will never go away. Things will grow and go out of style and then back in style but it is here to stay. AS mentioned, Isekai is centuries old genre. I am not sure why you think LitRPG is easy to write... If anything, it can be pretty hard to write. A lot of...

Cat island

I said this before and I will say this again. The biggest issue with tropes isn't the tropes themselves but due to them being tropes, we subconsciously take shortcuts with them in our thought process. Take a sandwich, if you had to make one yourself, you would make it knowing what is in it or...

4 years, 100 years, 1,000,000 years, the internet will still and forever be owned by cats.

Well, there is 1 benefit to censoring out curse words (not slave). Many things from search engines to work/school proxies may filter/block webpages based on those.

Personally, I think doing cliff hangers is a bad practice. I understand that cliff hangers will happen from time to time. But forced cliff hangers just cheapens the writing.

There is none. Standing desk is the way to go. That said, if you do sit. I suggest a lap kitty accessory.

Right, which is precisely why using brackets conveys the meaning better than doing your own thing. English and Japanese work completely different. Everything from jumping from 1st person to 3rd person to tenses. And as any translation, you gotta worry about how the story flows. I said speech...

Petting a cat! What else do I need to know?

The he said, she said has so much underutilized potential. I think it pretty much makes up a big portion of my flavor of writing style. I've seen single quotations to be used for inner dialog, to differentiate it from dialog said out loud. Which isn't too bad, better than those using double...

There is nothing wrong with breaking grammar rules or even making up your own words. As long as you know what you are doing. That is precisely what the english language is about. I just wanted to point out that people shouldn't depend on grammar tools to fix everything, they simply are there to...

In general, grammar tools aren't really a replacement for knowing proper grammar. They simply make it easier to remember grammar cause when we write stuff, such things can often times slip our heads. Even if the better tools offer suggestions and explanations, that may not take into account the...

The truth is, every time you fall asleep, you die and get replaced by a different person. So the you who wakes up next morning will not be you any more. But all seriousness aside, you really shouldn't do that. I know the temptation to avoid sleep and procrastinate or what not. But sleep is more...

There is so much wrong here I don't know where to start. 1) While no one likes Qidian's practices, they do own rights to their own licensed works. Having translators translate the works in themselves isn't evil. 2) Putting up translated work as originals would be deceptive and may even be...

500 if you use native unicode ones? ??????????????????
