    Idiot Plot or Realistic Plot

    That's because rom-com, by definition, is an idiot plot. The things that happen in Rom-Coms are 1. Misunderstandings 2. Density 3. Dense misunderstandings. 4. Bad Decisions by seemingly rational people. Which goes to show just how difficult writing comedy is. If you follow the Saturday Night...

    How many chapters does your first 20,000 words take up?

    This is done on purpose. Chapters of this length are a sweet spot as page turners. They're not too long but long enough to write something substantial. Also, with that word count an author can edit and publish them faster.

    What is it with “yuri” authors and not using the bisexual protagonist tag

    Bruv, best you learn now. The readers of pure GL, BL get real upset if some swinging johnson has relations with their best "yuri" girl mc. Same with the BL readers. They will burn your novel if some woman gets between the dudes they like. In fact, they don't even care for hetero subplots with...

    Do you bother favoriting a chapter

    If I read a chapter I favorite it. And I cannot grasp for the life of me why anyone reading any story would not give a like on a new chapter for a story they bookmarked. IT IS THE ONLY CURRENCY ON THIS FUCKING WEBSITE TO ACKNOWLEDGE AN AUTHOR. YET SO FEW READERS DO IT. Most don't.

    New cover, fresh out of the oven ~

    The font issue can go both ways. Like, if it is more about the Aesthetic, than you don't care if the title is legible. (it would be legible on the SH description of the book, and if you sold it as a paperback, legible on the spine. I personally don't care for illegible fonts, but can totally...

    Recommendations School-Life Romance with a non-loner male protagonist

    So I'm reading chapter 2 of your story and I already feel for Eriko and Sotoka because nothing lasts forever and at some point one of them is going to have to move to that City or start a life and all these little moments on the bus, in the library... So fleeting *Sigh* ?

    How to write accent?

    @Schultz_von If a character has an accent. You can let the reader know that the character has an accent by having the MC notice a sample of it. And then you can write out a sample of it. But then you stop after that. Just go back to normal English. For example: Kathy noticed Jill's Texas...

    Opinions on Card Game anime

    Having watched like three different versions of WIXOSS, the anime and fighting is fun, I guess. but strategy? are you kidding. Every single one of these animes just ASS PULLS. "Ha! you may have fire discs and a nuclear bomb. but my fairy can nullify that, and turn your bomb into flowers! Card...
