If you don't know her well enough to know her favorite chocolates, you've got 2 options: A basic card that is sweet or polite humor (no crude humor, unless you know 110% she's into it). Or, option 2, a variety pack of chocolate. and for note: Yes, I know my wife's favorite chocolate. rolos, as...

my bad. Didn't mean for it to sound heated. I'm bored as I can't work today. My writing programs are updating, so I'm down for the count until tomorrow.

because AO3 doesn't allow ANY monetization, even original content. If it's posted there, it's not allowed to be monetized from that site, plain and simple. This is completely separate from whether it's original work or a fanfic. And I find it funny you haven't yet mentioned the fact that it's...

other sites also have other weird rules. SH isn't strictly a fanfic site, unlike AO3 (which only allows 'fannish' content, an ill-defined term that doesn't seem to have a solid definition). and half their works seem to be straight-up illegal-criminal, like loli/shota smut. That's the site you...

your premise is flawed. Writing fanfics isn't illegal. Nor is asking for money for work done to transform another's work. Technically the base question was flawed in its wording, as there's nothing illegal about any of this. It's all civil law, not criminal. Which means the only issue arises...

you're missing an important point of copyright law here. Transformative works under copyright law are allowed, legally speaking, to be monetized, depending on how it's done. You're not allowed to write a harry potter fanfic and publish it traditionally as original. But you are allowed to use the...

because they're copyright-happy. They file lawsuits against any copyright-safe, transformative works they don't like. If I wrote a mario/peach smut, I'd likely see a nintendo lawsuit in the mail, despite being legal in my country. it's civil lawsuits, so they can file it and, being poor, I...

this is a murky subject, as the laws can vary widely. I'm not a lawyer, so take this with a grain of salt. That said, as a creator, I've studied copyright in-depth. And what I've found is that "transformative" works include fanfics. We all know this. Unless the fanfic is 100% a rip from...

I used to. My means of handling it? I write them. At least the basis. I've got probably 130 different starts, ideas, and general concepts. Once it's down somewhere, I can allow my mind to move on, back to the story at hand.

Still learning the program, but I'd like to showcase my most recent works! Rather simple, but I like the lighting and composition! First up, we have Mininda and Enduri (from my story Fractured Bonds) just out for a stroll. Followed by Xenon and Mininda on their first date, Taking Enduri...

In short... Describe the scenes with quick, short, easy to skim sentences. You don't want a lot of word flourishes. Describe what happens, when it happens, as it happens. My go-to for inspiration with combat is R.A.Salvatore's Drizzt series. However, for group-on-group fight scenes, you can't...

I do agree. And this from someone that uses AI as a sounding board for my stories (they're written by me, but I use it to search for options I may not see myself), I remember pre-AI, when I was reading a fanfic about RWBY that felt like it was written by a preteen neckbeard with one hand in his...

as was said, it's entirely contextual. In Lay the Dragon (my story in my sig) the MC starts at 5. then jumps to 11, then again to adulthood.

Oh sailin' down to Bristol town Met Maggie with hair of gold She whispered soft and pulled me close Her embrace was fierce and bold Yo ho ho from port to port I kissed the girls and laughed Each one left a mark on me A love etched from the past ^^ That's the one I put in the chapter...

You are the worst critic of your own works. You either only see the flaws or you can't see the flaws. That said, if you're not proud of what you've created, then no one else can enjoy it properly either.

lol I certainly don't want to be Tolkien. I just want to be the best "me" I can be as an author. But I don't begrudge those that can't or don't. I took poetry three times in high school (different focuses, but all were poetry at their core), so I've got a lot of experience writing poems. Music...

not quite. The characters got isekai'd. so now, they're trying to learn about the world and decide what they want to do, because they weren't given a grand "slay the demon lord quest." The ball of light (affectionately known as God-Not-God) that welcomed them just said "welcome to the world. get...

Well, I think the song I included works well for the characters singing it. And they are on a ship, heading into port under oar, so it's at least semi accurate to have a shanty to keep all sailers on rhythm. but the whole section is on a ship, and kinda teases the characters ending.

lol sorry, working on the chapter, another story, reading/typing here, and working on the scene images to go with it. I didn't mean to come off short like that. Just that asking permission or recommendation wasn't my intent. Just everyone else's thoughts on it. That why I posted it to...

I wasn't so much asking for permission lol. More just asking other's thoughts on it. I've already included it. But I only did a short verse and a short chorus. Basically enough to give a feel for the song. Just as much as the character (a ship captain) sang, before his crew took over the song...
