Ever hear of Homura Akemi?

I'm interested in how my story would come out on AI text to speech. I trip over my own tongue when I try to read my own work aloud, but that could just be lack of practice in reading aloud.

Hmm? Why would you think people would vote for me? I'm just an internet persona of indeterminate gender who occasionally flexes my knowledge of fantasy lore and writing conventions on people when I find a good opening to do so. I'm honestly finding it a little strange that this behavior is...

Ok, that's the introduction to the reader, but what's actually happening? As in, what's the principle behind all this scene jumping? If you can answer me that question, I might actually consider it an idea with some legs. If you're just showing confusing random scenes for a shock opening when...

Right. I'm going to need some literature for the "reprograms your cell's DNA" part as I've seen no literature on that subject. That said, assuming it is correct, there is still one essential component of a virus this is missing. The ability to reproduce itself. A virus is technically on the...

That's an interesting point. There are a lot of overpopulation arguments that also have a fair amount of racism mixed into them.

*Sigh* This is what we refer to as "knowing just enough to be dangerous." You know a few things, but there are some rather critical flaws in your reasoning here. 1. The COVID vaccine was a new type of vaccine that doesn't use a virus, alive or dead, at all. It was an mRNA vaccine, using the...

You might want to parse that out a little better. The United States is the most prosperous society on earth, while China is the most populated as a nation with 3X the population and around 1/2 the GDP. Meanwhile, India is the most populated per square-inch of livable land, and is really not in...

In terms of overpopulation... In the 1800s, they were saying the streets would be unwalkable due to horse-poop being everywhere if the population continued to increase at it's current rate... That didn't happen, because the automobile was invented and people stopped using horses. Later, there...

That's alright. I'm far too self-conscious of my voice quality and I hate hearing my singing voice on a recording.

*scrolls up, sees quote marks around "action." Hmm... I guess I can see that interpretation. Should have said that from the start, instead of just insisting it was the wrong thread.

I answered in the correct thread, I told him it doesn't really work for "seggs," as I said. It has to be planned from the beginning. Also, what I suggested was not "romance in action," what you just linked would have been "the wrong thread." I answered how to intermingle romance and ANY other...

And I answered honestly that it doesn't work well as seggs, and laid out how it actually works.

It's actually quite easy. Make the romance your sub-genre, not your main genre. There are dozens of series out there that did this to very great effect. Ranma 1/2 is a comedy gender-bender that has romance as another one of it's genre tags, and the romance does play a central role. Detective...

Dude, seriously, just download a (non-microsoft) word processor program. There are tons of free ones out there, and you can use them exactly like you would Microsoft word and save your drafts directly to your computer hard drive.

No, that's just a cross-over. Both characters get pulled into a 3rd world different from either of the ones they came from, and then when the little mini-arc is over they both go back to their own worlds and none of it is even talked about at all in their own series. EDIT: It basically amounts...

Hmm... that's not really my scene exactly. The closest thing I'm aware of in this whole magic as negotiation theme is "The Ancient Magus' Bride," which is Japanese in origin and is currently being adapted to anime. There are 2 classes of magic in that series, magecraft and sorcery. Sorcery is...

The level of detail in the description necessary to tell the reader exactly how they are sitting would drag down the pace of the story. You are writing a story, not a screen play, so you can omit some details and allow the reader's imagination to fill in some gaps. They will not see things...

I am just learning this is a thing due to the fact I was tagged... and apparently I'm also in previous lore portraits. Fun, I suppose I am honored. Also find it rather interesting how you chose to have me facing away, which I suppose fits due to the fact that I don't exactly live on the forums...

Jokes aside, standing up is literally the fastest way. It falls asleep like that due to lack of blood flow, standing up opens all the correct paths for good blood flow and also positions the leg below the heart, so there's absolutely no faster way than just standing.
