yes, thank you. My brain isn't functioning properly right now. for some reason, I just couldn't find that word.

How does everyone feel about sad endings with happy undertones? Both from a writing and reading perspective. I just wrote the final chapter for my 4-part witch story. chapters 1-3 focused on fleshing out their relationship. Chapter 4 saw them marry, then the end... 80 years of life together, and...

Been putting ranch on pizza since high school. bacon ranch is best.

fun fact: The first instances of "pizza" was closer to a sweet nut pie than the tomato and cheese round sheets we have now. Tomato wasn't added until the mid 1800s. Cheese wasn't commonplace until the early 1900s. Pineapple on pizza is both a return to norm (Given the sweet nature) and the...

Indeed it should. Androgynous does indeed mean that someone looks like they could be either way. tomboy with small breasts, short hair, and wearing pants (in a situation where women would be wearing skirts, such as school anime) would be androgynous. A man looking like a different man would be...

I'm kinda proud that most of my novels are out of these. My closest are: A Succubus' Love (108 readers) DragonBound (272 favorites) One Shot Anthology (11k views), though outside of anthologies it's 26k views on DragonBound) and the only ones I have less than 15 chapters are my newest...

I can see your point with both. For mercs, If the world is supposed to be a game, I feel game-esque properties are appropriate. But if someone is coming from our world, it does seem more realistic that the transferee wouldn't be able to use it, or, in the case of trans-world reincarnation...

leveling systems, I do agree. that's why I use it in as a background detail. It's tedious to keep track, but I wanted a system that's a reincarnation (rather than typical reincarnated humans or monsters), and having a level system with systemic magic (the status screen magic) seems to go...

I dislike level systems in the sense that it's too overdone. Chapter 1, MC is level 1. Chapter 5, MC is level 99999999. Like no, slow down. That's not how leveling in a game works. Stop using glitches, you hacker. In one of mine, I do use both a leveling system and adventurer's guilds, but...

Yeah, that was my thought. It used to start the poll when the chapter went live, I could've sworn. But the site updated a couple of times while I was on hiatus, so I wasn't really certain.

(shameless self plug, as a harem author) I don't usually read them, but I watch a lot of isekai (my wife's favorite genre), which usually includes a lot of harem. That said, i don't mind reading harem, as long as the harem stays a reasonable size. My rule of thumb is main + 1 member/day of the...

the best time is: Consistency. It doesn't matter the specific time of day that you post it (except with new stories. It's best to find a slot where potential readers + chapter are active on the site at the same time. but this can vary greatly with 3 variables - who your potential readers are...

So, I mentioned this in another forum, but wasn't sure if it was a bug. I've since been advised to post it here. I have a story that relies heavily on polls for reader engagement. I noticed it with a prior chapter and saw it again with the one I posted today. So, today is wednesday. I...

The only idea I've ever actually scrapped was essentially an answer to Twilight (Seriously, screw the sparkly vampires. They should burn in sunlight and shouldn't behave like angsty emo teens despite having been alive for 300+ years). Basically, it was a novel about a guy who accidentally...

my biggest lies are the ones I tell myself. I'm worthless, pointless, and aimless. I should just curl into a ball and pretend I don't exist so I don't inconvenience the world. My wife secretly hates me. My daughter can't stand to be around me. But I'm doing better. That once-screaming voice...

Just a small issue I've been having - Polls on scheduled chapters are active even before the chapter goes live. It just seems counterintuitive to have a chapter scheduled to go live on saturday with a 4 day poll, and the poll is active from today, meaning when it goes live, the poll can only be...

There are better places to discuss such things without skating around the rules and risking a ban. Reddit in particular, as they have subs dedicated to this topic. Cheers, friend :)

I am labeled as smut, but as that seems to possess some negative connotations, I usually try to avoid using it. my stories are nearly all plot with sex, rather than entirely sex-centric, like a lot of smut stories.

That was my thought. I like the "we publush it to stores you check off" as a one-stop shop of crossposting. I don't like the "We take your unpaid royalties the moment you have enough for a payout. So if you don't claim it the MOMENT you are able to, you default it to us." and I definitely...

Anyone have experience with this site? It sounds too good to be true. Self-publish that's entirely based on your sales. They claim no upfront costs. Customer buys a book, the store gets 30%, the site gets 10%, and you get 60% (minus printing costs in the case of physical copies). I'm leery of...
