Yeah, there are some good cover artists out there. I've had 4 commissioned, currently using 2 of those and the other 2 are in reserve for series that I am working on behind the scenes.

Lol, well, it's written in such a way that it is sensitive to reader bias. So, I guess we know where your head is if you interpreted it that way. It's part of the way the world is structured. In that world, the term "lesser races" means races that are not born at the same tier as one's own...

This is the only one I'm aware of that even comes close to fitting what you're asking for. https://www.scribblehub.com/series/278151/the-reincarnation-of-alysara/ In most cases, having the powerful race of the balance be the good guys, regardless of what the powerful race actually is (be it...

I'm trying to remember the name of this one non-isekai liteRPG in which the MC was a rock that was turned into a dungeon core by a dragon. And when I say a rock, I seriously mean it previously was just a normal rock and was never human. I mean, as mentioned, it's not isekai. The rock was always...

I had a similar experience. I tried a few times to capture the moment in writing, but the more I tried to work with it, I kept finding that it just did not work out in written form very well. Ultimately, I distilled out only one core aspect of the grief that translated smoothly into writing and...

Yeah, correction. IQ can change in a negative direction if you cause mechanical damage to the brain. There is no means by which to change it in the positive direction, and it will not change for anything shy of mechanical damage to the brain. Outside of those conditions, IQ remains more or less...

IQ actually does not change much throughout your life. The test itself measures you on a range. And, as people in here have commented, it does somewhat depend on your current physical and mental condition as to whether or not you're operating at peak capacity. However, all variables controlled...

Sounds to me like Shin Sekai Yori if it was the Queyrats who were the psychics.

This is exactly right so far as I've seen. Most of the big-name series from Japan had 8000 word chapters back in the day, but even those are significantly shortening these days. In the English speaking webnovel scene, 1500 to 2500 words seems to be exactly where the goldie-lox zone is for...

I've put a little thought into this area as well, and used a little bit of layman's knowledge of Einstein's theory of space-time as my guide for the mechanics. As such, I have it as a 3rd tier magic system in a progression of Earth magic ---> Gravity magic ---> Space-time magic. You've gotta go...

I think the correct way to approach this is in terms of which role allows you to up your overall party effectiveness the most. Just like every role is important, it's also possible to adjust your tactics around the absence of just about any role you could happen to name. So, which role, when...

Honestly, this poll is lacking in several areas and shows something of a lack of understanding of how POV should be used. 1st and 3rd person POV are the only viable options. 2nd POV only works in choose-your-own-adventure style stories, and it's a little tiresome and off-putting in any other...

I think the issue he was pointing out is that your synopsis is too conversational and casual. It needs to take some perspective distance, and reading some professionally done synopsies would be the best way to become familiar with what that looks like.

I cover sprites in an earlier post, but they're pretty much an ill-defined type of fey creature that can sometimes look identical to pixies or sometimes be just balls of light. Or, sometimes balls of light with wings (think Zelda fairies from the N64 era. It would have been more accurate to call...

Not really. Fae and Fairy are both umbrella categories that sprites and pixies can fit inside, but it does not mean they make up the entirety of that category. In other words, saying that all fae are pixies is like saying all beverages are sprites.

Fae = a general umbrella term for all non-evil non-human but distinctly humanoid creatures out of English or occasionally French (but not Irish or Welsh) lore. In modern writing, it can expand further to encompass some non-evil non-human humanoid creatures from German, Slavic, or occasionally...

Living wood weapons. They are basically green wood + nature spirit + a wielder who has druidic powers = becomes whatever you want it to become. Add to this formula that all the fey have druidic powers and start giving these things to all the upper-rank fey, you get an army of magic soldiers...

Actually, there's a pretty solid way to talk about problems with China whilst skirting the line on the "no-politics" policy. This would be because one of the many issues with China's international policy is one where they do not respect the intellectual property rights of anyone outside of...

As painful as it is to say something positive about anything that seems to glorify China even in jest, this one really made me crack a smile. It also reminds me a little bit of my world history class in Highschool in which when the teacher was doing their unit on China we had a few students...

Not really sure what you're so nervous about offending people in this. The entire idea of this thread is that, historically, fictional portrayals of smart people have given the general populous some ideas about what a smart person should act like. According to psychological research on real...
