    Has your story been copied to a Chinese site called Quiana?

    You’d have an easier time making a transatlantic crossing on a skate board then enforcing a copyright dispute in China. No reason to worry about it, because there is nothing you can do.

    S̶w̶o̶r̶d̶&̶S̶o̶r̶c̶e̶r̶y̶ Guns

    Yeah, cavalry with swords coexisted with guns for hundreds of years. Plate armor was still used up until the late 1600s, even when guns had taken over most of the battlefield.

    S̶w̶o̶r̶d̶&̶S̶o̶r̶c̶e̶r̶y̶ Guns

    What are your thoughts on Fantasy stories that have guns instead of being largely focused on medieval melee weapons? Do you think guns can be as cool as swords in fantasy? What do you think is the best period of firearms for a fantasy story? Personally I find like anything after 1900 to be a...

    Fantasy, Adventure, and Genderbender because I’m a degen, I’ll throw in the GOAT Western for good measure My favorite type of plot is a story that has several slow paced slice of life chapters, that lead into several fast paced action chapters, back to slice of life in a repeating cycle. Don’t...

    No joke I once got a YouTube ad, for an AI assisted tank fire control & targeting system. I don’t know why something like that had public advertising because it was very clear the only targeted buyer was the Pentagon

    World Builders- Creation Myths?

    I’m a cow tools world builder. If It’s not relevant to the story I don’t create it, and if it is part of the story I’ll only explain the bare minimum of what’s required to understand.

    Facial hairs anyone?

    Several years ago I grew a mustache like Rivers Cuomo after seeing Weezer play. It made me look like a serial killer from the 90s so I shaved it after a few months, haven’t grown anything since.

    RIP

    It’s been a little under 3 years since I was in the server. I don’t really remember many details because I was only in it for like a week or less. Mostly everything I remember was political, and all of that stuff I can’t really talk about because SH rules and out of fear this funny thread might...

    Annoying Tropes

    The thing is though, a punch strong enough to hurt someone who can’t be damaged by a nuke, would have explosive power far greater than a nuke. It would not only hurt the target, but kill thousands

    Annoying Tropes

    I always find guns vs magic/super powers so annoying. Sure magic can block a bullet, but can you cast magic faster than the speed of sound? If a swordsman can block the fire of a machine gun with their sword, then they should be making a bunch of noise as they’re constantly breaking the sound...

    Okay, cover looks pretty good. Has the title, and isn’t an obvious ai generated headshot. Synopsis is pretty good. It’s the right length. I think you might want to explain some of the terms like rules lawyer or munchkin. Even if it’s a litrpg story some readers may not recognize the phrases...

    Right off the bat the synopsis is very vague. It‘s similar to how they write plot synopsisi on IMDb, a few sentences that give more of a mood for the story rather than an explanation of the first (few) chapters. The story uses decimal chapters. This is just subjective but I’m not a very big fan...
