    Would my novel work now?

    I remember writing 100+ of a novel a good portion of readers mostly disliked because it was being ‘too meta’. This was the opinion I got early on but still continued to write out of passion. It was a post-modernist story planned out. —“Postmodern literature is a form of literature which is...

    What would be a fun monster to reincarnate?

    I’m kinda being reminded that fantasy sometimes have ‘alive undead’, which are powered by Life Energy rather than the more mysterious Death Energy. Skeletons being more insect-like beings rather than possessed corpses. Kinda like creating new existences rather than being haunted by those who...

    My ‘infinite background’ problem.

    Never read an event driven story besides some contemporary fiction. Don’t know how that sounds like but every time I tried making a post-modern story event driven, it ended up badly.

    My ‘infinite background’ problem.

    Let us assume I can have the audacity to say that I wouldn’t write a generic Isekai (though I do like Isekai). Non-human reincarnated as human sounded fun in my head and you’d be right in thinking the latter two are filler choices. Put them in to create some contrast. (I have plans of still...

    My ‘infinite background’ problem.

    It’s similar to world building disease but more plot based. Unlike WB disease that can be warded with the words “JUST WRITE THE DAMN THING!”… I’m unable to do that because I keep scrapping my prologue way too much. Example: I had this nifty idea called “Hero Hustle” where the heroes, after...

    One Weird Power Fantasy Trope

    It’s weird that low-effort Isekai and some power fantasies have this weird trope in their fight scenes sometimes. After giving the MC some kind of cheat, they will play around ‘fighting’ low level mobs before immediately destroying them. Mostly by pulling out the solution really late. Like in...

    What would be a fun monster to reincarnate?

    But that’s still the exact opposite of what this thread is about. Though now I must consider reincarnating @TheEldritchGod as a human, who is then eaten by itself in an infinite loop. Would make a good mind-screwing story.

    What would be a fun monster to reincarnate?

    No, because this thread would be about the Xenomorph reincarnating as you. Pretty much. The monster is being reincarnated. Human or not does not matter.

    What would be a fun monster to reincarnate?

    You know what I mean. Non-human not specifically evil entities. Must have some capability of thought since you probably wouldn’t remember your last life as a germ. Humans being monsters is also pretty normal tbh. Can’t expect much from them.

    What would be a fun monster to reincarnate?

    Sounds like a very Anime Cthulhu. Especially that lost one. Remember when she was a waifu? Fun times.

    What would be a fun monster to reincarnate?

    Isn’t that usually a lesser dragon? Got that want for true dragon hood via reincarnation? How would s/he even think? I’m curious on what such a creature must be doing in their free time.

    What would be a fun monster to reincarnate?

    And no, goblin isn’t in the poll because I already did that. To clarify: This is a monster reincarnating into something else. Not a human reincarnating into a monster. As in they are not bound by human morals or their problems. Thought I might as well make a poll for fun.

    What are peoples thoughts on authors allowing their readers to finish a story for them?

    Had the same thoughts with a fanfic I wrote called Sakura Is Reincarnated. Didn’t own the source material and it fiction created by fans in the first place. If I don’t care how others write it, then there shouldn’t be any problem with it. For an OG work? Know that how attached you are to it in...

    Bringing Back An Old Novel

    The story that originally made me want to ‘get good at writing stories’. Not my first work (as that one was actually really bad but I loved it for what it was) but definitely a work I cannot stop thinking about. There are mixed feelings here. Originally, this work… the ‘unedited’ version of the...

    What's your checklist for giving specific rating to a story?

    I can’t even be bothered rating if it isn’t a 5. Unless it makes me passionately angry at something I’d voice in an actual review.

    Writing Prompt You create Magical Girls.

    I thought ‘girl’ meant female and not age. There are a lot of gag manga using grown ups as magical girls.

    To complete an unwanted unit or get a new one?

    Very useful advice. Like the best advice I have seen yet. Even goddamn Shirou Emiya will point at the thread poster and say: “That’s hell you’re walking into.”

    What happen to a shipgirl in those gacha games (Azur and Honkai) when they are dismantled?

    It had to be done. We had literally no other alternative. No. There was never another choice.

    To complete an unwanted unit or get a new one?

    Meta will be changing, but waifu is forever.
