    I have a problem with writing

    I say finish the arc you're in and call it. When it comes to vampires and romance there's always 'something'. So you don't have the character get to the end goal. That's what happens to 90% of people. They fail.

    For you, what is the line between an antihero and evil protagonist?

    Antiheroes and villains kill. The difference is the antiheroes aim to kill only those they believe will always be evil. While a villain has no problem killing everyone in an area to get those who "wronged" them. It's why I stopped reading CN cultivation novels. The protags are constantly wiping...

    WOOOOO

    106f, 41.1c here in the US Midwest. Was 107f, 41.6c a couple days ago. Been here a couple decades. Never seen it above 101f, 38.3c before. Guessing "Dust Bowl Strikes Back" is gonna happen within the decade.

    Can you kill an mosquito while it's flying with your bare hands?

    Nope. Being near sighted with a stigmatism pretty much ensures my aim is always off.

    Is family important to you?

    I wish A1, but b2 is more realistic.

    Would it be possible?

    Depends on the person. We literally got people that believe the moon landings were faked. And that's regardless of evidence.

    What makes Genderbenders fun?

    It's why stories like The Reincarnation of Alysara are nice. Though I don't believe souls have a gender so I don't mind not having gender identity issues in reincarnation stories.

    What makes Genderbenders fun?

    I'm quite gender fluid, so I read whatever gender including gb. Different authors have different takes on things. The times it makes no sense to me I just have to chalk it up as vicarious wish fulfillment. In that context it's very similar to normal wish fulfillment stories. Plot holes, rule of...

    What is with all these dropped stories?

    Aspiring writers try it out and quickly learn that going from a concept to written word is just too tough for them. Not everyone is wired to do it well regardless of desire and practice. I'm guessing the reasons for quitting are as numberous as reasons for starting.

    Ways to make mothers young in RomComs

    Seems like a problem... Until you meet a near 30 yr old Asian that looks like she's 14. It's a RL thing Euro decent folk just don't encounter. I mean, why else would Australia ban A cup women from the adult industry.

    Ways to make mothers young in RomComs

    There's the "mother in spirit" type that looks after her younger siblings. Often comes with the dead parents and shit relatives tropes.

    Plot Formulas Are Popular

    "The hero of a thousand faces" book really breaks down most story telling into a formula. After reading that, it's very apparent how to write a story to have a more mass appeal. It's also spoiled every story for me lol.

    What kind of thoughts keep you awake?

    How greed leads to the worst tragedies in history. Like Nestle selling baby formula in 3rd world countries has caused the deaths of over 2 million babies over a 50 year time span. Or pensioners being out 400 billion because the managers thought it was a good idea to invest in China stock. Even...

    Recommendations Cultivation but none of it's tropes

    I can't cause even the parodies can't escape the tropes while making fun of them.

    Writing Yoko Taro

    Hmm. I dunno what to tell you. "Special" is so vague. All I can tell you is what he did, and you judge it. He's unusually bold for his society while also being guarded enough to wear a mask. He picks very human themes while putting them through non human characters. He doesn't stick to heavy...
