    Your handwriting

    I write in the most lazy efficient way possible. What letter should be done in three strokes, I do in two. What should be done with two, if possible, I do in one. most call my handwriting illegible; I call it ahead of its time.

    Your thoughts on humanoid beings that have aerokinetic abilities

    This is completely off topic, so please all forgive me, BUT... If they weren't called dragons... maybe thats because they weren't considered dragons? You can't use things that weren't explicitly called dragons to suggest the original concepts of dragons. That doesn't make sense. When doing a...

    Which Old/Hidden Manga/Manhua/Manwha would you like to see have a good anime adaptation.

    I got a few on my list that I hope get an adaption, the one at the top of my head that I think isn't well known is Yuusha party no kawaii.

    Great idea for a story

    Ok, but I have a more original idea.... Take out the harem, then write it.

    Royal Families are pretty cringe

    Ha! You simple commoners just don't understand how much we, the nobility, do for you. We sort out all your petty squabbles, give you jobs, food, safety. Yet you would turn around and bite the hand that fed you!?! We spent our childhood under strict discipline, leaning all rules and formalities...

    What's An Actual Fun Goal For A Game-Type Novel?

    I see we have many disagreements. Allow me to correct you in the error of your ways. Ok, not really, but I'ma reply anyway. To explain, *smart* AI is ok, but *sentient* AI isn't. I don't want to be surrounded by novels that go on about "oh how amazing! Sentient AI", as if its actually possible...

    What's An Actual Fun Goal For A Game-Type Novel?

    I once considered making a vrmmo story myself. The premise would be the idea of "A.I. training", so it becomes a job where a machine reads everything you and your guildies do, and gives you points on how much the A.I. "learns" from you. The problem is, you couldn't really write it with high...

    Trolley problem. Just that.

    I looked around to see if this had previously been discussed on the forums. I couldn't find a thread that showed it, so I thought I'd make it. Serious answer only, although feel free to go haywire in the replies. I don't think I need to explain it, but just in case: Before you stand two train...

    Intelligence vs wisdom

    Looking at the comments, I can see that what a lot of people call "wisdom", another calls "intellegence", and visa versa. I sort of thought there would be a general consensus but apparently no.

    Stamina/ strength / agility and attack

    In reality, this makes no sense. Regardless, that doesn't make it automatically bad writing. When has reality ever been the standard for system novels? Since you have concepts such as agility, attack explicitly mentioned, it makes it sound like the novel you read is specifically in some...

    Intelligence vs wisdom

    Initium sapientiae timor Domini I'd associate intellegence with how much you know, and how much information your brain can store. I'd associate wisdom with the ability to make the right choice/answer based on what you know.

    How do you start your stories???

    My opinion is that It's not the first paragraph that pulls people in. It's the title, the cover, and the synopsis. If the reader got as far as the first paragraph- even the first sentence- they are already reading the story. everything from your first sentence to the end of the story is simply...

    Writing How do you plot backwards from the end?

    I could be completely wrong here, but I think the idea from plotting "backwards" is the idea that your end-arc must have several conditions fulfilled for it to make sense, so then you include a plot that makes those conditions fulfilled. But that plot also requires conditions to be fulfilled...

    AI-Assisted or not.

    Do you find yourself filling up your sentence with too many clauses? For example, a sentence like this one, right here, with a comma at the start, and it even has a conjuction, to boot!
