Now that Tsuru mentions it, the person does sorta look like a she... I'm not sure what it is, whether its the black around the eyes or the face looking too smooth or something... Offtopic, but immersion is completely independant of any fantasy elements one may include in a story. Examples: any...

Equating the brain to a muscle and assuming it works similar to it does make sense. Logic is often similar in different scenarios so even if the brain isn't actually a muscle, that doesn't mean it cannot work like one. However, just because the brain might work like a muscle doesn't mean it...

I was going to write a long essay, but decided not to, so I wrote a different, medium-sized essay instead. This is gold. Many people metioned similar things along these lines, and I'm going to restate them again, in reverse-order to here. 1. A common goal (stated as an interest, but I'll go...

I think grammer is more important than vocabulary.

This sounds like a villian to me. Although I guess anti-hero could be seen as a type of villian, so thats makes perfect sense. Although its not on this site, something like "I became the villian the hero is obsessed with" might be what you're looking for, if you haven't read that one already...

Plot is the collection of events that happen in the story. Every story has a plot, even Slice of Life stories. Drama pertains to deep emotions of characters. I want to make a small distinction between tags and genre. A genre is about the themes the novel explores. If there's romance in the...

If you don't write harems or love triangles in the first place, this problem is automatically solved. Just another pro of not writing a harem story :cool:

Hungry snail perseveres towards distant leaf.

Big yes. I think it can also help set the mood for the chapter.

"We live in the shadows, and hunt the shadows" I guarantee this line is 100% original and my own.

I think so. Maybe? If you and I are both focusing on the "thematic" part, here. All stories have plots, even SoL stories. Those plots could be walking to school, attending a lesson, then going home on repeat, but thats still the plot. Lets say I'm reading a SoL highschool romcom. I'm reading...

I think it really depends on how its revealed. i've seen some stories where the tragic past is suddenly glued on halfway across the story, spanning multiple chapters and becoming its own arc. At best its tolerable. At worst it destroys the original premise of the story and turns it into an edgy...

I don't think its necessarily a bad trope. If it fits the story, it fits the story.

I feel like the reason it feels edgy is because it's not really a physical thing, but people write it as if it were. In kidnappeed dragons, the MC's killing intent manifests due to a skill he has, and he uses it like a weapon. That makes it feel natural. Of course thats a pretty niche way to...

Disgust is a feeling directed at something. What do you want your readers to be disgusted at?

Since I find this topic interesting, I'ma give my opinion: Since there is a content filter, one could also test using the content filter for sexual content. eg. count x many stories, then filter out the ones with the content warning, then re-count. Also, One could check stories by those with...

Realistically speaking, interspecies relationships sound messed up, so ima take the money.

I have an unpublished chapter that I jot a few notes down on. Currently, thats it. Everything else is in my head.

Written feedback is a privilege to recieve, but nobody has a right to recieve any. However, I definitely think its good to give feedback along with any one-star rating you give a series, unless everything you want to say has already been said by another person. I definitely think this is worth...

If a one star review is all it takes to make someone stop writing a novel, they probably didn't have a strong will to start to begin with. If you stop giving honest opinions because you are afraid you might offend someone, that's getting your priorities wrong. If someone is so easily offended by...
