    Have you ever lost confidence in writing?

    If you lost it, then simply regained it back. Reread your story, recall how you plan it, savour in self-confirmation and continue to write more. If you found any mistakes, it's mostly because your writing is better than before and spotted the mistake you would have missed in the past. Edit it...

    The YA epidemic...

    Yaoi, and Yuri for that matter, is inherently a fetish genre. Most who read the genre isn't going into it for the engaging storyline, but they are going to see their favourite taboo and the violation of their archetype aka self-insert. That's why lots of Yaoi and Yuri had many kinks, it's...

    Writing Tell Me About Your Villains

    My story never has a clear distinction between hero and villain. My principle is that everyone has both good and bad. Basically, everyone suffered except the sadistic author. Anyway, with my special condition out of the way. The way I designed my character is based on the world and the plot. (...

    Poof! You are now a yandere. WTH goes through your mind?

    -Not Family-Friendly Content Ahead- My fingernail glided across my neck down towards my chest, cutting open a small wound allowing crimson liquid of love to pour out. I felt a little bit of excitement mixing with discomfort spreading across my entire existence. Sadly, the tear I shed due to...

    Novel feedback from senpai

    This should be in Story Feedback. People will be more willing to give feedback in there. Not really my type so I'm afraid I can't really help. Just know that slice-of-life is more popular here than you think, so you'll be alright. The only complaint I have from skimming through is that you make...

    What new SF genres,

    Historical is underrated but also very hard to confidently write about. For me, I think Horror and Psychological are underutilized, it doesn't have to be gore to be horror, just the atmospheric despair that was lacking in most pieces of literature. Philosophy is also another aspect that is...

    What if Transmigration Was Like a Debuff?

    We are not discussing about the definition of words, but the reason why we considered consistency ( hence realism ) is needed for fiction to be decent ( objectively ). Instead of addressing my claim on the topic, you picked up the least relevant words in my quote and made an entire post about it...

    What if Transmigration Was Like a Debuff?

    Technically, everything is fiction. You can write garbage and called it fiction, and nothing would change. It's still garbage writing and no one is going to love reading it, at least not anyone normal. We are discussing how to write good/decent fictions, which should have some sense of...

    What if Transmigration Was Like a Debuff?

    I played with the idea that, with the decaying property of time, the soul would become wearied and tired. The more their soul became wearied the closer they are to their true death, as in the death of the soul, disintegrating into nothingness. Not only that, but their memory would slowly turn...

    Need Help with Synopsis

    Like any cynical and self-critical author, I came back to my old creation and found them to be absolutely disgusting not up to my standard. So, I decided to slowly rework everything up by slowly editing the old chapters into comprehensible literature until I hit the point where I found it...

    We All Know Character Progression Is Important

    Sometimes character development isn't even necessary. If your character is a jaded veteran or the classic old monster who had seen everything, you should not even try to develop their inner philosophy as they had almost reached the end of their road.

    Which Would You Rather Reincarnate As In A Litrpg Fantasy World?

    A human because I bet human supremism would result in demi-humans slaves and the likes ( in disguise as a harem of the protagonist ). Any animals would get hunted by adventures, and demons would fall under the protagonist ( either die or be a part of his harem. ). A deity isn't even good if the...

    Respect As A Writer

    I respected Authors that wrote a story that I can come back and enjoy endlessly. If the second re-read gave me more insight into the story, then they've earned my respect.
