What about giving birth without fertilisation (parthenogenesis)? This isn't a joke... the figure of a sacred woman does exist (at least in religion). Or even fish or lizards possess the ability of parthenogenesis. Imagine a virgin mother having a child. It seems contradictory, but that's the...

Often, what makes a memorable fiction is not a satisfying ending, an epic battle, or a plot twist, but rather that the story leaves wounds and questions that linger in the hearts of its readers because it resonates with the real world.

I've read hundreds of fictions from various genres, from SoL, romcom, isekai, wholesome fantasy, shounen, seinen, shoujo, josei, to dark and bloody ones like gore and dark fantasy. But only a few remain in my memory. Some I remember the title. Some I remember the character names. Some I...

Congratulations, you've reached 500 readers. That's the key to becoming a rising author.

Remember your purpose in writing! Some people chase numbers and popularity. Others chase monetisation. Others share experiences and hopes. Still others pursue meaning. Every author has goals that may be similar or different. However, they remain committed to writing if they want to remain authors.

He's already included his portfolio, miss. Just like you said - you're too lazy to read the thread.

Honest answer: Just write it and don't chase engagement too much - those who are interested will read, those who don't will stay away. Commercial answer: Do a structured and massive promotion: Use the cover as an attention grabber (usually an anime cover with an elegant heroine figure). Write...

Don't forget to breathe. The freezing air might make you forget to breathe.

I agree with this. The revival of Konoha's population negates Pain's tragedy. However, Naruto was written as an inspirational story and a story of hope for teenagers, especially boys (shounen). I understand why the author chose Pain's ending, even if I'm not satisfied.

Worth Ending for the Moral Antagonist as the Dark Mirror of the Protagonist One-dimensional antagonists are shallow characters, usually evil for evil's sake. For some authors, a 1D antagonist can be well-written, especially when the antagonist falls or loses, the blow feels satisfying...

Spammers clichely praise your writing blankly and include links. Spammers are kind of smart, read a few paragraphs of your chapter before complimenting you. You reply, then they send you a link. I prefer my chapter's comments column to be quiet.

No, the chapter is too short, and doesn't provide a hook. Write more chapters before asking for feedback again.
