    Historical Fantasy Gripe: 'The Smart MC'

    Also speaking of said review I am trying to at least read up your current novel about the Elf Saint @Hans.Trondheim. Look forward to my review of the series, as it will also be a talk on isekai in general.

    Historical Fantasy Gripe: 'The Smart MC'

    You are sorely mistaken if you think I am speaking about your work Hans. I genuinely like your series. Hell I was going to use your story as this character type done right.

    Historical Fantasy Gripe: 'The Smart MC'

    It is has been increasingly obvious to me as of late I am not a big fan of the 'smart MC' in historical fantasy, specifically in an isekai setting. When being a mage isn't an option these 'powerless' MCs will use modern day knowledge to their advantage in these fantasy worlds. Whether it be...

    Writing General Writing Tips

    Have you tried allotting time for yourself when it comes to writing? Try asking a family member or babysitter to help with the child during certain days for a set time that is good for you. If you manage to cut out blocs of time for yourself it could probably help with the stress. The main...

    Writing General Writing Tips

    Here are some tips and tricks to help boost your writing in general: Being Self-Aware doesn't make your work free from scrutiny, acknowledging a common trope and continuing on adds nothing to the story. Deconstructions or subversions are NOT inherently edgy or evil nor does it make it...

    Is Anyone Else Annoyed By The Sound Of Children?

    Kids are fine, entitled brats aren't. Though as much as my lizard brain wants to assert dominance by punting them into the stratosphere I have to calm myself and realize they probably just have poor impulse control.

    What’s the Difference Between Adult and Mature?

    These can best be explain via music analogies: Adult themes are the drugs, sex, explicit words in a song. Mature themes are the life lessons and deeper understanding behind the lyrics.

    Never argue with an idiot, they'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience -- Mark Twain This quote has never more resonated than me working around people that are WAY too comfortable around fire and boiling oil. Especially when they grab the inside of the oven without gloves.

    Reader Reception: SH vs RR! (rant warning: f-bombs abound)

    You make a good point, and besides a bit of bickering the communities seem to get along. At least we aren't the pay to win roulette that is Webnovel or the fanfiction hell of Wattpad.

    Reader Reception: SH vs RR! (rant warning: f-bombs abound)

    To be perfectly honest I understand where you are coming from. Can't really stand the elitist attitude many have got over there or their absolute dick riding on the litRPG genre. But I believe it gives people the idea of a skill floor over there, you know, a minimum amount of competence before...

    Which would make a better ending?

    How about a third option Paul? Like say he defeats the big bad and seemingly destroys the villain along with himself. Cuts to a meeting of the hero's party departing after mourning their friend and heading back to their original timelines to live out a peaceful life. And it shows snippets of...

    writing a fight

    The level of detail should be equivalent to relevance to plot and to your story's core themes in most cases. A stereotypical isekai fantasy doesn't really need over the top detail in every fight. Especially if they have the 'OP MC' tag.
