I recently rewrote redneck isekai. I put the previous chapters together in a single draft document, put a link up, and started fresh with prior chapters hidden.

If you can nail the worldbuilding then go for it, it sounds more compelling than power fantasy harem fics we get on the daily

That sounds like being a homosexual with extra steps and half the assets you need to make that orientation work.

It's easier to make a list of things that magic can't do. In mine, it cannot violate Sacred Law or the user's Disposition. Sacred Law is simple. Some stuff is forbidden either because the cost to do it is too taxing, too vulgar or because it brings the wrath of God down on the user. There's a...

Well you're one step above Oedipus.

Isn't she cute?

Good doggies

I was in this same boat. I elected to just hide my first version with a disclaimer in the description and start republishing it as if nothing else happened. Yeah it keeps the view count up but im not lying and dking it to pad my views

I drive a flatbed semi truck. Traveling is work.

I nominate my protagonist of Redneck Isekai. His five feats are as follows, as he is an entirely ordinary human being with no magical powers whatsoever. He survives a blow to the head from falling into a river. He squats 300 lbs with no assistance He fires on a 6 inch target from a distance...

He looks like a dweeb.

Look I'll pull bad drafts on the acknowledgement that they're not very good, but changing your online presence? Really? That's just flimsy, if you did something stupid and dumb, own it, improve, and do better. Reasonable people will give you multiple chances, and the majority of your readers are...

First, write a good series. It's true that there is some absolute slop out there that people will eat up. BUT, you don't have to write slop. Treat your readers like they have a modicum of intelligence. Two, be consistent. Releasing a chapter every other month doesn't get any buzz. Releasing a...

Mud wrestle the queen, she is a woman and thus smaller than me, I could easily defeat her

This would be good advice if they vacationed down south. New York's gun laws suck. Shoulda gone to Combat Park in Alabama. Play paintball, drive tanks.

The sequel to Don Quixote stars the author hunting down a copyright troll so he can square away his rights to sell the novel. It was written in the 17th century. Shakespeare's soliloquies are literally the character sitting the audience down and spilling their guts out. It was written before...

Bad 4th wall breaks are obnoxious and unwelcome. Good 4th wall breaks are Shakespearian. Most 4th wall breaks are bad. Just like every other item in the toolbox, it's the usage that matters. Are you curious how a 4th wall break works in fiction? I mean, shit, read up on any number of...

Well, you can hunt hogs from helicopters in texas, and that's pretty badass

This is bad advice. For one, colorblind people will not like it. For two, it's obnoxious depending on site theme. This man spreads lies.

I think an interesting way to do it, in a 1st-person "stream of consciousness" story, is to just have invasive thoughts appear in the prose. However, one rule for non-spoken "dialogue" (oxymoronic) is that quotations mean people speaking. Just about anything works just so long as you aren't...
