To add to that, self-insert can also not be limited to just you as yourself but also how you perceive yourself or how you wish to be. This is why a lot of self-inserts end up being wish fulfillment. Your ideal self. To be fair, I find that actually normal where a lot of readers read so many...

I prefer not to self-insert, that said, I have given characters "some" traits of people I know and myself to make them more realistic/authentic. Specifically the flaws. This way, I try to avoid forced unrealistic plots "as much as possible" (Cause you know, nobody is perfect, except for cats who...

I don't know about that... on one side you have Hell which is pretty much endless torture for eternity. On the other side you have heaven where you pretty much spend an eternity in a place where you have to behave in a strict society without committing a single sin and be merrily singing for all...

Like all things in life, the more used to you are to doing something, the more proficient you are at it.

This is precisely why editing/consistency checking takes more time then writing out chapters. And also for the reason that authors have to keep a large file of all the details to make sure there are as little plot holes as possible. Well, that is if you care about that (not all do) But sure...

What part of the TOS does it violate? Unless you plan on uploading images you have no copyright rights to, or the images are somehow offensive/abusive. Well technically, pretty much every fantasy novel here violates the TOS due to this line "Contains any information or content that you know is...

Uhm, why would you want manga format? First of all, the right to left for manga was made due to Kanji. It isn't even relevant today but was simply kept for tradition. The traditional reading format for both US comics and Japanese manga was made for magazines. Vertical scroll is the most...

I draw the covers fully myself. Though truth be told I suck at drawing people so they come out so and so due to it having people in them :/ But most important thing I feel they lack is "life". I've tried from time to time but still can't get it down to drawing people well... Yes and no. Krita...

Maybe, but the request was how to take over a kingdom without politics, not what happens after. So I figure the request is simply they didn't want to get too political and just wanted it as a backstory. For all we know, after taking over the kingdom, the actual story has little to do with...

You are looking for a method to overthrow a kingdom without politics or war? Some methods are: 1) Kingdom was about to collapse, all the nobles tried to escape but died 2) Being a hero, then king dies with only a baby as the heir. Then the hero "temporary takes over" and the baby pretty much...

Cat videos are important study material! Also, do writing projects that are written in programming languages count?

That is what assets are for. Of course since many assets are paid, most indie probably won't go for them and will make simple ones or use the free ones. So it is a matter of what kind of assets they include for free or what kind of assets are available for free. That said, overall, there are a...

Judging by those details, it sounds like maybe the issue you are having is that you are jumping from A to B. A story in general should go up a ramp on a climax, then wrap up with an anticlimax. You know like this: While you don't need to exactly follow that, understand you need to build up...

Math is important for many forms of programming. For example, without knowing math it is kind of hard to work with gui transformations, gaming , robotics and other things. But not all programming is math heavy. If your aiming for say a web programmer or making non-gaming apps. Math isn't that...

And that's where things start to go all wrong. With a few more levels you soon realize that proofreading ends up taking 10X the time it takes to write it.

When you post a new chapter, you show up on NovelUpdates under featured. That generates a ton more clicks than the front page does unless maybe you are trending. To put it into perspective, according to Alexa, 47.8% of ScribbleHub traffic is from NovelUpdates.

These days, you don't even need to be a developer. RPG Maker and VN Maker make the process pretty straight forward with little to no programming knowledge. Unless you plan to do something unique that can't be solved with plugins. The real bottleneck for games is they need a ton of art.

Most views most likely come from NovelUpdates when you get featured. They then click on the chapters. I highly doubt many use the front page unless you are trending or something.

I think you have thing backwards. If people are abusing the system, then the correct thing is to fix the abuses. If you start creating criteria for special featuring, people will still complain about them not being featured or etc. Not to mention, new stories do get featured. Now of course some...

Get a cat, worship it as your overlord! On less important advice then the above: 1) Don't read while lying in bed, it might seem comfortable now but you'll pay for it 2) Don't sit all day either 3) Make sure you get proper amount of sleep. The body heals and resorts your brain when you...
