    How to write an r18 story??

    do you want to write a r-18 story or a r-18 chapter? if it's the latter, you don't really have to be too specific because it's not your main focus anyway. And research (first hand or iykyk) is always recommended when writing unfamiliar scenes

    Help me to choose protag in time travel story

    This is purely my opinion, but this forum is mostly populated by authors, not readers, so this isn't an accurate representation of SH. If you want to write for people, it's better to check out the rising/trending stories that are related to your story and see what makes them popular. Well, if...

    Boost the number of readers

    I vary my posting times just to cover as much timezones as possible, but tbh it doesn't really matter from what I can tell so far because the view count somewhat plateaus after 3-4 hours of updating and the rest of the day I just stare at my stagnant stats sadly. And yes, you should see where...

    While on the toilet: Characters alignment

    I don't really plan moral compasses/ alignments for my characters, but rather I just keep asking myself if their actions seem logical in the big picture based on their backstories. Feel like that makes my characters more human rather than having strict boundaries dictating what they will do in...

    Is there anyone who got inspired from movie/anime rather than from reading?

    My upcoming arc takes place in a fantasy China-like setting (like wuxia novels), not because I read said wuxia novels, but because I enjoyed watching Rush Hour as a kid lol

    Something weird is going on with my stats

    With the exception of the latest day because it hasn't updated, in the last 2 days I have more traffic to my story than...when my story was on the frontpage? Maybe I'm just being paranoid but I feel like this isn't normal, can anyone possibly tell me what is going on? (I'm obsessed with...

    A funny experience with a fan translation

    This is purely just for me to share my recent experience with a fan translation and also ask how did you guys deal with fan translations (if you dealt with them) I chanced upon this website https://tl.rulate.ru/ where some Russian was translating my work without my knowledge.

    Writing Advice for naming characters

    Chinese names are usually made up of one to two characters with their own separate meanings. My advice would be to find the chinese word for whatever english name you have in mind, then using its pinyin as the name of your MC. Although the same pinyin can mean a variety of characters, I'm sure...

    i need help regarding this topic

    This is slightly different than what most authors do, but I usually pair my characters' names with their personality. Just taking an example from my current work: my MC's name is Shun. Unless you know Asian names well, you will probably think of the English definition instead. And MC is a loner...

    What do you think about minimalistic style of writing?

    My personal favourite of describing a beautiful person (although I don't dare to do it in my own story) : Words can't describe how beautiful she is. Period.

    What do you think about minimalistic style of writing?

    I'm a fan of minimalistic writing simply because I take less time to write each chapter that way. And also, I don't like telling readers exactly how the scene goes; as a reader myself, I prefer just having the general details and leaving imagination to do the rest (unless it's very important to...

    I listen to music while writing, which is best, solo piano, solo organ, or solo harpsichord music, for writing?

    I play TSFH songs on repeat while writing. Trust me, it makes you feel like you're writing the most epic story of your life just by listening to their music!
