    Recommendations Recommend me some novels or manga with old, badass MCs.

    Damn. Beat me to it. The manliest story ever. I heard a woman read it once and grew a beard when she finished. Highly recommend if you haven't read it already.

    What is your advice to new writers or aspiring one

    Learn to analyze and reflect on why something works when it does. Dig deep. That's how you learn. And don't forget to implement what you've learned in your writing right away. That's how you gain experience. Also, be wary of any writing advice you receive. Most of them are bullshit, maybe even...

    Life and death question..

    I have no experience in translation whatsoever, but in terms of business, percentage commission rate has more potential and can bring you some big money if the product does well in terms of sales. But for someone new to the job, I think it's better to start with a fixed service cost.

    Rest days (Workout question)

    Resting your muscles is necessary, but one downside is that it can kill the momentum. If you're a master procrastinator like me, you're fucked. Will power can only get you so far. To keep the momentum going, you can try exercising every day but with different muscle groups each day. That's why...

    I have a question for people who know about psychology/psychiatry.

    If it hinders your life, then you should go see the professional. Don't worry. They're not gonna lock you up or anything. Just go seek professional help or advice.

    Protagonist's fursona

    Silver wolf. Always thought it looks cool. Another one is probably dragon. But in terms of animal characteristics, now that you think about it, dragons are just giant lizards.

    Book dumping

    You can just schedule the daily release, set the timer, and be done with it. Or if you're quite established on other sites already, you can dump them all at once if you want.

    Give me your nest suggestions

    Dragon nest sounds good. You know, on the mountains and stuff. Inside caves with piles and piles of gold and jewelries.

    How do you make a Light Novel popular?

    If you want to post it online, go for the web serial structure. Serial is quite different from your usual published novels, be it light novels or traditional ones. Think of it as more like a TV Show or seasonal anime. You usually have an overarching plot that spans from beginning to end, which...

    How much should I plan ahead for a novel?

    It's all about the final product and consistency. I'd assume you already have an ideal product in mind, the kind of book you want to write. Then, you can just do whatever you want, as long as it results in that exact product. Find the process that feels right to you and you alone. If you like...

    The limits of a writer's imagination: Can Characters Surpass Their Creators in Intelligence?

    Say, I write a scene where a genius character recites the decimal result of Pi indefinitely. I can't do that (actually, I can, but I have to think about it and carefully calculate in my head). But this guy is inhumanly intelligent and can just recite it the first time he learns about it. As an...

    Don't care. I like it, I steal it. And make it mine.

    Do you feel intense cringe when the novel MC swears?

    Your example is quite appropriate. The character is in a pinch and feels frustrated. Nothing unusual. I love curses in fiction, but not when it gets thrown around left and right. Usually, it's either to show anger or for comedy. Showing anger is just like in your example. For comedy is, for...
