    Why is the forum so quiet~?

    Ohko, come back to us in the discord~. The key is moderation. :blobthumbsup:

    Chapter release schedule: Do you follow one?

    I follow a relatively strict release schedule. Sometimes I delay chapters because IRL things but for the most part I stick with it. Schedules are good, in my opinion. Ignoring the exposure aspect and views, it just is a great way to get you to write. Many aspiring writers have the problem of...

    Do you enjoy long books or short ones?

    I love long ones, especially books that have an entire series. I'm often disappointed when reading a book and finishing it only to discover that that was the only book and there's no continuation. Sometimes its for the best, but I love series. I've read five hundred page books in a few hours so...

    Writing How to Make Conversation Between 3+ People Less Repetitive?

    Writing dialogue can be complicated but is actually manageable if you realize that readers are actively thinking when they read. There’s no need to put he said she said continuously every line. You might think you need to as it’s a conversation between more than two people, but if you really...

    Readers are degenerate, and you should be too

    And just a passing comment on preferences, I like titties just as much as the next person, but in terms of covers, I love anime ones with characters with cool or badass designs. Either that, or something calming or comforting if you know what I mean. I tried to make my cover look smooth and easy...

    Readers are degenerate, and you should be too

    That question has many answers and all depends on your target audience. In general, "professional" book covers are ones that have the greatest mass appeal and have the lowest chance of angering anyone. They're covers that can be put on shelves and not have people complain about it. They're eye...

    A site that is taking our books

    Yup. From what I can see, it only collects links. If you click on a title, the table of contents shows up but it's automatically linked to whatever website it was published on. It seems fine.

    Least Favorite but Common Tropes?

    In terms of tropes I hate, I really dislike the reincarnation to get revenge deal. It's so forced in my opinion and the entire story either just focuses on that part of story (the revenge) or it shifts and the story is completely something else. That's just bad. Tropes that I hate when...

    What should I write in the Description?

    Your synopsis is not a summary. Remember that. It's merely a hook to get your readers to become interested in the actual story. It's the first thing a potential reader sees and reads from you. So make it maybe a little mysterious or interesting but don't give out the entire plot. Give them an...

    Characterization, Fight scenes and what you get when mixing the two. Nimbus's advice for beginners.

    Character description depends entirely on the context and the character itself. Sometimes you want that one dimensional character. If the person you're describing is unimportant, don't waste time trying to give them a personality. If it's your MC, you'll have so much more time to describe who...

    How long should a regular chapter be?

    As long as it needs to be. Don't worry about the length and just write until you come to a natural break.

    Why do you write?

    I'm bored a lot of the time and have an overactive imagination. What better way to express that than to write it?

    Will You Be Writing In The NaNoWriMo Challenge?

    Maybe. I'm fairly certain that I've written that much in that time before when I started my series but when you start a series, all of your ideas are fresh and just natural come out quickly. I don't know if I can do that again without taking a break and letting my creative juices restock.

    Do You Like Plot Twists?

    The plot twist has to make sense in order for me to like it. Plot twist where something completely out of the ball park comes blaring in like some random outer space aliens in my medieval fantasy? I hate that. Plot twist like Kimi no Na wa with Mitsuha? I'm all for that.

    Writing How do romantic relationships work?

    This really depends the people involved. Is one of them shy? Bold? Perceptive? Cold? Emotional? I think you understand where I'm going with this. You have to take this into consideration before you ever write a romance. Don't make characters do things that are out of character unless you have a...

    Is nudity sufficient qualifications for a sexual content warning?

    Yeah that would work too. But if it's a recurring theme, then considering adding a mature tag.

    Is nudity sufficient qualifications for a sexual content warning?

    I recommend doing what Ai-chan said and tagging your story mature.

    The Yuri Writing Help Room (18+)

    Yes, we do~. I have some story ideas after my current one that have become yuri. I don't know why but almost every story becomes yuri once I develop it more in my head. I don't have anything against hetero relationships. Just a weird quirk of mine.
