Is their a way to filter tags like you can filter genre's? I feel like it would be very helpful to get rid of unwanted tags I don't want to see.

As said before a spear is probably the most practical option, but one tool you almost never see an mc use despite how well know and useful it would be is a shield. Shields are immensely practical and could save your life a dozen times over but due to author being lazy they just give their...

Cry of the Mer, it's a series on RoyalRoad. It's main selling point is the character interactions and the emotional beats it makes you feel. As far as I can tell it checks off most of your genre requirements except for perhaps romance and it doesn't have very much action. Just a warning though...

I would argue that medieval settings are underused since half the people don't actually know what such a setting would actually be like and substitute their lack of knowledge with "magic" and pretending the rest of their beliefs match modern times.

The only time I ever say I'm dropping a series if I enjoyed the story at first and was a big fan of it, but then there was a large quality drop that never right's itself, or the story was always passable at best but I knew if the author applied a little more effort the story could improve by...

I feel like my initial message got muddled up. My whole point is this, I still feel like banned users not being able to review isn't the best option but I'll go into more details. I don't have a lot of animosity towards the person who banned me even if I think the ban was stupid in fact the...

That's an idealist's vision not one of reality. looks good on paper but not so much in practice. You can't stop people from judging a work and the more you try the more people dislike it and work to circumvent it. It doesn't matter if it's free the work is out in the public.

If an author didn't want reviews and comments then they shouldn't post it on the internet for all to see and judge. To borrow his analogy If you open a restaurant to the public expect some bad reviews.

I can see where you're coming from and while I was going to leave a fair review(probably would have been 3 1/2 or 4 stars) I can see how hard feeling can affect it since I purposefully made sure before hand I wasn't going to let feeling like that affect me.(before I found out I couldn't even...

I think authors need to be challenged when readers feel something doesn't make sense or they face the risk of not growing as an author. Trial by fire if you will. They need to A. grow from mistakes, and learn to take reader discontent or B. never improve their writing

It's called a review, I'm not complaining about him deleting my comment I'm saying being banned from leaving a review ruins the entire point of it. A lot of people look at the reviews and rating to see if something is worth reading and say if the author has the ability to make sure only positive...

A little while ago I was commenting on a story I was reading talking about how I didn't think certain parts of it were realistic or could have been done better. Low and behold the author doesn't like critics and banned me from commenting on their chapters. I wasn't excessively rude or anything...

My argument is the fact that authors use it as a crutch for no good reason and poorly develop it, I fail to see what dragging an old book into the argument will accomplish.

... that basically is my title.

(I posted this on royal road's forums and I've gotten some feedback with it so I'm copy/pasting it here to see what people here think.) This is a cliche many authors on this site(and other sites) use a crutch in order for them to lazily give their main character way too much power or knowledge...

I would just recommend you dig into folklore and go from there. Plenty of unique and amazing monsters already exist and aren't too mainstream if you just do a little digging.

p.s. I also recommend Exiled kingdoms. It has a free and paid version but both are worth it. imo

I recently discovered an app/website that I want to strongly recommend to everyone here especially since we're on scribblehub It's called AIdungeon and it's a text-based adventure game where you can choose your own adventure literally. You have several genres that you can choose from like...

So, I've written a few reviews for a select few books. When I finish a review It acts like it's been posted but even though I can see my review on my end the novel says that it has 0 reviews plus if I go into incognito mode it doesn't show up on the reviews tab. It's not like it's only because...
