    I seriously consider buying a tablet for writing

    Bit late to the party, but I use a tablet to write. If you use thumbs to type, then pick mini-tables. I'm using a cheap one from Kruger&Matz, but does it job more than well.

    2nd Person Point of View

    Second person narration doesn't exist, it's complete bullshit. It reefers to how communication happens: there are two people talking, while third is looking. Second person would be the same person as first one since both engage in the conversation and can describe it. First person narration...

    How to manage stories

    Then go even lower. There are people who post once/twice per week, and nutcracks like me who pull of 2000+ words daily with edits (not recommended for prolonged amount of time, unless you want personal phone number to writer block and burnout)

    Has anyone written a novel that reads more like a comic book?

    Are you talking about writing style or switching to other medium? Switching to other medium: Creating comics isn't easy. I've been playing around 3D software like Blender, SFM, and GMOD to create artwork. Getting the right pose can be an absolute pain in the ass, not to mention lightning...

    How to write a cultivation novel

    The cultivation story doesn't need to be in Chinese/Asian setting, and if it is then you can read any cultivation novel/manga and pick things up from it. If you're planning to go for the popular and cliche face-slapping power fantasy then here's the recipe (but keep in mind that you need to do...

    Art

    Online drawing and editing software isn't the most reliable one from my experience, and I recommend downloading normal software Krita - Very good for drawing GIMP and FireAlpaca - The editing twinity, can do practically anything under the sun.

    Designing a cover: removing text.

    Last nickles from me: If you want to edit images then I suggest downloading GIMP and Firealpaca. GIMP has tons of photo editing utilities, while Firealpaca is very good for making cutouts (it has transparent brush "color" with anti-aliasing that makes edges natural, Transformation and Mesh...

    Designing a cover: removing text.

    It's mostly redrawing skill that varies in difficulty. First image can be rather easily redrawn either manually, or through use of Warp Transform tool. Alternatively, you can just paint the with white and put in your own one (preferably expanding the dialogue box so the text will be visible...

    Do I have to be like everyone else?

    If you rack you million/month, you're on site that fakes amount of traffic like Webnovel by bumping up numbers. Even on Royal Road, the writing site with one of highest traffics, is impossible. As for earning money - It depends on how would you like to handle this. 70k/month is enough to pull...

    Writing Need feedback on synopsis, especially the catching line

    No hard feelings, but this is barely a step up from "Read to find out". There is nothing that makes it stand out of crowd or inform readers why they should even brother reading this. I've rewrote thing to focus a bit more on MC, but the basic info about the world stays because it's main point of...

    We need small limits on the rating system for the sake of new stories

    The "proper review" I'm talking about are simply reviews that aren't based on first chapter only. I might not be the best reviewer, but I at least read couple of chapters to give the story a chance. Are you now digging out dirt because you're out of arguments? I've read at least 50-60 chapters...

    We need small limits on the rating system for the sake of new stories

    I give the story a proper chance, 75 chapters. I was skipping fillers that appeared later in the story to see if it gets better, but it didn't so I dropped it. Scoreless review is there because I got false flagged as a spam account at that time, which was fixed later on Did you read that story...
