    Recommendations Any stories where the strategy is the main focus?

    Here are some requirements: - Smart and strategic MC - Hard magic system that can be abused to one's advantage (a literal gaming system is fine as well) - MC is a leader of a team or group (preferable but optional) - Romance (optional) - Harem (optional) - Smut (optional) Thanks in advance.

    A really serious question this time, promise.

    When it comes to the descriptions of sexual organs in smut, do you prefer direct, vulgar terms (you know, the P, the D, the C, the V, and all that) or do you prefer metaphors (rod, honeypot, holy water, etc.)?

    Serious question.

    Okay. I'm not sure if this is allowed here or not, but... when you read smut, do you hold your phone with one hand?

    How organized is your outline?

    For those of you who outline and plan your story before you write, how organized is your outline? Do you have a system you rely on, or do you just go with the flow and organize it in a way that only you and you alone know what the hell is going on?

    What do you think about a twist on a familiar trope that completely changes its fundamental essense?

    Take vampire, for example. This is an iconic trope that has been done a lot. Even people who aren't particularly into fantasy know what it is. We know they're creatures of the night, weak against sunlight, and suck blood to survive. But what if I completely change the essence of it? For example...

    Do you think reading bad prose will make your prose bad?

    I don't read as many fan-translated stuff as I used to simply because of bad grammar and awkward sentences. In fact, I actively avoid it even though there are many cool-looking stories begging me to check them out. If I give in, though, I often find myself editing the errors in my head more than...

    Do you think high expectations kill your enjoyment of a story?

    I'd never involved myself in any community like I have lately, especially the anime community—or fiction in general. At most, when I was in school, me and my friends would talk about some anime, sing some OP songs, and recommend one or two to each other. But that's it. Not too long ago, I...

    Any of you ever got burnt out with reading?

    I think I'm burnt out with reading. Nothing seems interesting to me anymore. It's not a depression per se, but I find more interest in anime and movie lately, and reading feels like a chore. I used to read a lot, sometimes all day and all night long. I was obsessed, but now it's not fun...

    What do the 70s, 80s, 90s anime songs make you think of?

    When listening to those oldies, I always think of a sunny day with an old-school style anime character walking on a sidewalk beside a beach with gulls fluttering in the sky. Kind of like that scene in the first few episodes of Saint Seiya. Then I'm filled with an intense nostalgia. What about...

    Do sad, tragic stories make you depressed?

    A guy recommended me watching Angel Beats, which I know have a sad ending. In fact, I've been putting this one off for almost a decade now. I've read that tragedy and sad ending are a good way to give you a sense of catharsis, releasing all the pent up emotions. But I've also read that some...

    I'm bored V.2 (to authors)

    How do you usually visualize the story when you write? Do you see it as a movie? Anime? Semi-realistic? Comics/manga? Real life? Video game? Or maybe you don't visualize and only focus on the words?

    I'm bored.

    Recommend me some of your most exciting novels, manga/manhwa, anime, or movies/series. Maybe things that you revisit over and over again and they still inspire you. Thanks.

    What's the horniest story you've ever read?

    Not sure if I can ask this, but I'll ask anyway. Gimme some of the spiciest smut you've ever read.

    How ruthless are you when it comes to DNFing stuff?

    I have a nasty habit of accumulating stuff I wanna see—movies, shows, novels, anime, manga, etc.—but ending up not seeing any of them. I feel like I have to wait for the right moment to watch the show I find the most interesting, so in the meantime I'd better get the "lesser" things over with...

    About Patreon.

    Say, you offer 10 advanced chapters for a tier, and you update three chapters a week, does that mean every time a new chapter releases as per schedule, you need to add one more advanced chapter on Patreon? Or do you do it monthly?

    I've just watched Lord of the Rings for the first time. Wasn't impressed...

    I've heard the name Lord of the Rings for a long time but hadn't quite gotten to it until yesterday. Now, a few days before I'd finished all of the Hobbit trilogy. They certainly get a bad rep, and for good reasons. I found myself getting bored most of the time, but there were also moments when...
