    Recommendations Any stories that feel like Terraria?

    I love Terraria. Are there any stories with similar whimsical, fun, and light tone, with lots of things to explore, lots of secrets to unravel? I love the progression fantasy aspect of it as well, where the character starts off relatively normal and then grows cool and strong as the story...

    Let's play!

    Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, there lived the greatest procrastinator. His name has changed countless times, his real name nothing but a forgotten history. For the sake of this story, we'll be calling him...

    Recommendations Any story where the mc is a badass gang leader?

    You hard it. It doesn't have to be a gang, though. But I love it when the mc is a leader of some group, gang, mafia family, organization, or a nation. I love seeing that scene where he stands there, facing the enemy's army, with his loyal servants or followers backing him up. Like I said, it...

    If you can become any fictional character, who would you choose?

    You can only choose one. Who will it be? Mine is probably Shin Wolford from Kenja no Mago. Out of all the stories I've consumed over the years, he has it very easy.

    Recommendations Any stories with classy mc?

    I love classy, suave, smooth—whatever word you wanna use—mc. One that makes a grown man gay in an instant, if there's any. Thanks.

    Any readers with OCD?

    When my OCD phase kicks in, I find myself reading the same sentences or words many times over. Not because I don't understand them or can't comprehend them, but apparently I feel like I haven't grasped and analyzed all of their meanings, yet. It happens when I'm watching movies as well...

    Recommendations Any stories about thriving in the entertainment industry?

    You know, idols, singers, comedies, musicians, composers, actors, directors, famous authors, etc.

    Why don't I care about the side characters at all?

    Whenever I read or watch something, I only care about the protagonist or the main characters—usually only the protagonist. So when the story shifts its focus to the side characters, it's like a countdown on my patience. If it goes on for too long, I lose my interest. I just wanna get back to the...

    Writing To all the litrpg authors out there, do you plan everything down to the tiny details?

    Litrpg is an interesting genre because it usually doesn't conform to the standard story structure. Okay, wait, before you argue with me that it does—as a whole—it doesn't fit perfectly if you zoom in and examine each scene or story beat. So I'm curious how do you guys plan it? What about the...

    How do you write a complex story with multiple plot lines?

    I like a story with multiple plot lines and lots of different routes to explore. It’s like I’m really living inside a whole new world with lots of different stories within. It kind of makes things more… real, somehow. I know about the story arc and such, but I’m not talking about that here. I’m...

    Recommendations Any of you ever read The Good Guys Series?

    Kind of trying to find similar story to the one I’ve mentioned in the title. You know, classic game lit, badass mc, good plot, kingdom building, and all that. Five candies for you if it’s well-written. (Pick the flavors and gimme your address. I’ll mail it to ya.) Thanks.

    If you can only choose one thing to do for the rest of your life, would you choose reading or watching?

    Aight, Imma ask this question in a den full of passionate readers: if you can only choose one thing to do for the rest of your life between reading books and watching movies/shows/anime/anything at all you can watch, what will you choose? Remember, if you pick one, you can’t do the other for the...

    You people are awesome

    In these past few months, I’ve been away from this site, spending my time reading any “serious literature“ I could find in hope of leaning something valuable about writing. Did I do it? Hell, I did. I did learn a lot about what the serious and professional writing looks like—with a bit of a mild...

    What makes a novel a novel?

    What, in your own opinion, makes a novel a novel? Also, what is a story? Like, if I info-dump something, is that considered telling a story? When we talk about “Keep the story moving” or “Get to the fucking point already!” what do we really mean by that? Are we talking about scenes? Actions...

    Let’s play a game!

    I think you all are already familiar with this game. First, I’ll give you a starting sentence, and then you write another and on and on until we have a story. Alright, I’m gonna start with: “Sam couldn’t fall asleep. The rain was pouring hard outside, making a cozy noise that sounded like a...

    I have a very serious question for all of you.

    Ahem… here’s my question: what’s your secret fetish? (Fetish: a sexual interest in an object or a part of the body other than the sexual organs.) Please give me a serious answer. Thank you.
