    What’s your take on kill systems in web novels? (i.e., any mechanism where the MC gains power directly from killing, like leveling up, etc.)

    A leveling system is the bit I care about, and only when it is created and balanced really well. It should take actual genuine effort to increase stats, not just leaving it to a WoW system where stomping on a thousand ants makes someone OP :ROFLMAO: If the system is doing too much of the work...

    INCOMPLETE/ON BREAK

    There is already a feature for this in place and it already automatically sends such books into "Hiatus" status. On that note, it would be nice to have a separation of "Hiatus" (intentions to finish later) and "Discontinued" (no intention of ever touching again). > But, I don't care enough to...

    Question for writers?

    This reminds me of those fake movie production scams... ??Remember folks! If a company is offering a substantial amount of money for any reason, but then requires an initial "investment" up front, it's a hardcore scam, guaranteed.

    One of the biggest aggressor website is going down by the end of the month

    Did you mean "aggregator" or "alligator?"

    LLM is everywhere.

    We knew this was coming. This is one of many small consequences to come from AI entering the "writing" sector. Majority wanted to be able to use AI to generate free content. It is too late to turn back now... I use an older version of Word on a Windows 10. I believe yours is freezing due to...

    Using IRL Companies

    It should be fine especially if you don't hold them in any negative light. By technicality, it can become a legal issue, but if it ever does, that very same company would be unable to hide the fact that they would be trying to ruin some random author's life for simply mentioning their...

    Is there a way to write a mind control story that's not a harem?

    I would like to see mind control by means of memory corruption. Tamper with someone's own memories to make them think they are serving someone according to what isn't actually correct, but leave enough possibility to struggle through and understand that it doesn't all make sense or add up...

    Question re: word, libreoffice, etc

    It has something to do with the operating system and a search feature. Tech savvy as I am, this is not something I have paid too much attention to, but I believe this is either an option inside the "Windows Search" somewhere, an Active-X configuration, or a kernel-level feature (since some...

    Question re: word, libreoffice, etc

    Depending on which system you have, Microsoft (and in some instances of Linux) has a search function which will search for what you type inside the content rather than the file name. Is this what you mean?

    Overlap 2 Final Update

    Thanks, and no worries, I do remember your presence. (How could I ever forget about a Black Butler fan? I can't ~ that simple ?) How was your break? (assuming you have taken one?)

    WHAT WOULD YOU DO? (to my fellow fiction writers as well as others)

    "Papers please!" They would make a new license card there anyway. License required to execute magic. Long as I got my music player I'll be good to go.

    WHAT WOULD YOU DO? (to my fellow fiction writers as well as others)

    It depends on your context. This reads to me like it relies on the rules of our own worlds, and if so, I would be able to use magic like everyone else, though everyone also starts at 5 ME stats anyway. If I couldn't use magic in a magic world, what would be the point?

    Overlap 2 Final Update

    The final chapters we are willing to do for OV2 are about to release soon. For any who missed the previous note, I shall reiterate here in summary: Chapter 89 and 90 will be released today in rapid succession. Chapter 90 is technically more than 100 sub-chapter parts which all link together...

    Poll ~ Readers only (Paranormal Genre)

    This regards whether or not readers would prefer getting started now without waiting for a longer backlog or not. Currently a total of 2 chapters (plus a brief intro) are ready. Keep in mind, regardless of which decision is made, all future releases of chapters will happen quite slowly and...

    Post your Beautiful Story Covers here!

    It won't let me post the picture here, so I'll just comment and let my signature do the work. Particularly the new cover is for the Missing Link Miniseries.

    In particular, those who use AI to generate entire plots/books for them and pretend like it is their own hard work.

    Practicing Pokémon World-Building, But ChatGPT Suddenly Changed Personality?

    You use Chat GPT to write? Thanks for letting me know what to avoid.

    What is the Hardest Genre to Write?

    Hot Steamy Romance ~ due to lack of practice writing this kind I suppose. Smut ~ it is hard not to nut before finishing a few sentences, so not much ever gets done. I avoid these genres for these reasons. I seem to excel in fantasy though.

    I have finally done it! Two whole chapters!

    It is taking me forever to put together any details for that paranormal non-fiction I mentioned before. As it stands, I am curious (to Readers) what would be most preferred. Should I just publish them very soon and have a long wait for future chapters (since it will take a while and not have a...
