    A cool way to differentiate telephatic or robotic dialogue from regular spoken dialogue?

    In both of my stories I have AI that speak with brackets. A slice of dialogue from my latest chap. [We'll see how the dice roll. Anyway, go to sleep. It'll be easier to work when your body is more vulnerable and defenseless.] "That's not comforting."

    Have You Realized...

    Is that nihilism though? Being truly nihilistic almost always ends in a spiral of depression where you can't find meaning to anything and refuse to engage in life because it doesn't matter. But finding our own calling, even chilling and enjoying the moment, means that on some level we reject...

    Nyan OC

    I saw Nyan and immediately thought Nyan Cat. Who else remembers that adorable poptart?

    Your opinion on the Over Abundance of Isekai?

    Escapism? People want to imagine another world other than this one, yet they want their MC's to have their mindset so that they can self insert and properly enjoy another world from the perspective of this comparatively crappy one. Though I call it escapism, I don't feel it's a good word. We...

    Poll: Do You Believe in Luck?

    I believe in my own lack of knowledge when it comes to "lucky" situations or circumstances. Enough knowledge, and a lucky/unlucky event is only a given.

    Should all the tags/genres be added up front?

    I added in a tag later. Specifically a romance one. I added it after I had approached the romance elements of my story. But would I add in things that will very obviously point to a certain person being the wife or main heroine at the end of the story? Absolutely not. Tags can be spoilers unto...

    How to become a popular author?

    I kinda just wrote what I thought was cool, and got better at it over time. Then again, it was a generic isekai, though with a bit of scientific and philosophical elements. Also, you gotta keep writing. Keep posting chapters on a regular basis. Let your readers continue to snowball into...

    Magic and Technical elements in a war-time story

    Odd but I just recently started writing a new story. Has mechs, set in a Halo-like future, where people have inherent powers based on Dark Energy (use of these powers facilitated through mechs). I even had a war planned. Should I write it just for you?

    Reader to Writer (Author in the making)

    I remember when I first made that jump. I had read so many stories that matched my preferences that I really couldn't find anymore. And the ones I did find never really clicked with me. What really irked me was the disconnect between science and magic. Why do all magical societies have to be...

    Your Writing Milestones

    I hit my million word milestone a little while ago. Though, that was across my two works, not one work. My first work is pushing 800k words, almost as long as the harry potter series, though not nearly as high quality (doggy doodoo compared to it). We'll see if I have it in me to push it to a...
