I once named a character "Alaska" and it wasn't until I showed it to a beta reader that I remembered where that word came from.

I just spent an hour writing and rewriting this, and I'm still not convinced it works. It's for a new class I came up with for one of my characters called a Sniper Cleric. Basically, he crafts special arrows that don't deal damage, but instead explode into clouds of healing powder. What do you...

You mean the one where a plane goes back in time and an army of mutant meatballs eat the planet?

Simple question. What's the scariest book you've ever read? For me, it's probably Annihilation by Jeff Vandermeer. I've always loved Lovecraftian horror, and Annihilation was like if The Color Out of Space was extended into a full novel, and the color's influence had spread to cover an entire...

Slightly off topic but I just had to share this. I posted this thread on the litrpg subreddit too, and was rewarded with one of the most hilariously stupid things I've ever read:

The what?

Without going too deep into it, the litrpg I'm writing is about the world being remade into an RPG system. 99% of the population is turned into NPCs who can only act and speak according to the "script" that's programmed into their brains.

The thing is, they're not supposed to be that deep. They're an NPC race, which means they have just enough depth to look real on the surface, but when you interact with them you realize they're as wide as an ocean and as deep as a puddle.

Then you rewrite it and read it out loud again. Repeat until it no longer feels stiff.

I was born in Lemuria, but I moved to R'lyeh in my twenties for work.

No. I am you.

I have two and a half questions: 1. Has there ever been, like, a survey to determine what the average age of litrpg readers is? 1 1/2. If not, do we at least know if it skews more toward older or younger readers? 2. If the majority of readers are younger, will they be open to reading about an...

Me: "I want a new profile pic. Hey chatgpt, generate a cartoon image of an angry badger wearing army camo eating a grenade sandwich ." Chatgpt: Me: "That's pretty good, but redraw it so that his hands aren't inside the sandwich." Chatgpt: Me:
