I just start up a new document and write another quirky idea for another worldbuilding project until EVENTUALLY I cycle through enough projects that I round back to the one I worked on and actually get shit done. For me, the record is 8 projects, bordering 9, before I finally got back to working...

I agree with ranking things based on the potential damage a monster could cause. Even then, tying the rankings to established catastrophes would do a better job of portraying the danger of any monster far better than a rank could.

I THOUGHT TILTING YOUR HEAD IN CONFUSION WAS NORMAL ??? I also feel like I subconsciously assign everyone a vague anime face because Im terrible with them irl and I can only recognize anime characters. Always a treat when I see my friends faces once in a while and I have to work out the...

Strings. Hellsing ultimate Walter was fucking insane with strings.

It's difficult but sometimes there are entire chapters that just don't fit right/don't fit the vision I would want it to go so if I've already spent way too much time on it I'll just scrap it and try again, and if I haven't spent way too many hours on it I'll just move on. Rather something that...

I put my head on the pillow and I'm gone. I feel blessed whenever I see my friends taking Melatonin lol.

Step 1: Have a plan/concepts of a plan Step 2: Jot down all the little juicy plot points Step 3: Go more into detail into the worldbuilding, explore a character here, expand on an area there Step 4: ??? Step 5: Drop the story because while you had 10 pages worth of lore and how the world works...

I believe it was either: Supreme Magus, The Legendary Mechanic, or Martial World that first made me want to start writing, mostly because I had different ideas on how the story should've proceeded. (Just minor things.) Though what got me into reading in general was the Percy Jackson series. Rick...

That sounds pretty cool... and kinda reminds me of Tree of Aeons, with the "getting powers back from the dead heroes" type thing. Making heaven/the upper worlds a 9-5 job for gods and the starter ones are all on tech support is a funny thought.

Lol, I read this thread while having done absolutely no work on my novel even after a month

Black White Red

Redirecting your personal misfortune on everybody else you know, come into contact with, or are just nearby. The degree of misfortune scales with how much you know them, how close they are to you (both physically, and in relationships), and how much you value them. If you try to seclude...

I love illusion magic as a concept, just imagine trolling your opponents so hard that if they ever survive their encounter they'll be forever second-guessing themselves and sleeping with one eye open. It really is only as good as the author makes it to be, but it could fall under gaslighting...

Chocolate. If you give chocolate to trick or treaters you automatically get brownie points in the afterlife. Sorry, don't make the rules ?‍♀️

Here's to hoping gay marriage is still legal in a few years so I can still get the tax benefits ?

?

I knew this thread was gonna be at least a bit sour but I didn't expect full-on Incels ?

Marrying for tax benefits is a legitimate thing, and the tax cut it gives you is pretty chunky... so If I cant find someone Im literally going to ask one of my bros :>

That would actually be an extremely funny premise, the "teenage" elf pretending to be scared by the big bad because their human friends are (they need to fit in), even though they were in no real danger because of the gigantic fucking death ray in orbit ready to laser anything that is a threat.

Yeah, it's really up to the author to do what they wish with Half-Elves. I personally like them being stronger than purebloods, because they incorporate the versatility and ingenuity of humanity with the raw overwhelming power of Elves.
