    Can we have an OELN tag?

    Hans, we've never spoken, but I do read what you write and respect you. I'm giving you the counter because no one else is. I don't think this makes sense. On Syosetu, do they have a tag for "LN?" No. They don't. This doesn't make sense on a webserial platform. If you're on Amazon, it's...

    Anyone ever launch the idea of coordination amongst authors here?

    Okay, glad for your response and I'm seeing the critical point I wanted. Yes, once you come back and use it deliberately, it'll be good. And regarding having fun when posting, I think you should. Just pick your battles. If things get too heated and you need a point to come across, remember where...

    Anyone ever launch the idea of coordination amongst authors here?

    okay. glad you took this well, and im not happy to hear you get called schizo, because i end up reviewing a lot of people who work the way you do and I get it. But okay, you're still not catching the problem entirely. So, we'll go back after I say one good thing: I said you would be good at...

    Anyone ever launch the idea of coordination amongst authors here?

    Is Merry's Present not yours? I checked chapter 10. And no. I can 100% put my finger on it. Assuming that Merry's Present is yours, I can give you the list. And given that you're asking, I'll put it here. This is all from that chapter. The victim? Entered therapy eventually. And the story the...

    Anyone ever launch the idea of coordination amongst authors here?

    So, Tina, I will say I think the general idea of an alliance is cool. I think Apathy is the biggest enemy. For the people bringing up morals and integrity, I disagree on the more shallow end. I pay for an unfair advantage on Amazon through ads. Others have street teams for their in person...

    Writing How does one get better at writing (as a non-native English speaker)?

    How did you get better at writing? Sailus is right that you need to read more good english stories. You can't learn school english. You need to learn the english of the day. Reading good books teaches you the most optimal form of english, depending on genre. Are there any sites/courses or...

    How much dating a person could go through in life

    You guys all make it sound like we're in the 80's. It's the age of smartphones and body counts exceeding 200. In the case that you somehow can't remember people's faces, despite all of us being extreme consumers of fiction and able to recall hundreds of characters, you have your smartphone. You...

    Any harem writers go all the way to the MC having kids with his harem?

    I think about it but I don't know yet. Kids are such handfuls unless you unload them on grandparents and nannies XD But yeah, it's definitely fun to think about. I do love the idea about the kids developing hierarchies for mothers like: Mom A is the person to go to for food Mom B is the nicest...

    For harem writers, how do you decide which girls actually get into a relationship with the MC?

    And I think this the approach to go for. Looking at trends that a publisher like Kadokawa promotes, we know this approach is the most profitable. Girls get their own arcs. Thankfully, we also know serialized novel readers crave length, so this isn't bad if everyone knows they're reading a harem...

    For harem writers, how do you decide which girls actually get into a relationship with the MC?

    Thanks to the alternate timeline storyline, we already know how this is going to go and who has Issei's children first, on top of how those children could relate to Issei and their mothers. Honestly, highschool DxD is a product of its time, but it has done a lot for harem light novels in the...

    For harem writers, how do you decide which girls actually get into a relationship with the MC?

    But... You could. 8 harem members isn't hard. It just changes the style of the story if you go for a big amount. Have you read any of the guys that do western harem lit? I know a few of them go into many. I also know that according to polls some of the more vocal readers, some of the sweet spots...

    For harem writers, how do you decide which girls actually get into a relationship with the MC?

    I write harem and make money doing it. A lot of times, I just know which ones are going to end up with him before writing. A lot of times, the girls have a different dynamic so that they have a set of behaviors that can be pretty quickly associated to them. In that sense, I don't put girls with...

    Amazon KDP page limitations suck!

    Did you try making the print font smaller? The more words you have, the more exponential the effect. Just have to cover the most basic solutions before moving on with options.

    Do Instinctive Writers Exist?

    100 % pantsing. The other side of the spectrum is plotters.

    inverse conversation

    Yeah, this shortage is wild. Mr Randy, Mr Simon, and Mr Paul were lined up outside head office. They were all sweating, like a mighty amount.
