    Writing How does a moral antagonist (3D) end up as a dark mirror of the protagonist?

    Coming back to this, I think it's interesting to think about "Retributive Justice" vs "Rehabilitative Justice" vs "No Justice" in this context. Retributive Justice says "someone who had done wrong must be punished with equal or greater punishment than the wrongs they did". A thief's hand is cut...

    Writing How does a moral antagonist (3D) end up as a dark mirror of the protagonist?

    Enemies to lovers with the protagonist! (Really, it depends on what kind of story you're writing.)

    How do you describe something to make sure it's not too wordy?

    If you're narrating in the person, I'd mostly describe the orange juice as much as the character in question would care about it if not plot-relevant. If orange juice isn't a big deal, you can just stop at "glass of orange juice" on the table. If they've never had orange juice, are an orange...

    Writing idk how to start writing

    I'd advise writing "throwaway" short stories if you care about these big ones too much. Try out different things, any stupid idea that amuses you, things you want to try your hand at writing, little pieces of bigger ideas to see if you like writing them as much as you think. Limit your scope a...

    Recommendations Looking for girl's love webnovels

    Self-shilling, you say... An Inclement Proposal is so far pretty short for a webnovel, but is a romance where a goddess pretends to be a helpless human and gets dominated by an ethically questionable witch. I Was A Hero In Another World But My Dog-Girl Slave Swapped Places With Me And Now I...

    I Don’t Know What To Write…

    Yeah, you would have to keep the whole trilogy a secret if you wanted to keep that one book a secret. But if you aren't good at keeping secrets, people'll find out about your kinky/lewd side sooner or later anyways.

    I Don’t Know What To Write…

    Could just make an account totally separated from your IRL identity and never tell anyone about it if you really wanna keep it a secret?

    Non-underdog stories?

    There's plenty of stories were the protagonist is super powerful or attractive or has a ton of money, it just doesn't tend to be the struggle the story is about as much, because they focus on the struggle-- deciding what to do with their power, deciding what powerful faction(s) to side with to...

    What are some general tips on how to write good original fiction?

    It's more likely that you aren't getting worse, and rather, that your taste in writing is outpacing your skill in writing. This is a normal -- if painful -- part of getting better at writing. Only way I know of is to go through it and keep writing. Maybe try out writing short stories with...

    What’s the net effect of the internet on humanity?

    That it's become super commercialized over the years is not great. The way most corporate-owned social media are relentlessly promoting "engagement", meaning they consider endless negative interaction is a plus, not a minus, is not great. That it is a variety of very addictive drugs for people...

    How many of you actually manually use em-dashes?

    I use EM dashes liberally -- I find them useful for interjecting thoughts that are at once relevant and offtopic -- but hearing they're a favored tool of AI makes me sad. Well, I usually use "--" instead of literally EM-dash because it's easier to type and everyone knows what I mean anyways...

    Recommendations LF Harem with no yuri

    If you aren't having much luck on Scribblehub, I'd maybe try some translated historical-setting harem out on other sites-- pretty sure I've seen multiple Chinese-written and Korean-written imperial harem setting light novels and webcomics with no yuri? ...of course, they tend to resolve the...

    Polycule tag

    Polyamory tag was already at +15 votes a year and a half ago when I tagged Tony on it-- it just had a brief negative spike at the beginning.
