Some random person DM'd me on RR and is asking if I'm interested in a shout swap.
What is this shout swap?

I feel like I'm very bad at writing a synopsis.
My current synopsis feels too generic for my story. But I can't think of anything else. Besides, I don't think my story's plot can be summarized in a synopsis.
What's with scammers these days... A scam comment on one of my chapters included this:
What the hell do you even mean by 'completing a story'? I've only posted 11 chapters until now.
Do scammers not have brains? How the hell is that supposed to scam anyone?
I was planning on building a large stockpile before recreating my novel, but I feel like I'm the kind of person who can only work under pressure. Since there was no deadline, I procrastinated and only made 6 chapters in the time I could've made 11 or more. So I'm gonna just go ahead and create my novel to give myself pressure.
AI Witch hunts are getting out of hand. I sometimes begin questioning myself whether my own writing feels like AI or not.
Hell, I don't use EM Dash even where I could benifit from it.
It's not that these which hunts are right or wrong, they are just stressful to new authors.
Sometimes I wish I had a sibling or a friend that had anything to do with novels or stories. Its so frustrating when you want to discuss something about your story to get outsider opinion and you have no one to talk to. I'm so envious of those people whose siblings are writers as well.
I remember seeing some people mention that if you post more than a certain number of chapters at once while creating your book on SH, then it would be flagged as spam and wouldn't appear in the new section.
I forgot the exact number. What was it?
Why the hell are cultivation/Murim novels so obsessed with the word Heaven?
I mean, they are also obsessed with words like Immortal or Demon, but Heaven is just used too much, too often. It has become a verbal tic at this point.
Literally everything has the word Heaven in its name. It's used a bit too much in conversations as well. Aren't the authors worried about repetition within the chapter?
POV: Chunnibyou God surfing the internet.
Wise man: "Don't judge a book by it's cover."
Random person: "If your cover is AI, then your story is probably written by AI too."
Chunnibyou God *tilts his head slightly*: "The Fuck?"
I was reading the content guidelines of a web novel platform, and in their prohibited action section, I found this;
- · Artificially manipulating a work's volume (word count) or chapter count
I'm now in the process of refining my 18th first chapter draft. I think this one will be good enough as my actual first chapter.
Fun Fact: I have written 17 different drafts of my first chapter so far, each one including a different incident or hook, yet I still can't decide which one to use as my first chapter. Each draft has its own strengths and weaknesses, there is no draft that is downright better than the others.
So I just can't decide on one.
I tried Audiobooks of Light Novels for the first time.
And... They suck (to me, at least).
I think reading is far more comfortable than listening to audiobooks.
I discovered an interesting little life hack.
I have pretty decent drawing and sketching skills physically, but I suck at digitally drawing. I hate complicated stuff so I didn't bother to learn.
But I recently discovered a filter in my phone called 'Sketch'.
Clicked a picture of my sketch, applied the Sketch filter, then lo and behold, you have successfully converted physical art into digital art.
I finished watching the entire To Be Hero X anime. All 24 episodes.
But I still have no idea why Moon was murdered at the end of episode 4. It's as if the creators of this anime forgot to explain that.
I was just watching To Be Hero X
And what the fuck is wrong with this anime?
Someone got murdered in the 3rd or 4th episode. But instead of following up on that murder, they are introducing character after character in each new episode, and now I'm on episode 11.
What the hell happened to the murder incident?
What's the best place for manga and light novel recommendations?
I just can't seem to find good stories according to my taste. And I'm pretty deep in both, so I've read most of the common recommendations.
I sometimes genuinely wonder whether the people are brainless or the brainless one is actually me.
Like; why the hell do people fight over the justification for a fictional character's action?
That character was written by a person not much different than them. That character isn't real.
I just can't understand. Maybe the problem is with me?
I finally finished restructuring my story. Now I'm gonna write a ton of draft.
Finally!!!
I saw a YouTuber say that Webnovel is filled with novels written entirely by ChatGPT.
I have never tried it, but it sounds like BS to me. How can AI assistants write long novels?
I mean, it's possible with dedicated AI apps, but I don't think ChatGPT or Gemenai can write long novels. If ChatGPT generates a story spanning more than 20 chapters, that story will become incomprehensible to humans. -
