I'm inclined to agree that it's a little of both for me. As Ben said, I'm pretty sure everyone wants good stats, good readership, and all. That's why we publish our stories online anyway. The way I see it, if we literally gave no damn about readership, we likely wouldn't be taking the step to...

When people start making manga/fan art of my stuff and having a decent viewership from it. When more people start making art of my characters and sharing them. When people start having legit waifu wars over my female characters. Doesn't have to be something that goes viral or what, but if I...

Not as much anymore since I had a bad experience with pantsing. It's actually why the 2017 version of my current series never made it past my MS Word and into the Internet, and I just quit writing outright until last year. I wrote myself into too many holes and walls doing it and had a lot of...

Ironic because I didn't like the second half of that show. I mean, the cliches I liked were there and all, but the story with the filler girl just wasn't engaging enough for me. I did like the Mayura focus episode, and I like the overall ending/epilogue, but I just feel that more stuff (the...

I think I'm in the minority in that I love them. Straight up. I can get why a lot of people don't like them tho. If it's a "genre staple" like nakama power in shounen (although not in the too in your face levels like what Fairy Tail does), or fireworks festival episodes with an interrupted...

One-note side character with a name. Occasionally gets involved with the main plot for a scene or two.

Personally, I can't see myself writing a full slice of life. I just don't have the mental creativity to keep thinking of everyday scenarios and make them engaging or funny consistently. Consistency is the key, and I don't think I have that in me. That being said, my series does have a lot of...

I think I answered most of this in some other thread. But the gist is that I enjoy watching stuff, and I want to "have something like that" that is my own. That's the short version, but there are also several reasons. I wanted to make the quarantine last year productive is one. I also want to...

You might want to edit the title. I think most people here read and write fiction. That's a given. But I read nonfiction every now and then, stuff like autobiographies of my favorite athletes or celebrities, for example.

I do at times. But I usually go straight to the author's inbox.

Maybe the currently airing Fena Pirate Princess is more up your alley

What I write. I read what I write/write what I read. Basically if it's something I would love to watch weekly or buy merch of if adapted into an anime, I'd like it. And that's how I got started into writing anyway (that and trying to make the quarantine productive). I'd want to own something...

If I imagine hard enough... it's probably gonna end up 50-50, realistically, which I wouldn't like because that would mean giving up some of my hangouts or time used to write/watch anime/play video games, which is the main reason I never thought of getting a family and kids, much less going into...

Main goals? My MC's more of the reactive type. If anything, it's probably living on and maintaining the status quo with his friends and classmates at the start. At least before he gets dragged into the supernatural things. I'm thinking of revising the early chapters to make him a bit more...

On another note, I want to get a lot better at dialogue because when I read light novels, the lines feel so "alive" for lack of better term. The flow feels so good and show personality. Whereas I feel half of my dialogue mostly exists to just move the plot forward and sound generic most of the...

I write more prose, so personal bias has to go with it. I just like describing how things look, how people look, their changing facial expressions, their reactions and actions, etc to make it easier to visualize things as if they were an anime, movie, etc. Kind of like a play-by-play which I...

I like harems because there's a higher chance of eventually finding a waifu character that I'll keep reading the novel for. I also enjoy seeing the protagonist deal with different personalities or how the girls' dynamic with each other develop. I like fantasy, both high and low, because I grew...

Private messages with some friends. Some Discord channels by the author if it exists. Few of my real life friends know I write, and part of those only read just because I make them beta read my stuff, so there's not much going on irl as far as webnovels from sites like this.

Didn't realize Arifureta had such a high word count. Then again, there are many sidestories per volume.
