    Harems are easy to write, authors are just lazy

    I'll say it: Harems are the easiest thing to write, the authors who write them are just lazy. I mean COME ON! Free characters! With no effort to get them in the harem! And you're telling me you can't just add ONE conflict they have? I'm telling you; harems are literally a free pass of...

    Thoughts on the false religion I created (In my story)

    Well, there is a theme. It's more so not about the leaders, but more so the religion itself and how, in truth, humanity will never understand their universe as the true gods are amoral to their situation and how in the end, humanity has used religion for cope and control. So, there is...

    Thoughts on the false religion I created (In my story)

    Well, I'm not really trying to say religious leaders are bad. At least I hope people don't get that idea. I just feel a cult is perfect for the setting I've set up

    Thoughts on the false religion I created (In my story)

    Well, are they really gullible if supernatural things do happen, just be done by the leader who causes these events using his supernatural powers to help them and frame it as the God doing it, all for the sake of his own power. (He's not a good person, of course) Most generic ones just have...

    Damn bot notifications

    You ever just feel disappointed when you see that you have a message, thinking it may be a comment of someone who likes what you wrote, but when you open it, it's just a bot. Shiz's depressing

    Bottlenecks of Mystery Novels

    Well, regardless of if it's hard for me, experience is key, so I'm prepared to mess up and this will be good practice for me since I've been getting better at slowing down recently when writing, able to make slow scenes not only about action and more about characters

    Power System Centered around Lovecraftian Gods

    Indeed, it was inspired by Lord of the Mysteries, but the basis was a completely different power system I scrapped before I even knew LOTM even existed. I just like mystery and used some aspects from its power system as well as a few others I have made in the past. Hell, even the setting is...

    MC Villain who is the Übermensch

    He's certainly inspired as I have been reading reverend insanity for about 3 months now, but I didn't copy him, merely took some things I thought were interesting as I was trying to make a villain MC myself but needed some ideas on how to do so properly. Differences - did not start righteous...
