    Cannot Create Signature?

    @LadyNefalum If your blank image is supposed to be an image, you have it set to your user url instead of a valid image. Also, Don't forget to note there are height-size limitations to signatures. I learned this the hard way. Forum Rules: "Picture in signature should not be bigger than 200 px in...

    Is writing a 'science' or 'art'

    Both. It is an experiment (science) but also an expression of what we choose (art)

    AI opinion

    A sad truth. I personally don't require covers to be interested in something. I literally jump into a median-chapter and look at the diction and content for a while. Make up my mind based on that.

    AI opinion

    I know it's a hot take, but people are generally all in or all out. If I see an author who used AI for a cover, I feel kind of meh. If I see they used AI to write even a quarter of their book, I'm blacklisting their work from reading. Do I feel bad saying that? No. No I don't. I want to read...

    Oh, you must not know me very well then ?

    The colour of our god!

    This reminds of of Fruits Basket for some reason.

    Just something to add to reading list

    I'm kind of in the mood for something with a more hardcore magical system. Particularly, when people use magic/spells, it messes with their minds, gradually encouraging some kind of mental insanity as a price. Something along this concept. I feel like it exists already so let me know if you find...

    Why cant people see my novel i posted

    Fr. I've lost count how many times I see a new thread titled the same. SHF might as well make a big flashing banner on the home page about this one rule. TBH I want this because I'm too curious to see how many still ignore it afterwards.

    If you make a novel to please everyone, you are the Nickleback/Imagine Dragons of novel writing.

    Sounds like you just wanted to fire a shot at Nickleback... No complaints. I didn't like their music (lyrics) much.

    [Solved] Need help on IRL name usage

    @Dieter @CharlesEBrown @Justhetip... @Sagefox Thanks for the replies. Looks like the best option is the use of Initials, since it isn't provable on legal paper while obvious enough for audience to follow along. It's the option in between that I didn't think of (and should have). Yes, it is...

    [Solved] Need help on IRL name usage

    I recently made a thread about starting a non-fiction project. Basically, a majority of the content will begin with an initial report (one made in real life), and as such, it will often involve full names of certain individuals, especially if some are more popular. Initially, I had thought to...

    Smut writers, how do you do it?

    I think one element is to just not think too hard about what you are putting down. At least half of it will probably be cringe, but that is often an entertainment perk for the rest of us. I am quite bad at writing smut. Could be that the immersion is hard to maintain when the blood calls...

    They banned NSFW everything in Shimoneta and look what happened.

    What is the game you have played the most?

    They all equal out in the end. Lately I've been getting hooked on Whiteout Survival.

    How to block a user who has disabled their profile?

    Coming from Royal Road it is not a shock. Just goes to reinforce my previous argument that people wanted to kill me over ~ the 5-star rating metric standing on its own is meaningless. If it is backed up by valid reviews that state the reason for the scores, then it becomes important detail to...

    How to block a user who has disabled their profile?

    I see... Reminds me of a user who was adamant in claiming the review system was totally perfect even when I brought this concept up. People are strange

    How to block a user who has disabled their profile?

    I'm confused. I thought we could block even private profiles, yet they can still review bomb even if we do???

    How to block a user who has disabled their profile?

    By that, do you mean your readers/metrics fell off due to a couple of anonymous/troll ratings?

    Non-Fiction Genre?

    I'm not sure either, about SubStack anyway, but it is worth a shot to look into it. I think I am at least going to try it here on SH as well

    How to block a user who has disabled their profile?

    I agree. I thought blocked users would be unable to review bomb but I guess I'm wrong to assume this. All we can do is call them out ~ but it should be improved so it can't happen as often.
