    [Solved] Horizontal Lines are not visible

    Horizontal Lines inserted into the body text does not display in live preview or content after published. This issue to my knowledge has not existed before today. Seems like a lot of internet problems are going on right now, but I feel this might just be a broken feature? The impact of this is...

    For anyone wondering (Images not showing up)

    Not sure where this would go so I'll put it here. If anyone is reading my content and noticing an error with images not loading today, it is because the image hosting site is currently down and under DDOS attacks. There isn't anything I can do about this bug except wait for their services to...

    Dawn of a Sage latest chapters and release history...

    The first bit of Dawn of a Sage is now ready to begin. This is book 4 (a continuation) of the Leray Series, and the pacing of the adventure will gradually change as we go in further. Here's the general synopsis (with possible spoilers) for each segment.

    The Pressure Of Marriage.

    There are a lot of reasons why, but I think over the years of streams, Raging Golden Eagle has explained it the best. I don't have an exact reference to which videos he explains it in. Summary: Men often get bent over by the courts in divorces, more so than the women. Chalk it up to too many bad...

    What are peoples thoughts on authors allowing their readers to finish a story for them?

    An interesting thought experiment. I have so many side-characters with their own infinite stories and possibilities, and heck, entire new stories and characters being made in the Leray-magic system would be interesting for me to see. Naturally I'd want the world's rules to apply in any setting...

    Hiatus sadness

    It happens. Sometimes people are run over by the random chaos that is life... Hopefully it comes back at some point.

    How is adult life treating you?.

    I'm slowly being poisoned to death by medication that I need to function, and doctors don't want to give anything else due to bullshit red tape laws. I also have no money and no 'good' job due to the partial disability. Makes me really appreciate my teenage years.

    Is mating with angels monsterfucking? A debate.

    Depends on your definition of angel. For me, angels were once humans living in the physical world like us. By that definition, they are still of the same general source, so no, not monster-grinding.

    The fall of KDP [Rant]

    You are likely right about my issue being more with government than the services, but in summary, a lot of my frustration actually is with KDP's crummy software. It's not as important to the bigger picture, but it is something I can see getting lots of authors to rage quit from KDP, where print...

    The fall of KDP [Rant]

    Writing this now still feels a bit dated, but I've grown more annoyed with KDP and their services each and every year. I'm sure many have heard about the new scam market that is becoming Amazon's physical market place; already a bad look for them. Anyway, having the option to produce and update...

    Litrpg system justification?

    I was told that a LitRPG system does not have to be set in a literal video game to be classified as such, but if there are game mechanics inside of a realistic world, the source of it should be explained and justified in a manner which makes sense. If anyone thinks this suddenly makes the genre...

    Tell me about your first novel and your latest novel?

    Leray World was actually my first project. I hosted it elsewhere and am slowly migrating into this platform, because I like SH and RR much, much more than KDP and traditional Ebook sites. Though, exclusive to SH, I actually launched Overlap as the first project (on SH). I would consider its...

    Share Embarrassing Moments You Experienced Or Saw.

    There was a girl I crushed on in school once. She brought an old music cassette tape to school, the film was kind of everywhere, and I noped out of the room so fast. Was no cap afraid of cassette tape to the point of freaking out if it touched my skin. You ever find a roach crawling on your...

    What writing exercises do you guys practice?

    Yeah, I still have not finished that book, though I did get through twelve or so chapters. It's been sitting on ice cause it's not a bad read but I have time allocation issues this year. If you do pick up History of a young lady, best have your dictionary on speeddial. Self-pacing is important...

    Could ya'll share any tips on how to regain interest in a story that one loses interest in.

    Forgive me if I sound repetitive, but have you tried musical playlists as background while reading? If so, maybe change the general pace/tone of the BG music. I spent lots of time to make playlists for the stuff I read. It's not for everyone; I know that. Still an option though if non-lyrical...

    What writing exercises do you guys practice?

    Find some of the hardest/longest books to read (such as History of a Young Lady), study the diction and style, try to copy it for practice (yes, practice only), and throw some of these styles together to make your own, see what works. Poetry often has lots of interesting transition styles too...

    Rant: Why is Webnovel so popular?

    I'm glad I didn't join them for tea and cookies

    Trolley problem but worse.

    Anyone reminded of that one Futurama episode? Bender's Game? The one where Leela enters a derby against rednecks, and they introduce the Dixie Chicks all fused together in a horrible teleporter accident? Yeah, this post reminded me of that.

    How many chapters do you post per week?

    Depends on the story, the project size, project type, (and with some variance ~ chapter word count). I've got my Leray project going at about 2-3 chapters every Monday and Thursday, so 4-6 per week (I want this to be the set speed even if it feels fast). Backlog already established and under...
