    Is there any story like In Another World With My Smartphone but with a more confident and badass mc?

    So, put it simply: I wanna read something light and fun that doesn’t have too thick of a plot and angsts. Something like ‘In Another World With My Smartphone’ but with a more confident and badass mc—most preferably an mc who’s not scared of girls, please. Would be even better if he’s flirtatious...

    What’s the difference between web novel and conventional novel?

    I have my take on it, but I still wanna hear your opinion. For me, the most obvious difference seems to be the rule—“show, don’t tell.” Most web novels—either they’re Japanese, Chinese, or Korean—seem to break this rule a lot. Conventional novels—if not talking about the quality of prose...

    Stupid question; do you use dictionary when reading a novel and find a word you don’t understand?

    English is not my first language, but at least I think I’m fluent in the language to some extent (giving that I can carry on with any kind of conversations and I can tell a story, no problem). Thing is, when I read a novel from professional writer—the difficult book with a lot of technical...

    Here’s a little criterias: - No Japanese beta mc. - The mc has to be badass, or at least the other characters in the story think so. - No shitty drama. - He’s loved and respected by everyone (well, maybe not his enemy). - Doesn’t hide his power. Any suggestion?

    What do you think about fluff?

    When I say fluff, I mean the moment in the story where there isn’t much plot progression. Fluffy moment, as I like to call it, is when the characters display affections to one another to the point of guaranteeing you to be diagnosed with diabetes. Or to put it more simply, it’s the comforting...

    Who is the best storyteller in the world?

    Remember the keyword; Storyteller, not the writer. If we go by the record, then it probably would have been Roal Dahl. He’s famous for his children book. My favorite is, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, which of course was made into a movie. I remember watching it since I was a kid, and...

    Have you ever read a story with no internal-monologue?

    As we all know, internal-monologue can help bring characters to life. It makes readers understand why some characters do what they do, what their motivations are, and empathize with them. But, when we watch a movie, we don’t get to know the character’s thoughts. We can only guess their thoughts...

    Which POVs do you like the most? Why?

    I love reading in 1st person POV. It‘s much simpler and much faster. But, I find it easier to write in 3rd person POV. I think the reason for that is, I watch a lot of movies and animes, so when I visualize the scene in my head, I usually visualize it in the camera angles. Right now, I’m...

    To write a good story, you need both. Characters are what the readers care and talk about the most. And plot is what keep the readers’ interest. But, each writers tend to focus more on one than the other. Such is the birth of plot-driven and character-driven story. So, what about you? Which...

    What do you think about minimalistic style of writing?

    I don’t like long-winded descriptions, especially with the setting. Why? Because it’s unnecessary and distracting. When I read the first sentence of the descriptions, image of the scene starts to form in my head. So when the second sentence comes to provide more details, I just feel that it’s...
