    Bugs On the iPad using Safari, typing can be buggy.

    It might also be the case for the iPhone, but I don’t own one. When ever I autocomplete a word, backspace the added space, and put punctuation, the punctuation mark replaces the last letter. S, sentences often go like thi. If I don’t go back and fix it.

    Why so much face slapping? Why so many pointless conflicts? … a bit of a rant.

    I have recently gotten back into reading Chinese & Korean web novels. But, I am hesitant to continue because of the face slap. Every work I have started the past couple of weeks has had this to some extent. They start off good, but slowly begin to degenerate in to the Magic Era curse. It was in...

    What is the most disappointing, not bad, ending to a series you have finished?

    Currently mine is this: https://www.mtlnovel.com/start-as-a-lord-in-a-viscount/ It was a fairly good series from start to everything but the end. The MC had discovered a mystery about how gods were the hidden rulers of the planes, and that they are resting in the astral plane. He then takes...

    Dipping my feet into the FREE FEEDBACK pool.

    I will do my best to go through the first 1-3 chapters of your work. I will not give feedback on smut, it is just not my cup of tea nor my area of amateur expertise. I will also not review anything that glorifies the exploitation of children or people more generally, as in slavery, blackmail...

    Would you read a story about a magic worlds analog of the Russian Civil war, but from the Makhnovshchina perspective?

    This would be the prequel to a series, the magic system is less DnD and more Call of Cthulhu meets Nen. An example is binding your self, either physically or spiritually, with an object to take on some of its characteristics. Like binding with a blade to get its flexibility and sharpness, but...

    Why are there very few comedy novels that are episodic and character driven, like Saiki K., School Rumble, Gintama, etc.

    I was rewatching Saiki Kusuo no Psi-nan for the 6th time, because I couldn’t really find a novel focused almost primarily on comedy here, and when there are they seem to focus more on thing the plot than characters and are less episodic. Which is pretty sad to me, because episodic character...

    What do you think about when doing mindless work?

    Typically I either plan out a couple of scenes or ideas, contemplate the viability of a syndiclist society or politics more generally, and/or sing/hum a song stuck in my head.
