    So is she literally stupid, as in, not very intelligent, super slow on the uptake etc?

    Writing Writing A Stupid MC

    Is it a stupid or an ignorant character? If it's true stupid, then it's easier if they're quite adorable and endearing despite being a bit dumb. Ignorant characters are more interesting for me, especially when it comes to how they deal with their ignorance (do they want to keep it and...

    RoyalRoad vs Scribble Hub

    I write BL, and my interests are pretty much either very cute and fluffy, or pretty gory. I didn't want to write a darker story at first because I was worried it might not be accepted but.... Well, that exact story is number one on BL and my readers are happily screaming in the comments whenever...

    Why do Most Readers Not Comment?

    Laziness or openly having to show your opinion. I've had readers write me direct messages before because they didn't want to openly comment and know that I, as a reader, am very nervous about openly commenting. Also, I imagine a lot of readers have no account and don't feel like making one

    When are stories visible?

    Hey! Does anyone know at what point your story becomes visible? If it doesn't have a chapter yet, does it show up already? (I didn't want to create a new one just to find out) Reason is, I would like to prepare one - with chapters and glossary and everything, but I don't know when I'll feel like...

    About reincarnation novels

    Character consistency. I hate it when talented people reincarnate and suddenly they're like newborn idiots, or the other way around. In most cases there is no explanation why the characters don't act according to their life before reincarnation

    Why isn't my Cover art uploading?

    It might take a while for a cover to get accepted :)

    How would you rate Earth in terms of Worldbuilding?

    I'm not sure if all the missing info in its history is plotholes or hidden worldbuilding that's not revealed yet. Either way, it allows for some pretty interesting theories (and some are complete nonsense)

    Stuck In Writing

    Skip forward and write a scene you really want to write. Not as a perfectly planned scene, but a rough one that you can easily adjust once you get to the part. It does help me keep my motivation to reach those scenes I look forward to the most

    Percentage of depression within writers

    Depends. Are we talking actual medical depression? Then, no, I don't know many despite knowing a lot of writers and artists. If we're talking about people going through bad phases in which they are "depressed" due to their stories, then everyone. But that's normal :blob_sir:

    Life is hard

    That's wrong. We can't understand the pain of other people fully. We are confined to our own heads, so it's natural that compared to the vast pain that exists in the world, we still prioritize our own and that of our most precious people. The hardships you go through will always be one of the...

    GoogleDocs writers - how to organise story chapters?

    I have google docs up to a maximum of 150 pages (usually ~100) and just write as I please. Then, when I know I'll upload it soon, I reread the mini-arcs, correct mistakes as I see them and place myself numbered chapter markers after certain word counts. When it's time to upload the chapter, I...

    Writing How to make dialogues sound natural?

    Are you writing in a more light-hearted way like light novels or in a more serious way like the books you get in stores? If you are using more of the webnovel/light novel style, then it's not that hard. In this case, you can actually write as people talk. People interrupt, pause, stumble over...
