    Writing Prompt Destruction Saturday Approaches, So I Must Bring Myself to Face My Inevitable Demise, but Wait, I Suddenly Got Reincarnated?!(The full title below.)

    I thought it was referring to the traditional Christian concept that there would be 6,000 years, then the beginning of the 7,000th would be a time of increased tribulation, leading up to the apocalypse.

    Regarding Warnings: Gore

    I have indeed finished ROW. I'd argue though that the most gory scene in the Cosmere is in Well of Ascension.

    Trying to create a distinct magic system (if ever this is even a thing)

    Ah, my favorite topic. Before I make redundant explanations, I must ask, are you familiar with Sanderson's laws of magic?

    Regarding Warnings: Gore

    This is all an interesting conversation - Especially when one applies it to fantasy specific violence. In The Stormlight Archive there are swords that cause victim's eyes to burn out upon death, or cause limbs to die if severed, though they remain attached. Is this gory, even if there's no...

    Username and Avatar

    One: I like my icon Two: Wasatch is a Shoshone word of unknown etymology, but a lot of proposed meanings of it run along the lines of "mountains" or "high mountains."

    The curious and forbidden topic of hand-holding

    I have absolutely no idea what any of this is about. I'm just a young adult that's scared of crossing the bridge of holding a girl's hand.

    AUTHORity!

    I write for a number of reasons, and desire to write in the future for a few more. I enjoy writing because I desire a creative outlet. It is a skill I feel adept at, but in other avenues, certain factors get in the way of my creation. I like to see a world spring to life, and I want to populate...

    Increase the character limit for writing on wall!

    Yeah, this is something that has annoyed me - I once had to spend a few minutes after writing a status update trying to whittle it down because it was too big. I had to keep trying over and over, and I've never had that issue on Wattpad.

    How much money do amateur authors really make when they put their webnovels on Amazon?

    I concur with most of what is being said here - in my opinion, the only way to make it as a full time author, unless you're writing in a niche genre, is to go traditional publishing. Even if you don't care about getting your story in print, the big thing that a publisher does for you is helps...

    How about splitting webpage for adult stories?

    Personally, I've recommended the site to some people, and they've been a bit dissuaded by the adult content on the front page.

    How to keep a harem novel family-friendly... like, no cursing, suggestive themes, etc. AT ALL?

    If I was writing a story attempting to explore more realistic polygamous relationships, I would not include the harem tag - just as I wouldn't call something smut if the sexual content was abusive.

    How to keep a harem novel family-friendly... like, no cursing, suggestive themes, etc. AT ALL?

    My opinion on this is very complex for an important reason - I am descended from Latter-day Saints in early Utah who practiced polygamy. While this is often depicted by popular culture as nothing but the highest of evils, and often referred to as a harem, from my study of historical sources and...

    My friend prefers using mobile as they are not around a PC as often as they have their phone. But I will forward this info to him - his internet is very slow apparently.

    Well... I wrote a fantasy novel. Only on fantasy trending though. I intend for that to change however...

    Helping out a friend

    I have a friend @Survey on here that wants to write on here more, and be more active, but he has had difficulties. For one, he says that when he gets on the site, he tries to post comments, and they don't work. He has verified his email, so it isn't that. He's trying to access the site on his...
