    Philosophical question?

    With no other boundaries than "Speak the truth", the cursed person can say anything. Cause statistically, anything and everything thing can happen in an effectively infinite 13 dimension multiverse.

    Super powers.

    Bro, infrared is light. And your remote control uses it. Can you imagine how much an illusionist like Blaine or Copperfield would pay to have you be a secret hand? Also, no mosquito bites. Besides, we aren't talking about how telekinesis works, why the mud slinging at my pick. You do realize...

    Super powers.

    I hard disagree. Also infrared sensor pickup is a nerf to the ability. As infrared is also just light. An invisible man would be job hunted by every gov for investigation and/or espionage. Also, a solid anchor for ghost hunting shows.

    Super powers.

    I gotta go with the classic "invisibility". It's just op when not nerfed to have a counter. Speedrun dirt digging on the Rich and famous plz.

    Just a photo dump

    You know, your email is a better photo dump location. I say this as a person with some self send emails that date back 25 years.

    What do you favor most in attack?

    Context matters. Without it, I always choose speed. Cause what does anything else matter if you can chuck a rock at some fraction of the speed of light.

    Should An Evil Protagonist Save The World?

    It's a pretty common trope for western comic villains to help the heroes when they and/or the world are at risk of death. There's not many villains who want to destroy the place they live, so much as control it in some way. Be it politics, violence, or economically.

    Plot questions for everyone.

    1. In character driven, there's no outside force pushing the main characters to do something. It's about character interaction and growth. A lotta slice of life stories are like this. It fails if there is no character development, or if the readers just can't care about the characters. 2. Plot...

    What do you consider as harem?

    As an old anime fan, Harem is a wheel. One character is at the center(axle), and there's multiple other people (spokes) orbiting around them. In rom com the spokes are loose and chaotic(Love Hina), while in a power fantasy(Sword Art Online) the spokes and axle combine their powers to overcome...

    What do you think about average reading comprehension

    https://www.thenationalliteracyinstitute.com/2024-2025literacy-statistics 21% of adults in the US are illiterate in 2024. 54% of adults have a literacy below a 6th-grade level (20% are below 5th-grade level). It's gone down hill ever since the Federal Dept of Education was instituted...

    How an entirely different generation changes media writing

    Woot ma first post deletions by mod! So.. yeah, I disagree, but can't say why because censorship of things that requires talking about 'subjects' who invaded media but are apparently untouchable here. But I can tell you a story. Disney bought Marvel in 2009 because they wanted to expand their...

    New Writer looking for advice

    Don't chapter dump a pile of chapters then skip for a month or two. Space them out to the level that you finish a chapter at minimum.

    Writing I think I wrote myself into a corner

    You mean obsessive tism. Like so many Manhwa protags. So boring lol

    Writing I think I wrote myself into a corner

    The easiest is to have the MC get bored of the very dry reads of knowledge, and ends up wandering to the fiction section.

    Oh hey, free honey, and vandal security.

    Writing ? QUESTION FOR THE BRAVE

    I don't believe in the hypothetical existence of time travel. Rather I think the duo are like the asteroid in the Panspermia theory. Just instead of planet to planet life spreading, it's universe to universe life spreading. Their "existing selves from the past" are just their ancestor, and...

    PSA: Stop Asking if People Would be Interested in a Story

    You're missing the big problem, People aren't going to click your "Is this a good idea?" or "Story ideas" out in the SH novel releases. People are lookin to actually read somethin not appraise some idea. While in the forums people are looking for interaction on anything and everything, which...

    PSA: Stop Asking if People Would be Interested in a Story

    I disagree. Market research and bouncing ideas off of people is necessary to not get lost in your own sauce. Stephen King has his wife to bounce ideas off of. But what about single people, or people surrounded by others who hate reading? I think the forum is a solid way to get third party...

    What is the most conceptually terrifying/horrifying kind of magic?

    Mind/Body Control magic. Nothin quite like being the strongest and getting Mind/body controlled by the evilest person in the world. Then being forced to watch as your body does "all the bad things" to everyone you loved then use you like the Winter Soldier to off the vilain's enemies. Then...
