    Full Novel (400 Pages) Review Swap

    I posted this same thread on Royal Road, but I want to make the offer open to Scribble Hub authors as well: Hey! My second web novel, Hands Held in the Snow, is almost complete, with a little over a month to go before it is finally finished. To that end, I want to do some review swaps for it...

    LitRPGs and trending! Attention required!

    LitRPGs will fade in popularity in like 2-3 years so I don't think it's a big deal at the moment.

    Does putting the LitRPG tag make your story more attractive?

    Hmmmmmm this implies I should edit Hands Held in the Snow to add in stat tables

    Dragon Ball Z is the Best Anime Ever Made and you cant name a single anime better than it

    I rewatched the series for the first time since childhood last year and I really gotta say the Buu Saga is ass. It's such garbage where there are no stakes whastoever. Which is usually OK in DBZ because at least the silliness can win, but Toriyama committed an even worse sin and sidelined Gohan...

    Dragon Ball Z is the Best Anime Ever Made and you cant name a single anime better than it

    Dragon Ball is a strange, strange case. All shounen anime are bad as a whole since they're just serials for children made to sell merch, but Dragon Ball really has something different to it. The world is a bizarre cartoon, the characters are all idiots, but the stakes keep rising and getting...

    how to grasp pacing

    I recommend, as always, using movies as research. Movies are self-contained stories that are almost never more than ~160 minutes, so they are forced to tell a complete story in a short amount of time and utilize the three-act structure very well. Some movies are forced to compress quite...

    The Yuri Writing Help Room (18+)

    Hmm the question is more directed in a general sense, so maybe the baseline is like maybe two adults who have steady jobs and not that much free time these days for hobbies or big interests.

    What kind of protagonist would you prefer and why?

    I like protagonists who are hard headed and obstinate, but incredibly earnest and enthusiastic. If they were a side character they'd be flanderized into being annoying, but as the protagonist they are a lot more interesting, especially when they are forced to grow up and become more mature...

    What would you consider to be the epitome of the Japanese reincarnation/transmigration MC?

    The epitome of the Japanese isekai MC is the turbonerd. There is a lot of cultural nuance behind turbonerds across cultures, but the American equivalent is a meninist Redditor who spends all day complaining about TLOU2 and about all of the shallow jerks in his hometown (he still lives in his...

    Recommendations Yuri Selfcest and other stuff.

    I have a yuri supernatural fluff story in the works, but for now I can recommend these stories: Kindred Spirits on the Roof (ghosts) Medusa and the Blind Woman (but it's a medusa so maybe not what you want) My Dragon Girlfriend (many supernatural monsters included, not just a dragon) Serre...

    What do you prefer to read-

    I posted this on Royal Road forums too: I've been listening to the Lord of the Rings audiobook the last few weeks (almost sixty hours between the three parts) and I can now firmly say that I would pick A in a heartbeat. The story of Lord of the Rings is so silly and plain and filled with long...

    How Do You Balance Several Stories At Once?

    I used to think this for the ten years I exclusively used Google Docs, but after I started using Scrivener and got a handle on it I can say with good confidence that it has improved my writing. Sure, everything it does is something I could have set up myself in a series of word documents and...
