    Which element do you like the most in the story?

    Character interaction for sure. Not that a good story doesn't contain all those things (well, not all, depending on the story). Plot is important, but you can already guess what the plot is going to be in most stories. And how it will end. Take Harry Potter. You get to find out about Voldemort...

    Here are the (attempted) songs I am making ;p

    I personally hate the synth, but I'll try to overlook it. With that said, it's obvious that you're talented and have a promising piece going on. What I'd like to see improved: perhaps obvious, but the notes are quite sharp. Although, I suspect that is because it's a draft, and therefore a...

    Crafting A Contained Story

    Pretty much this. So how to chose an ending? An ending is essentially the characters (regardless if its the whole story or one of the arcs) either reaching their goals, or failing to do so. This includes the villans in a lot of hero-stories, where the hero normally puts in the final nail that...

    How to address different skin tones when writting

    Sorry, I'm a bit confused. I suggested to avoid that kind of general descriptions completely (skin colour being one of them). Personally, I feel satisfied with fewer details about characters' appearances. Too many details can make the author seem obsessed and superficial. Crude example of what...

    How to address different skin tones when writting

    You have two options: 1. Don't care about people's opinions and write what you want. Your story will never be able to please everyone, anyway. 2. Avoid writing character appearances in ways that relates to things such as skin colour. Instead, empthasize the difference between nationalities by...

    Why the rules of logic are necessary in a fantasy world.

    Very good video! Any story needs consistency - regardless if it's fantasy or not. Using the argument that you don't need logic because it's fantasy is simply childish. Because we, as readers, accept the existance of magic and the like in a story. However; Stories are like games, where the...

    Riddle Me This!

    The Earth/Gravity, Reality, Despair, Fear, Doubt? Or perhaps, a lacking sense of spacial orientation?

    If your novel was selected to become an anime, what song would you use as an opening/ending?

    My options would be from the songs I listen to while writing; Intro/Main Theme: Lola Montez - Volbeat Outro: One Of Us (feat Julie Elven) - Ivan Torrent Interlude between scenes: How To Make A Good Regiment

    Learning How To Write

    The reason people will avoid recommending ideas for you to write, is that as a writer you need to imagine what's happening in the story. Which is easier if the ideas are your own. If you're like me, then you have more ideas than you'll probably be able to write. Writing is something that, in...

    Help, I can't get up! (Help in making the fight scene)

    I don't know if this is meant to only be a place holder or not as you say you won't elaborate due to spoilers. But in the event that you're not, this is where the problem is, in my opinion. 'He was in pain.' is a classic breaking of the show, don't tell rule. Of course, we always break the rule...

    The Chicken or the Egg, Which Came First?

    If the question is refering to just eggs in general, then he answer is the egg. Explanation being that a lot of different species have laid eggs over the course of history, long before the species we now call chickens existed. But that might be a boring explanation, since it's called 'the...

    How would a classical anime NEET come to know about corona?

    It depends on what the NEET's habits would be. If they go on forums or browse memes, eventually it will pop up in some discussion. Like this one. If they play an online-based game, there's going to be other players there. Where the subject will likely show up in a discussion or as part of a...

    Filtering question

    There is. After the genre filters comes the two options to include or exclude tags. Since there's so many, once you click it a scroll-down list appears. Remember to change the 'or' to 'and'. Edit: This is if you use the series finder, in case you weren't aware of it.

    What do you do when you get like a brain fatigue while writing a chapter? How do you go back in the 'zone'?

    I've found that sleeping is exceptionally good. After a good nap, the brain is refreshed and ready to tackle even the boring parts of the chapters I'm writing. And while writing, I listen to music. More specifically, I've designated a few songs for each of my characters, that help me get back...

    Removed from Latest Updates

    Alright, that is indeed strange. Never heard of a chapter disappearing from the list, and I don't think it should. Maybe it's something new. I'd write a thread in the bug section if I were you.

    Removed from Latest Updates

    If you're refering to your update not showing up instantly, then yes. It happens a lot. In fact, by design, most likely. It even says so somewhere when you're in the process of adding a new series that approval of a new series takes up to 24h, thereafter every new chapter becomes available...

    How long the LitRPG trend will go on?

    As has been said, isekai is old and will likely remain for some time (or forever). So it will be here to stay - the question is what kind of plot isekais will have in the future (when they move away from the villaness/LitRPG plots that are the current trend). As for LitRPG, it will likely also...
