    Average time to finish a chapter.

    I write about 1500-2000 words per hour when I am inspired. If I can't find a reason to like what I am writing it gets shit canned and then I start all over from word one.

    There are typically two kinds of men who would have a harem in these types of stories. One is the kind of man who sees women as personal possessions.

    Took me long hours of contemplation before realizing this!

    Sometimes a story just isn't worth finishing. You start it with an inspiration and then come to a point where you aren't happy with how it is going to develop. You can either write an ending or shelve it until you find that intangible something, that tiny burst of inspiration to take in a...

    Calculating Strength

    I have seen a few stories where the author uses animals to gage strength for example; Tier 1 strength is 1 bull. Tier 2 strength is 2 bulls. Tier 3 strength is 5 bulls. Tier 4 Strength is 10 bulls. I have also seen stories where they use weight to gage strength for example; Tier 1 strength...

    Writing Isekai MC not reacting to slavery

    I feel like the majority of the protagonists in Isekai are intentionally written to be Machiavellian. They end up sent to a new world never pining for the connections they left behind, family, friends, acquaintances with maybe the occasional thought about a pretty girl or a deceased grandparent...

    How you guys earn from writing Novel?

    I make tons of money selling artwork but I lose money writing (when you factor the time I spend, electricity, computer, etc.). I think you'll find that most writers aren't in it for money, we just really want to tell stories that someone will enjoy.

    Writing When Did Stats Become "Not Enough" ? (LItRPG-centered)

    One of the challenges of creating a story that follows a predictable pattern where each new arc is essentially going to have to be a repeat of the previous arc with something extra is adding a new element that can break through the imaginary box you have created for your characters.

    I'm having trouble building the character of the MC, can anyone help?

    When I make a character I like to answer a few questions about them; Why do they struggle? Revenge, curiosity, to become the best, etc. What are their moral values? Murder, rape, theft, violence, etc. Who do they care about? Themselves, a family member, a random beauty, a friend, etc. How do...

    How would you rate Earth in terms of Worldbuilding?

    Issue with ratings.

    It still makes me shake my head that people go through the effort to make extra accounts just to drop the ratings of another author's work out of jealousy. It's not like any of us are making our living off these stories. The ratings just take something that should be fun and positive and make it...
