It's 異世界. 異 - different, strange, wonderful... 世界 - the world. Isekai just means "another world". So anything where your character switches up worlds is isekai. The reason it's mostly our world to a fantasy one is simply for self-insert reasons. For the genre itself, the important thing is the...

Ah yeah. Who doesn't know the scrawny but muscular :D

Then don't. Resurrecting a character has the massive problem of destroying a lot of future stakes (unless you have a lot of (often even worse) rules) but it can also make the character a lot less appealing. One example would probably be Kakashi from Naruto. His resurrection gave him some kind...

You shouldn't forget, that the moment you sign such a contract, it becomes your job. So working 2-3 hours/day to write a 1k chapter isn't really that outlandish. A lot of "self-published genre authors" who see writing as their job will write more. I also wouldn't take their contract, but their...

Depending on the level of feedback you want (and the amount of money you want to spend), you could also look for "Developmental Editing". Those also differ between looking at story beats and reading with a lot of comments. But if you are more after a "general feeling" then multiple beta-readers...

If you look for professional stuff, you could always look for editors who also give low-level services. If you don't have any at hand, the easiest way would probably be fiverr or other freelance services...

Which is my point. It is a lot more likely we'll see that on a global scale with a "near-total destruction of humanity" compared to "flying cars driven by self-sustaining supercomputers".

2140 maybe. (based on your idea, that the world changes 2030) Same is also more or less true for everything else in this thread... a hot dream of "I have a cool idea" with somewhere between 50 and 200 years of missing innovations in between. To be harsh: it is a lot more likely that some stupid...

I'm the guy who writes the tools programmers use to make that magic stuff happen... So I'm kinda like the person who creates the magic system :D Also, I have a masters degree in physics... so most of the time people come and ask me "is it true that (stupid thought)?" or "Couldn't we do (simple...

Go to your dashboard and press "delete" on the right side of the novel.

Which is fine. I just gave my thoughts on it. If you have such a wide range, you generally have to write stuff that is at least in the upper third of the length to have any chance. Which would make this a 7k words/week event... that's a length a lot of authors - especially those with ongoing...

It sounds fun and I might have even entered if I had a little bit less stress right now. But so, just my thoughts as an outsider about the rules and the tournament itself: (1) The word count seems unbalanced as hell. We are talking five times between the minimum and maximum. Especially if this...

I want my fav author to just write what they enjoy creating. Nothing worse than someone writing by the numbers because they see the need to change to a different style/genre. Given that I mostly read long-running series, I have no problem reading "similar styles" over and over again, as long as...

The reader can't edit tags at all. But first/third-person-tags also don't exist. Though even if they did, the authors would need to set it themselves. So yeah, allowing the readers to add tags to stories isn't possible.

Are you getting any readers or feedback? Given my experiences with MTL, their reading experience must be horrible...

You can't really deconstruct the Isekai genre because "Isekai" is a setting and not a content genre. Isekai is just the transport to another world. Deconstructing it might (at most) work though the usual "was a dream"-copout. Or something like "he was crazy and did bad stuff in the real world...

Keep in mind, that paying for stuff also gives the consumer "the right to complain". If someone is the GM for free and fun, people will accept and overlook small problems. The moment they pay for it, they will demand that all the stuff works. "Skipping rules" can become a big problem the moment...

It's easy to get the plans to do something. You can find instructions for a million different things online. The "hard part" is to actualy get the needed parts in real life and go through with it. And that's also the difference between "research", "interest", and "being crazy".

I have written one... I think that might be the one.

To quote a - kinda - wise man: "carefully".
