    Super powers.

    In terms of conveniency, I'd likely take telekinesis. Would be the most convenient in daily life and one wouldn't have to out oneself using them. The whole psion spectrum if that counts as a single power. Yet in terms of powers without bounds, I'd like to become a water elemental. A body that...

    Artfight 2025

    Okay, why is the sworswoman blushing?! What happened? Does it anything have to do with the hand behind her back?

    Human vs Nonhuman MCs?

    Non-human that was a human and actually still has a human self. Not the kind who just deliberately becomes monstrous.

    The deliberate overuse of "Yandere" tag needs to stop.

    Damnit, I could've used it because of a vague semblance! As well as Girl's Love!

    Chosen One or The Power Runs in the Family?

    I kinda dislike both. I prefer true chance. The character isn't really a normal person if they have the super advantage from the start. Nothing seems like their own. A factor of randomness makes it at least a story. The thing is, the chance event that grants them power is what gets the story...

    New here...

    If you already published it could be difficult. The initial release helps most with garnering readers. Two rules for that: 1. Have something that draws interest. That means in itself two things. One obviously being that your story should be something that makes a reader intrigued. Either you...

    What are your most unhinged writing, reading, & publishing tricks?

    I wait till midday, somewhere from 12:00 - 16:00, and wait exactly six minutes. The idea is that most releases happen at the full hour. So if I wait till past that my chapter will stay longer on the front page. Yet waiting five minutes is going what everyone with the same idea as me would take...

    What's your favourite type of MC?

    A real normal person. Yeah, that sounds generic and like it could be applied to most MCs, but actually, I barely ever see it done well, and then it's often a huge dislike for me if it suddenly turns away from this. For example, if they are isekaid, they should rightfully freak out. They...

    Fantasy?

    My story is none of these, and does quite well. Yet I#m not sure about the "regular". Need to agree that isekai that absolutely doesn't contribute is rather a detriment than a positive factor of the story. Especially, if they have to dumb down the protagonist, so it simply doesn't matter. Making...

    What’s fun when ‘Reincarnated as a Monster’?

    Personally, I don't see the point of a monster MC who reincarnated or transformed, who acts just like any other monster. That's just more of the same. There's no real surprise or interesting factor to them. Worse, it also feels unnatural or like a poor characterization if their actions are just...

    Which novel/s is/are your hate read?

    1. Azarinth Healer. Towards chapter 200, I didn't know why I even ever started and cut it. The most upsetting where the characters. Especially bad was that one "betrayal by her friend that happened for no actual reason. Yet, a total trainwreck is the MC. The MC is a genocidal maniac. Culling...

    What are your some of the most hated tropes?

    Actually, I prefer female protagonists, and am usually disappointed if I get a man in disguise. Especially, if they take me for an idiot by selling the plot.

    What are your some of the most hated tropes?

    The Isekai protagonist is a psychopath who has no qualms about killing a person. Protagonist doesn't behave like a human being. Story shows clear political agenda. Gender Bender that exists solely for the tag, but otherwise doesn't matter. Gender Bender without body dysphoria, where MC directly...

    Editing Rewriting An Older Story, Need Tips

    Maybe instead of Superhero go just superhuman? People gain powers, but most aren't gunghoo about doing social service. Society has to make an effort to have a system that can put them to use, according to their powers. And then a formally strong status comes that doesn't actually have the level...

    Poverty theme stories

    Alchemitization on RR was the best I have ever read in this regard. Sadly discontinued (why are authors doing that to us?!!).

    Tell us About Your Story Lore

    Some kind of disposition in this fantasy world leads to young girls getting transformed into powerful monsters at every corner.

    Made two accounts probably

    If you click on your profile in the upper right, there is a partion "Signature". Click on it, and there you can attach links just like below mine.

    Ashes and Thunder

    The Webtoon Cydonia Shattering had "Sand and Cinder". That was quite fun.

    Writing I think I wrote myself into a corner

    Just by knowing what is written in a book, would he be actually able to apply it? Just because he knows the content, he doesn't have to be intelligent enough to make heads of anything complicated. I could as well read a book about nuclear thermodynamics, and wouldn't be able to build a nuke...

    I will draw your OC or character

    No pressure. If you actually get to it, I'll be happy, but I don't put you on the spot to deliver. Would be just a nice little extra to brighten my day.
