    I will draw your OC or character

    I mean, it's her true form. She's basically a blob that assumes the form of a girl. Yet there wouldn't be any parts to see, as she simply lacks them, and doesn't bother/isn't good enough to form details like nethers. In the story, she often assumes a full-body cloak with a mask (at first a...

    I will draw your OC or character

    For real?! Like, for free? Damn, I'd really love to see my OCs in an anime style. I'd like to see Shari, from my story Slime Girl. She started out as a red-haired tomboy (shorter hair ear till neck length) of 17 years, but then got transformed into a blue slime (I want the slime). She's rather...

    Its not LitRPG, how to call it.

    For a more classic western version of your concept, I recommend a look into Dungeon scholar on RoyalRoad. That one had a skill-based society, but no stats. It was pretty interesting how things interacted and might be very good reference (yet it's discontinued).

    What is the most unusual but grounded martial art you've created and\or used in a novel?

    Guess that doesn't count, but in my fantasy stories, there are beings with liquid bodies. They can send a wave from one point of their body to the other side, and accelerate it continuously till it reaches the contact point, which basically sends out a kinetic shock that sends most opponents...

    Describe your MC in one sentence

    An accidental cosmic being that is way over her head with her power.

    How do you explain "magic"?

    Personally, I find that the law of conservation of energy should somehow still exist. This means the fireball needs an energy source. Either by equal exchange from somewhere else, or through some inner power the caster had to stock up on first.

    Why a Story Needs a Primary Antagonist (and how to find them)

    My stories are basically pure chaos. The main theme is that the MCs get turned into creatures and need to deal with it. The plot follows. While situations naturally revolve around this most pressing point, I wouldn't exactly call it the focus of the happenings. They are the main influence, but...

    Why a Story Needs a Primary Antagonist (and how to find them)

    Hmm, my stories are going well, and this without an actual antagonist. Rather, it's usually a general situation of conflict. Particular, I'd mention here my story Formicea (as it's the only book I basically completed). While there is a war in the background, the enemies are at best just that...

    Requesting tips for cultivation system

    A cultivation story whose system I found very intriguing was a post-apocalypse, with zombies. Both zombies, magical beasts, and some humans could gain elemental powers that would allow them to use a certain kind of magic, sometimes with even extremely exotic effects and things that may benefit...

    Need help with this story idea!

    I feel like the premise could be a bit problematic. Does she actually have to kill her variants? Is that an important plot point that can't be changed? It makes her incredibly unlikeable as a character. If it were just to explore those worlds and encounter those variants, maybe gaining something...

    What’s some weird ‘magic’ you've read about, or imagined?

    I liked Vacant Throne, where magic was applied by handcards. You had to first create an immensely complicated pattern with special ink, which only a handful of people are capable of, because it fries your mind otherwise. Then your mind has to be able to access the meaning, or, you know it, it...

    Thoughts on someone leaving harsh reviews on your novel?

    As a general stance, if you intend to do it for the author, I'd rather recommend a comment below the chapter or a direct pin. You can give fair critique and issues you see that you'd like they'd take care of. You need to consider, given the number of reviews, that a negative one is going to...

    Sci-fi compared to Fantasy?

    I think just as in fantasy, an underlying understanding of your universe's foundation is required. Far more than a magical system in fantasy, you need to be able to explain what your scientific concepts base on. Be it teleporters, engines, weapons, all of this will be far more u to scrutiny than...

    Air vs. Water, Fire, and Earth – Air Wins for Me!

    Water, with absolute certainty. Airi may have some good points, but she doesn't hold a candle to Io. hat woman is simply devious. Universes would collapse if she were to will it, but she doesn't, and so we live on. Well, aside from the poor girls she chooses as her water angels.

    Random question chain.

    Hm, wouldn't switching heads be kinda related to her? But no. (I don't even know when she'd done it.)

    Random question chain.

    In my novel "Slime Girl". What is Shari's (1st protagonist) most notorious trait/skill that isn't related to her body. Tip: I don't mean knowledge or dexterity, but something inherent.

    Webtoon series are on the same level as fanfics.

    Let's be honest, in truth, we all want that rather the Xth otome-something with the same plot we can predict down to the color of the dress in the fourth banquet event, we want them to animate our stuff! At least I would! (My Eldritch school setting might do well, but rather I'd see my Slime...

    Fanfiction.net and fictionpress has a commission scam problem

    You know, I'm not quite sure. I think my covers in itself are fine and somewhat established by now. I wouldn't quite know how I'd integrate further pictures in the already existing chapters. Also, I treat my writing mostly as a hobby, and would like to keep business stuff out of it. (More or...

    Fanfiction.net and fictionpress has a commission scam problem

    I got called out on RR by someone trying to sell me art pictures. In hindsight, I might've been too polite, the way I discussed in a lengthy way how sorry I am that I currently can't take any pictures in my stories. Turns out, they just wanted to sell me stuff from their catalog.

    Your Protagonist in Another Story

    I actually would love to see that, and it would be even lore-accurate. You see, my protagonist, Iori Nomia, is a pretty average 14-year-old girl who through circumstances, involuntarily got herself transformed into an Eldritch goddess. She can grow all kinds of fleshcrafts and even has her own...
