    Book about why the soviet education system is better than the US. (forgotten title)

    Wrong website to be searching for this book my guy. IDK if questions about political propaganda books is even allowed on this website. Also, is Google or another search engine not available to you?

    Something is wrong with me (I can't write as much as I used to)

    Age. Responsibilities. Realizing that writing for fun is a bit of a wasted effort and time. Sounds like it has been five+ and that is the time when your age will catch up to you or life will if you started writing in the mid to late teens.

    Your Opinion on Western/Westernized Cultivation Novels

    They don’t work. The ones written in asian countries are okey but translators and political bias tend to make them mediocre or borderline intolerable. From a thematic standpoint they are also not good. Using east asian myth (acupuncture, yin yang, qi, five elements, kung fu, etc…) that has been...

    Self insert fanfics vs wish fulfillment fanfics

    So if you were to one day learn that you have Scarlett Johansson as your co-worker would you fuck her in the restroom that same day? That is the difference between wish fulfillment and self insert. Doing things that you think you would do or doing things you may fantasize about that would never...

    How to decide what gore is unnecessary gore?

    It really depends on what you are writing. A horror story has a high bar for what is considered excessive but a mystery or shounen novel would have a much lower bar. A good rule of thumb is wether or not it adds anything to the scene.

    PB&J Ratio

    Thin layer of peanut butter on one side, thin layer of jelly on the other. Too much peanut butter makes your mouth gummy, too much jelly or jam makes it sickeningly sweet (and not in the good way).

    How do the members of the Meta Liberation Army feel about quirkless people?

    Underclass is not a term to use in that context and it doesn’t really fit for describing black americans either. The comparison between the two doesn’t make very much sense either because quirkless people would be born from any random person.

    How do the members of the Meta Liberation Army feel about quirkless people?

    Definitely not like black people in the states. Your view on how black Americans are treated seems quite outdated.

    How do the members of the Meta Liberation Army feel about quirkless people?

    I’m not into MHA that much (I’ll read some fics of it tho) but from my understanding the MHLA’s core tenets are: the more powerful your meta ability the more societal and political freedoms you have. Those with powerful quirks would likely have laws be not enforced as often where as someone...

    Differences of Zombie Disease in Sci-Fi fantasy vs. Magic fantasy??

    Sci-Fi Fantasy is sort of redundant, Science-Fiction Fantasy would only apply to things like “Mana Engines used to power carriages” but that would more be labeled Modern Fantasy or Steampunk depending on which era the story takes place. Yes, one of them uses viruses or fungi or parasites and...

    Can i translate chinese, Japanese or korean novel and upload here? If i can, then what should i pay attention?

    Try and get into contact with whomever owns the rights. Typically a novel will have a company or “group” that helped publish it and the author (from many chinese/korean novels I have seen). Either way I wouldn’t recommend doing it on this website because it is for English speaking/fluent writers...

    Recommendations Misunderstood Tsundere

    I am trying to recall this one manga where the Female Lead is a middle school “gangster” and the Male Lead was a lackey(?) of his previous school’s “gang”. It ends up with the FL being madly in love but extremely shy and the ML sees her as making him a servant and threatening to remove limbs...

    Are Gender Bender, Harem, Romance, GL and BL Tags considered sexual in nature? [Poll]

    Not inherently, but it is unfortunate that they are often of that nature. My personal issue with such tags is that they are often overplayed or are the entire backing of the story. “Gender Bender” and “Romance” being the main focus point is understandable considering how they would play a large...

    Don’t bother, I found what it was.

    So there was this one fan-fic about DC where the MC gets a system and can choose either Villain or Hero. Plot twist!!! He chooses neither and decides to become a cop. That is as much as I can remember and I can’t find it. Does anyone know the name of it?

    A possibly illegal thread.

    If it is about using that as a bases for a religion in a novel then it should be no problem. The only problem is if you take the concept and don’t translate it into the story well.

    Writing Prompt Start story with "This Edible Ain't Shit"

    This edible ain’t shit. Eight hours later I somehow ended up at a bed and breakfast in Norway with 17 naked people on the floor, an empty briefcase chained to my arm, and a tattoo on my dickhead. Waking up to a loud roar, I see what appears to be 2 tigers painted with a dozen colours. One tiger...

    How do you write a believable human protagonist?

    Most of them are believable in the right context, it is the situations that readers tend to criticize. Keep the personality of the character, how their day/week/month was going, and the connection they have to the situation in mind when writing their reactions. The reason why any kind of...

    Most definitely. You have to do about 5 things to get a good audience to make a side hustle (a way to make pocket change). 1. You have to write in a coherent way. This is having understandable language, story, character interaction, etc.... 2. Write on a schedule. Something like 1 chapter a week...

    Trans characters and pronouns

    Way to much man. Now for my reason for replying. Wifman became wife because romans had very similar grammar to english speakers. People would say things like “where’s your girl” (their was no concept of girlfriend by todays standard, they would abbreviate “wifman” in the same way though), so...
