    Trans characters and pronouns

    Keep it with what everyone else uses. It is already a confusing topic for most, so adding onto it is not a good idea. Is the trans thing the focus of the narrative or the story? I personally don’t have an issue with characters being like this but I do dislike it when the entire narrative is...

    Is werewolf a furry?

    As long the face is human, with minimal body hair, then it is not furry. If it is basically a two-legged wolf then it is furry.

    Reincarnated to another world, but...

    Depends on the setting I guess. It could go basically any direction in most settings. Are they in a renaissance era civilization? Is a post-apocalyptic world? Is there a widespread religious sect? Does that sect believe that they were given knowledge to help the world or to destroy it? Do any...

    Our Novels Were Being Plagiarized by Others

    No matter what you do, unless you turn the novel into patreon only, bots will get your novel. IDK if you do this or not but a 10-20 chapter backlog that readers can pay to read ahead (using things like patreon, buy me a coffee, etc...) that you will upload to a free site (like scribblehub, royal...

    is a protagonist whose gender you don't reveal considered genderless?

    Not really. It would be more of a mystery that readers would guess at based one their sexual preferences, way they dress, how they act, etc... I am currently writing a post-apocalyptic thingy where the MC gender isn’t revealed. Similar questions popped in my mind, but it would be good to have a...

    Creating a Devil Fruit

    It wouldn’t happen during battle, but instead during recuperation. I do apologize for not being clear in my writing. The original post has been edited in an attempt to clear up future misconceptions.

    Creating a Devil Fruit

    Looking to bounce ideas with people on how to make a Devil Fruit that is logical (in One Piece context). Currently thinking of a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit named the “Battle-Battle Fruit” (placeholder). It makes the consumer a “Fighting Human”, which increases combat prowess with each battle or...

    What's a sane yet horrible reason to lock your 1yr child in their room/prison? Victorian Fantasy Setting.

    I would like for some context but heres a few off the top of my head. If they show unnatural intelligence or sadism then a good reason would be they don’t want the church after the child. On the same note, the church/devoted could be trying to “purify” the child. If the child has genetic...

    Good Anime/Manga?

    I do agree that Fairy Tail does have loose guidelines regarding the power systems. The main strength of the power system is it’s good representation of a variety of branches while still holding general rules for the magic casting. Each magic type has a trigger or stipulation for casting the...

    Good Anime/Manga?

    I am honestly tired of shutting my brain off just to tolerate a book/show. There are to many novels that are all over the place in regards pf power systems. It is understandable for features like mysterious power ups to exist, to an extent, but I need something that can be written down and still...

    How many chapters to make before uploading?

    Personally I don’t think chapters that are formatted “1.1, 1.2, 1.3, etc...” are actually chapters. They are more like a scene or subplot. So 200-250k words is about 100-150 chapters. Which is a respectable novel size (unless you’re a chinese man trying to “milk the meta”[?]) so 20 chapters is...

    How many chapters to make before uploading?

    So one of my least favourite things to see is a novel being uploaded with (a) wonderful title, description, genre(s) and tag(s), yet only 1 chapter has been uploaded. Most readers will think “too little chapters, I’ll comeback when there is more” but very few will actually comeback later. Even...
