For note, I had to cast blue and grey because my eyes change based on lighting. officially, they're blue. but I've had more people tell me they're grey than haven't. it depends on the hue of the lighting I'm in.

this is asked often, and it always boils down to the same basic rules: upload consistently (whatever your schedule, make sure you stick to it), engage with readers that engage with you (comment back being the biggest, and thanking reviewers when you're able to, as reviews are rare), and finally...

Every day for a short time is best, but only up to like, chapter 5-10 ish. If you consistently release every day for hundreds of chapters, the quality is likely to drop. There's also the issue of reader burnout. As such, I can't advise more than 2-3 times a week. I used to go twice a week, but I...

I admit I haven't read a ton of stories here, but from those I have read, the worst is still better than the worst on other sites, like Wattpad. I tried reading one that went a full chapter without a single period. Seriously. The entire chapter was one long run-on sentence, despite the multiple...

I made a new style with a glow variant. how do these look?

I appreciate the offer, but I really don't mind. It helps me to learn. Since I got my drawing tablet, I take any chance I can to break it out. I can't draw, but I use it for photoediting. I started out editing AI images (Lay the Dragon, DragonBound, and A Succubus' Love in my sig), but anymore...

I'm in the process of remaking it now. might take a bit - I was dumb and didn't save the working file, so gotta rebuild from the ground up.

visual metaphor. that's why I added the fog border. It's supposed to represent that it's HER farm, so she'll break the world to defend it (figuratively speaking. She wouldn't actually break the world. That'd destroy her farm too).

Yeah, I kinda rushed the font. And the posture was difficult to get right for the pose I wanted. But how is she too small? I'm genuinely confused on that one. I was debating on just doing a standard arms crossed pose and having her be the full length of the cover, but figured that'd be a bit...

This is a story about a guy. A guy who is struck by three separate means of death at the exact. Same. Moment. He gets reborn as a lowly farmer girl. He's happy with this. A nice, quiet life away from everything, only needing to deal with people when he goes to market. But there is a caveat...

I've read probably 2 stories that moved me to tears. The first was Tuesdays With Morrie, and the second was A Child Called 'It'. The first made me cry because the whole time you're reading, you have a vague idea of what's going to happen. But over the course of reading the book, you feel like...

I think it depends on the story. My currently story starts on the MC's last day in his home world before isekai'ing into another world. My next story starts similarly, but on a completely different tone.

That depends. character, item, place, etc? Also, how important is the thing being described to the story? If it's just a minor little detail, likely okay to leave it out. if it's a major plotpoint, then best to include it and trim later if needed. Just like in painting, what you DON'T show is...

my rule of thumb is only describe what is important for the audience to know. does it make a difference if she's blonde or brunette? likely, as that can affect peoples' perception of someone. same as if they have freckles or blue vs purple eyes, etc. Obviously you want them to picture the...

yeah. Webnovels tend to run the full range from illegible to masterclass. Sadly, more of them tend to air closer to bad as they're free to publish, so anyone with a keyboard can post it. That said, my goal is to earn a living from writing actual novels. My works posted here are rough...

shameless self-promo here, but if you don't mind a bit of smut, my stories are plot with a seasoning of smut, rather than smut-focused like some others. I've had a fair bit of positive feedback from my readers, too. They're all original fantasy adventures. Lay the Dragon and DragonBound are more...

as a smut author, I relate to this on a personal level. It sucks trying to ride the line between sounding like a thesaurus, (boob, mammary, globe, orb, ball of flesh, peaks, mountainous boulders, etc). or childish (how close can I get to saying "boob" without actually saying "boob", but letting...

I had this issue even the very next chapter. A little throwaway line that I thought would be fairly meaningless but my readers latched onto it. so next chapter, I had forgotten about it and had three people point it out. Since then, I've gotten an alpha reader to catch things like this for me...

oh, yeah, I feel that. Exposition is needed, but you don't want it to FEEL like exposition. It's a lot like the advice "show, don't tell".

I've always allowed instant or near-instant healing with three exceptions. 1, the wound cannot be cleaned via healing. That is to say, if the wound is dirty and you drink a healing potion, you now have a subdermal infection and a growing cyst due to it. 2, healing cannot revive the dead. The...
