    Should I do this?

    So which demon did you sell your soul to? I might need to upgrade.

    Should I do this?

    I have 3 simultaneously ongoing novels. What I can say is I would probably do better with readership if I focused it all on one story and could manage daily releases on that one story, but I still do it the way I do because when I worked on just one story all the time it was leading to burn-out...

    Your live action adaptation.

    If I had infinite funds I would much rather have Madhouse or a similarly talented animation company use those unlimited funds to make the best looking and sounding anime version of my story rather than live action. I mean imagining my work looking as good as Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust or...

    How long you became a well-known author since you first published in SH?

    I think it was maybe a day or two, but to be honest it was me continuing a novel I had started and was on hiatus on WN so I feel it's cheating to count it because it had been a very popular story on WN already and I'm sure there is an overlap of WN readers being on SH too. Getting that sort of...

    Spending chapters with your characters separated across continents

    I don't think there is a going to be a generalised answer because it would depend on the genre of the story and the relationship between the characters up to that point. If the two are only together in the prologue and the readers aren't that attached to the characters yet then having them...

    is it still possible to be author?

    You must not be in the US, because in the US you don't need to submit your work for it to be copyrighted although doing so is beneficial since it would be an easy proof of it being copyrighted at a specific date. If you don't it's your responsibility for proving you are the one that created the...

    What other websites do you use for reading?

    Mostly ScribbleHub, then WebNovel(I no longer pay for anything there though as I feel paid WN is a rip-off) and finally some FF.net.

    Where do you guys usually promote your stuff?

    I guess in a sense SH, WN, and FF are my promotion as far as getting people to patreon. As for promoting the actual writing itself I don't really. I don't think most promotion for web novels does all that much and even when it does most of the time isn't that cost effective. You might be able...

    Asking for tips on making slow-pacing interesting

    You can make things slower paced, but you still need to be doing something with that time. Even if not much progress on the main plot is happening I still need to be feeling my time isn't being wasted so stuff of interest needs to be happening.

    What did you learn today?

    It's hilarious that the creator of something can be wrong about the name of what he created and how it is pronounced, but this case proves it can be true.

    Opinions on Wattpad?

    As a writer I have no clue as I've never posted there. As a reader it didn't seem to be to my taste. The target audience did not seem to be my kind of reader and though some of the novels might appeal to me it was a minority and finding them seemed a hassle.

    Stories in Modern Setting

    When the setting is fantasy people let you handwave a lot more away. Also a lot of readers value escapism so having a world less similar to our own has a draw of it's own because by its very nature it satisfies that desire. The kind of power fantasies popular here also have an easier time in a...

    Have you ever watched an anime filler episodes that was good?

    Most people aren't fans of it. Probably a reason why it isn't as common as it used to be. Who would be excited about being forced to sit through often lower quality content only to find out it won't even have any effect on the characters or story going forward. It'll feel like your time is being...

    Have you ever watched an anime filler episodes that was good?

    As I mentioned before. To fill time hence the name filler. It's not quite as common with changes in how anime are made and released, but it used to be quite common for anime of popular series to start catching up to the manga. So to prevent them from catching up once they got closer they would...

    Who would you save or not?

    Shou Tucker, kill in the most painful way possible which would also save Nina.

    Have you ever watched an anime filler episodes that was good?

    Filler at least in anime come from anime catching up to the manga end needing filler content created purely by the anime company with minimal or no input from the original creator to fill time. As you can expect most of the time it not being written by the manga author that made the manga...

    is it still possible to be author?

    That's not the definition of author though... neither is it by a legal standard.
