    Written into a corner.

    You make the rules as the writer. It's generally preferable to have an 'out' in any scenario, even if it is main character doesn't come back or someone else becomes the main character. Also if the main character is working with the crown then they can just get hired directly by the crown through...

    How Much Would You Pay for a Light Novel Publishing Service?

    Vanity press is where the author pays to have the book published rather than the publisher paying for the privilege of publishing the material. Best case it allows you to have a physical book in case you want to pursue other publishers who will actually pay you for your work.

    How few tags for just your story?

    Takes three for me with pets forgetful protagonist and single parent. Some of them get really close. It's interesting because when I shot for tags I wanted to go more for ones that were decently populated rather than ones that perhaps fit better but didn't have a lot of stories

    What makes a character evil and when is that evil redeemable?

    General thought process question for something I'm working on right now. I've actually had a character who is an antagonist go from seeming like a total scoundrel to redemption in their backstory. While I'm tempted to take the same route again with another character, I have something different...

    Writing I'm stuck. Please discuss ideas with me.

    I like this kind of idea. I love gender bending tales [over two million words of them]. There is actually an AI comic out there I saw recently with the trapped as an NPC conceit too - https://www.deviantart.com/isekaimesenpai/art/That-Time-I-Got-NPCed-TG-Title-Card-1005386855 might give you...

    How do I upload an image?

    Imgur is pretty bad too considering they can just suddenly decide they don't like the content of your image and it's gone without warning.

    Does the Art Quality of the Novel Cover attract more readers?

    I feel like creativity in a cover is very important. You can have a very pretty or handsome anime character or a weird setting but when something is particularly curious or different or provocative or intriguing that's what's going to particularly grab a reader. A lot of fantasy novels all have...

    The Use of A.I. in writing novels

    I don't think that's the method of AI people are concerned about. Its more LLMs where it makes the story and there's little author input. Those are somewhat questionable. Using AI for the rewriting process is something I do with Grammarly/Quillbot/and DeepL. I use them to rephrase certain...

    Do you do anything special to reward yourself after writing a certain amount?

    I reward myself by writing more. I do eat something nicer when I finish a project as a little celebration but mostly it's like now do more

    How to increase the quality of writing style

    I can see what you mean very quickly. You're describing things but there's no reason for why these descriptions are being told. One thing you can focus on is limit the omniscience of the narrator. Paired down on details. Decide when you want to reveal a thing. Writing practice is a huge benefit...
