I have two projects that I am currently working on at the same time. Book A and Book B. Not to imply that I am not passionate about B, but if I am being realistically honest I do care more about A. I have more passion and higher hopes for it because it has a message that is really important to...

I have read this before online and I just wanted to check here and see what you all thought. I've had it explained that it's sort of like a risk management for the Publishing Company if you are a brand new author they have no idea how well the book will sell so they would much rather publish a...

I don't mean to brag but you could call me a pro gamer I don't know if I'd call it clutch but this is the most hilarious and insulting way to beat Seymour Natus in FFX and I did this on a No Sphere Grid, No Summon, No Customize, No Overdrive, No Blitzball run

Thanks for the advice. I get very self conscious when it comes to trying to make my work original. I take so much inspiration from other sources I often am concerned that I am instead copying or ripping them off. I know the sayings of "there's no original stories" and the like. I also what...

I do want to have each of the major characters (npcs) represent or remind the MC of some sort of trauma or insecurity that made him want to escape reality. After spending time and going on an adventure with them, he is able to overcome these flaws within himself, which is why at the end he wants...

I have four stories that I am working on, hopefully to become novels. While the worlds, magic, and genres are all different, they all have a MC who is reluctant or uninterested, or even interested for the wrong reasons, to go on the quest/adventure and it is through the struggle of the conflict...

I'm going to have this set in a world where AI is very advanced, to the point where AI can be coded to follow parameters but also evolve and be their own individuals. Basically ChatGPT 1000. I'm not sure exactly how it will work yet, but I'm planning on having him become very close to a female...

I have been getting lots of great advice on my story idea about a MC who intentionally traps himself inside a video game. He's a beta tester for advanced technology that links his mind with the game world. He consumed harmful substances right before linking up so that the only thing keeping him...

So I'm thinking Indigo will be Tanzanite and Violet is definitely Amethyst. Yellow and Orange is where I'm stumped. Looking at images of Citrine gemstones, they mostly appear yellow. And Amber seems to be more orange. It's still a little hard because there can be a lot of overlap but looking at...

I'm designing a magic and pantheon system around color. The Goddess of Life (represented as a white diamond) split herself into seven divine beasts, each one representing a color of the rainbow. I want each beast to have a sacred gemstone. So red will be Ruby, Blue will be Sapphire, and green is...

Confused by the title? Let me explain, although I'm having a hard time putting it into words. So much of my ideas and style are influenced by anime and manga. Artists use what I would call embellished exaggerations, to enhance what is happening. A character might deflect an attack but the...

When I am thinking about characters, places, things, etc. I find it so difficult, if not entirely impossible, to imagine truly original designs. If I am creating a character, my mind goes to whatever character in fiction they would mostly resemble and then that becomes the mental image that gets...

I'm building a world for one of my stories and wanted some opinions and suggestions on it. I'm still working out many details and they are likely to change, but this is what I have so far: The gods lived in a realm of pure magical energy but the energy was chaotic and without order. They used...

Something I have been thinking about a lot recently is how I come up with ideas for my stories. I can easily create characters and I am able to spend hours making interesting settings and worlds but I keep drawing up blank when I actually try to think of a plot. I feel like I make worlds that...

I've been giving this a lot of thought and I think I am going to write these ideas as separate stories. I really like the world I've come up with for the original plot and am even considering writing other stories set in the world too, so I feel like doing the whole "its all a game" would not...
