Re: Advice on giving up
Idk if this is supposed to go here or not, but I want to ask whether it’s the right time to give up on a story I’ve written or should I give it another chance. So the background is that I’m writing (...)

Re: Writers are the worst procrastinators. Do you agree with this statement? And how do you fix it?
Money is the most sincere form of compliment. Writers love being complimented. So do women. So does anyone, lol?

Re: Negative reviews being censored?
You sound a little out of touch with reality there, buddy. Not really. If you want headpats and hugboxes, go show your work to your friends and family. They're nice, they'll tell you that you (...)

Re: Why are female protagonists so prevalent on the top stories on royalroad?
I think it's a weird assumption that a female MC will inherently perform worse with male readers than a male MC to the degree that it actually matters. On the other hand, I think the number of female (...)

Re: How do you feel about having different human races in a fantasy setting
We are talking about entertainment, not the news and obscure articles. Yes. Your point? If we weren't talking about entertainment, this wouldn't be with my time. If we're talking about America (...)
