Go full meta. Make the author the protagonist and intervene with the OP characters' abilities to be OP, and then have the author laugh in their faces.

I probably should've made it clearer that it's supposed to be a split-screen panel. The visual distance isn't representative of the actual distance between them. Then again, I only really started drawing seriously a year ago, so definitely have things to improve on.

I didn't see any threads that have self-promotion for your own stories, and I assume there's a reason for that. Still, it felt like a waste to draw this comic I did to promote Chapter 7 of my web novel Luminescent, and then not have an outlet to share it. So here it is, along with a few lines...

Hmm... Hydaelyn, for seriousness. Aqua, for the lulz. Does Merlin count? I read The Lost Years of Merlin as a kid, so he and most of his story incarnations have got a special place in my heart.

All right. Discouraging, but not unexpected. Can't really do much about the first chapter since it's already out, but I'll keep all that in mind for future projects and chapters. I appreciate the feedback, mate!

All right. Needed to scratch that itch. Thanks all!

I'm sure someone already brought this up a long time ago, but I'm kind of curious. I notice a lot of my web novel's referral views come from novelupdates.com. Is Scribble Hub partnered with them or something? Does that site just automatically parse through all online writing platforms to become...

Kyo Ethnina from Shield Hero Season 2. His cackling grates my ears.

A couple more typically recommended series from the anime side: Code Geass: If you pretend the sequel movie doesn't exist Cowboy Bebop: If you believe what half the people say about the final scene

To add to your theory, maybe part of the reason why it's hard to end a long story is because the end was never planned ahead of time? It does feel like more than a handful of writers just start writing and have a mentality of "let's see where it goes". And/Or find themselves writing down a road...

Look. I wrote a story. Yay.

Taking a shower or a long bathroom break might also help kickstart your thoughts. That aside, you may want to try keeping a log of random ideas you have when you don't have time to write (maybe on your phone, or whatever else you can use as an instant notepad). That way when you have a writer's...

"I'm not eating that." "C'mon boss! I poured my sweat and blood into this!" "Oh gross, now I'm really not eating it."

Unironically, bathroom visits are great times to get your writing thoughts in order. Showers even more so.
