    Is it just me, or does a lot of webnovels rely on Tell-not-Show instead of Show-not-Tell?

    There are cases where telling is preferable to showing. For example, in a scenario where you don’t want to simply reveal the trick. It ruins the mystery and intrigue if you show too much. In such cases you should use a mix of the two methods. You show the reader only what you want the reader to...

    Fiction doesn't affect reality. Fiction enhances reality.[Warning: Long Post]

    If you continually tell children over and over again from a young age that they’re the root of all evil, they’re oppressing others by merely existing, you portray them as being school shooters, that they need to continually apologize for things other people in the past did to people they had...

    Fiction doesn't affect reality. Fiction enhances reality.[Warning: Long Post]

    All the weebs in the world who have tried to go Super Saiyan by screaming their lungs out looking like they’re trying to squeeze out the most massive shit of their life would like to have a word with you about whether fiction affects reality. Same with every man or woman who has ever Naruto run...

    If you’re looking to make money off writing and you’re not then there’s a very simple reason why. You’re not writing what is popular for the given demographic you’ve targeted. It’s a cold truth but you don’t make money writing absolutely anything you want anywhere you want. You need to take the...

    Well in terms of profitability of smut vs action on SH vs RR I can provide some numbers. An action/adventure that was posted only to RR like three to four years ago made 10k lifetime to date. Word count was in the ballpark of 100k words. A story with smut mainly posted to ScribbleHub for about...

    animal girls (i.e. catgirls, doggirl, etc)

    I get it’s about mammals, but how has no one even mentioned snake or spider girls?

    This is David.

    You forgot to mention the best part when David wrote the prince’s name in his notebook before he arrived at the ball and the prince had a heart attack leading to his crown slowly falling off his head as he lost his balance. The artwork of that scene is a true masterpiece never seen before in...

    Scam or prank???

    The amount of information being sold online is massive so them knowing your hometown isn’t weird at all. If they do contact you again, I’d just make a burner email and get them to send an email to it. Don’t click on any attachments or reply to it, but just do a header trace on it and you can...

    How to market?

    Your first mistake is failing to find your targeted demographic audience with the way you’re advertising. Advertising works a lot better for big authors, but for no-name authors without a pre-established reader base, you’re destined to fail and very likely will lose both money and time...

    Do singers who don't write their own songs deserve fame? Does anyone deserve fame?

    Really doesn’t matter what else singers do. The topic/point made was singing not being difficult. Not singers. Also, anyone can get a high quality autotune for free if they really want it these days. There are even presets available to get a good autotune. You just need to search for it and...

    Do singers who don't write their own songs deserve fame? Does anyone deserve fame?

    “Singing is difficult.” Maybe in the past, but not anymore. Literally anyone can sing now with all the post production editing that goes into making music these days. The things you can do with tech makes singing a joke. You can make the most tone deaf person in the world sound like they have...

    Anyone know how to edit large files?

    Just search an online PDF to doc converter. Example pdf2doc.com. May screw with formatting though. Once in doc format should be able to open in google docs just fine. Google docs can handle 100k words pretty easy. Mine handles 200k words just fine, just have to give it a minute or so to load...

    What happens at the age of 24?

    Probably a phishing scam trying to collect information on people who’ve just finished university. Could be for some sort of future scam campaign related to student loan forgiveness from the government or something.

    Are we dangerous?

    Whatever plan you think is a good method to kill very likely isn’t going to go as planned in the real world. There are too many variables to take into consideration. So no, you’re not dangerous because you think you have ideas on how to kill. You’re only dangerous if you’re capable of killing...

    Writing I NEEED your opinions. 。゚(*´□`)゚。

    As everyone else pointed out context is lacking. The process of how you got there. A scene isn’t a sad one that will make people tear up without it’s high points preceding it. A way around this is to touch on a subject the reader could relate to using analogies. For example equating it to and...

    Business-related Novels

    Starting a book store(a physical one with a building) these days or in the future sounds like it’d be a recipe for financial suicide. But what do I know? Maybe Amazon somehow won’t make physical book stores go extinct.
