    Make up names or use English or Japanese or etc. names?

    So, when writing, who here prefers to make up their own fantasy-ish names or use English or Japanese or (insert whatever names here) some other kinds of names for characters? For those who chose to use already known names rather than make their own up, do you use your own language or a foreign...

    Shounen Arcs

    Always wondered, how do people who work on shounen-esque stories create so many different arcs? And then still have the creative capacity to develop filler arcs? I mean, like Bleach, One Piece, Naruto, Yu Yu Hakusho, Inuyasha, Fairy Tail, or Gintama....how? Quite often, few of the arcs have any...

    Tips For Writing In 1st Person?

    I have always written in 3rd due to my preference of having multiple MC's. I likely will continue to do so. But, if I wanted to use first, is there any worthwhile tips someone could give me to make the transition to a new style easier?

    Writing When is it considered too much action?

    For example, you are reading a story that takes place in a war right? Now, without going into the nitty-gritty details of anything, the author decides to describe one battle right? Okay. Now, in story-time, the next battle occurs within a few days and he writes that scene as well. Next, since...

    I'm wondering if someone can trace a Map?

    I don't need any details, landscapes or whatever, I just need someone create four specific landmasses. They can be empty, I'll do the details myself. I just can't draw worth shit. I also need them to be of a large size. I also have the exact shape I want them. I have all the details, no need to...

    How do YOU come up with the names for your Cultivation Levels, Ranks, Stages, or whatever?

    As it says in the title: How do you come up with the names for cultivation rankings? Me personally, I prefer the simplistic approach of just naming them after a letter that I've seen some Western Cultivation type stuff do. Like, Rank E, Rank F, Rank D, Rank C, Rank B, Rank A, and then usually...

    How To Write A OP Fantasy MC Story

    As the title says, I love reading stories with OP MC's, but how to keep it interesting if I wanted to write one myself? My usual style, would be to make the MC OP'er than everyone else initially, but gradually introduce villains that can either rival, or give him a run for his money. But still...

    Multiple POV's

    Any opinions? I've always enjoyed stories with multiple POV's. I've also always wanted to write a story that uses multiple POV's heavily. For example, (but not quite the same as what I would do), the Game of Thrones series. Now, keep in mind that I haven't read these books and only gave a...

    Not A Map Of My Stories/Random Throwaway That I Made Though

    Not a map of any story of mine, but it is a map made from a story I once intended to write, but scrapped the idea for something similar storyline-wise, but with the map being completely different. Anyway, here. Was made using Azgaar. If by some chance, someone actually wants it for their own...

    Two Tales

    I have two stories I plan to post either tomorrow or within the next several days or so. One is sitting near 10k at 3-4 chapters so far and is called Welcome To Sanctuary. The other is at over 40k, probably closer to 50k and is at 7-8 chapters. I wanted to leave my synopsis for both and gather...
