    What is a Hero?

    Take away the bland, fairy tale definition for a second. Take away the magic swords, the gilded shining armor. Remove the party and the demon or whatever evil they have to face. Define what a Hero is. Just the person. The individual. What do you believe makes a Hero? Is it their choices? Their...

    Royal Families are pretty cringe

    Really not a fan of those "king" and "queen" monikers. They really are a problem. Especially their runts they call children. "Princes" and "Princesses". Those lot are just cringe, bros and brolies. Always swinging their fake power around and making the regular people do their bidding. Gross. I...

    Over 600k Words

    Hey y'all. Going to go on a little personal rant here. Sometimes, I find it baffling to think of how long I've been writing for a single story.

    Referrers?

    I've been trying to get a firm grasp on how SH actually tracks things like viewership and the link, but the one thing that always sort of gets me hung up is the 'Referrers' tab. From my understanding, these are like originating links and things people have clicked on in order to get to your...

    Regional Map for Novel

    Made a regional map for my book. Paid 5 dollars for Inkarnate and after fussing around for maybe two or three hours initially, tinkering and figuring it out, I ended up making something a lot better than I was in Photoshop. Along with my map, I'll provide a brief review if any of you out there...
