Yes, MCs are hard! When it comes to pinpointing flaws, I always have the most trouble with them. 😛
I’m so glad you think so!

Okay, cool. Honestly, I don’t care if you like it or not. It will not offend me either way. Like whatever you want book-wise. You don’t have to rest any case.

True. Where do all those Eastern Dragons be tho?True. True. I actually liked the three introductions when I first read it too. I thought it was a deliberate poke at all the fantasy clichés. I hoped the story would be a somewhat fun yet heartfelt parody of the common fantasy stories. However, the rest of…[Read more]

Not-So-Secret Secret Assassin replied to the topic How do I make a non-cliche escape scene? in the forum Plotting 3 years ago
I have written quite a few escape scenes in my lifetime (the very nature of my stories require it to be so), and cliche escape scenes are one of my pet peeves in stories, so I think that I have a few tips that I can help you with.
First, what constitutes a “bad escape scene”?
1. It’s super easy, and it makes the villain look weak
2. It’s…[Read more] -
E. K. Seaver replied to the topic How do I make a non-cliche escape scene? in the forum Plotting 3 years ago
Funnily enough I’m writing a prison escape scene in my book too. The prison is on the top of the mountain, and of the two people escaping, one knows where they’re going and the other doesn’t. I feel like it’s fairly interesting having the POV character being forced to rely on the already somewhat untrustworthy informed character. They…[Read more]

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin dude there’s literally so many ways to get around that. You could have a sibling/friend/parent take you. The gym could be in your neighborhood so you just drive a golf cart. It might be near enough to walk or ride a bike to.
Your mind games will not work on me. I’ve orchestrated my own for years.

@not-so-secret-secret-assassin Book one isn’t that good. Even Peterson himself has expressed displeasure for it. I wasn’t a fan until books three and four. Those were solid and the worldbuilding was complete enough that it’s where the story was fully in swing.

@devastate-lasting Your silence speaks volumes. You HAVE read it before, Linyang. You just chose to give yourself amnesia so you didn’t have to continue having nightmares about it. Smart choice. Any tips for self induced amnesia? Oh yeah, you wouldn’t remember.
And thanks for your blessing. I’ll need it.

I don’t like anime. It’s too nerdy for me. I’m not a cringe weeb. I’ve moved on to greater things.
That said, I only like Attack on Titan.
And maybe Full Metal Alchemist.
And To Your Eternity.
And Erased.
And Death Note.
And The Promised Neverland.
And Your Lie In April.
And Hunter X Hunter.
But other than that, there definitely isn’t any…[Read more]
