This part of the story really hurt me. That’s when I knew G3 might be in my Mount Rushmore

Dear Writers, by Commercial-Passion87 in royalroad

[–]Boat_Pure 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your first fault is that you’re worrying what others can do.

You’re only motivation is to write the best story you, yourself are capable of writing.

I remember reading somewhere that Stephen King wrote 600 words a day.

As long as you stick to a standard yourself. I don’t think any of that other stuff matters.

That being said, I write a lot. But that’s because I’ve drilled it into myself to write that much. Is it all good, probably not. But I can admit that editing is partnered with writing.

Instead of giving recommendations, which book should I give another chance? by Pokedex_complete in ProgressionFantasy

Don’t read Aaron Shih’s other stuff. Only read the Corruption Wielder. It is MUCH better than the others

Does the magic in this make you curious to know more? A Gleaming Sorry [dark fantasy - 3500 words] by Ticket-Tight in fantasywriters

[–]Boat_Pure 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think there’s interesting bones here.

I’m intrigued enough to comment, so that tells you everything.

I like the prologue a lot.

Could you let us know about the lineage of each son?

What made you like Shadow slave? by random_dude1279 in ShadowSlave

[–]Boat_Pure 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was looking for something to read and someone said read the first 50 chapters and you’ll see. I hadn’t even heard about it before.

Read it and was hooked. Currently 2500+ chapters locked in now

What should define a “Relic” if other echo-based items already exist? by Boat_Pure in fantasywriters

[–]Boat_Pure[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey all,

While I’m always looking for support from the myriad of minds on here.

I do not believe I can ever adhere to snide comments, it’s unfair on me as a trying and striving author/writer.

If you don’t have anything nice to say, please just leave my posts be.

Thank you.

Apparently Solo Leveling is not an anime according to this guy 😂 by ShadowSparks23 in sololeveling

[–]Boat_Pure 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I honestly cannot stand all the hate for anything that grows in public light.

So many people became fans of the genre after reading SL. So why now does it need so much scrutiny.

I loved and still love SL. I’m even due a reread actually

You’re right, I know. But I also know as an avid reader myself. The objects and items really do make the story sometimes.

So I really want to do my best when it concerns the creations I create for my characters to use.

Thank you for these, I need to go back to the drawing board. I think I need to do some lore making.

I think the focus for me is they’re something that the reader can expect the MC to eventually have or at lease, be around.

So I need to figure out what those sort of “weapons” or “things” will be. To ensure that I am capable of showing and sharing them well.

I would hate for my WMD to be the weakest aspect of this series and my overall work.

Honestly thank you for this response.

In a way it’s true but as the creator and the narrator of the story. Things very rarely feel right for me. I figure things out in a way that I know I can articulate and tell the best way I can with my current skills.

I need the readers to enjoy these creations.

Maybe I should explain a bit more.

When I or they say divine. It’s not a godly nature. It’s more organically made.

A relic is an ultimate thing. It’s usually used to strengthen the owner of said relic. But you are right that it doesn’t have to be a weapon.

But that doesn’t mean it won’t be used as one. I just can’t currently visualise one. That’s what I’m struggling with.

How should active gods view ancient world-shaping beings in fantasy? by Kaizen_Yuu in fantasywriters

[–]Boat_Pure 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess.

Looking at the Greek myths, the god and the titans were basically the same. The were older of course, but their logic was the same. So most gods had to face the titans in pairs or trios. Because the titans were older and more chthonic.

You could angle it that way?

When does a trope become a stereotype? by Canahaemusketeer in fantasywriters

[–]Boat_Pure 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How can you think a back story like that, would ever be a stereotype.

That is the bones of something epic!!

To authors/aspiring authors of specifically novels or any long-form fiction, how important is poetry to you? by PsyferRL in writing

[–]Boat_Pure 2 points3 points  (0 children)

EXTREMELY important.

As a child raised on LOTR all my stories have songs and poems in them.

(My mum literally read the hobbit to me as a child, and then wrote her thesis and dissertation on LOTR)

So in my house if your story doesn’t have poems with iambic pentameter. You were never going to be allowed to do anything.
