  • Hi I was wondering if it is OK with you that I have posted your fic "My harem academia" in ffn. I have of course written in the description that it is not my fic and wrote your name and that you can find it here in qq. If it is not OK with you I will remove it from ffn of course.

    Yeah, it's fine, just make sure to edit out the sex-scenes so your account doesn't get hit.
    Shadowreaders
    To lazy to do that so I will just hope for the best 😂
    Alrighty apologies in advance, for the silly post, but this is effecting my real life mood so I'm just going to ask. In Draconian Remnant, does the whole Yang/Jaune thing get any better, or is it pretty much doomed to failure the whole fic? .

    Hi I was wondering if it is OK with you that I have posted your fic "My harem academia" in ffn. I have of course written in the description that It is written by you and they can find it here in QQ. I posted it in ffn for two reasons, first I like the ffn tts so I can read/listen to the fic on my phone. The second reason is that this way more people can read your fic.

    If you don´t want me to post the fic in ffn just reply to this comment and I´ll remove it.

    I found your work by a ref from Dogbertcarroll and have enjoyed what I have had the chance to read. In regards to commissioned work, I searched Ko-fi (mentioned in a review) but found nothing. Where would I go for more information on how to and how much for commissions? Thanks

    Commissions are $400 for a >4k word chapter of one of my MG's, done either in part (it goes in the kueue when it hits 400) or in whole, and please be aware that I have a backlog so it'll be a few months before I get to it!

    Yo! How are you Lee? I hope your well, and if not then get better soon!

    Anyways, I wanted to ask something. Is it ok if I ask about a story of yours that you haven't updated in a while? By that I mean asking if it's dead, on Hiatus, your on break from it, etc., or does that count as Necro? If so, I'm so sorry. That is not my intend.
    Ostentatiousnessness
    You know, Lee, I'm kind of pissed off with you right now. I've got enough shit in my backlog to read without looking for a link to Draconian Remnant to send to someone and realizing that you've added four new stories that pique my interest in the last few months.

    Goddamnit man you can't keep tempting me with the good shit like this! xD

    Hey Leecifer.

    Got a question about the co-authored company verse you're doing with cherico.

    Just what would happen if an Agent in training decides to sit out the final exam chosen by his flagbearer?

    For instance, despite Stacy being the Flaggy, the Sergeant in one story (forget which) put the -cifer in that squad in charge of managing who took what classes (accidentally signing them all up for his course-load on the first day).

    Really, considering it's an open ended writing prompt, it's entirely up to you. If you want to start your MC off at a disadvantage, you could have the points the MC starts with cut down, as punishment for 'opting out', though you could also have had some, most, or all of those that took the Final killed, so the MC goes 'This sucks, but worth it.'

    Figure out what makes for the most interesting story, and start with that, and remember, screwing your character over arbitrarily in the setup works, but doing so once the story gets going usually just seems cheap, and will likely cause you to lose readers in the process.

    Random thought that might or might not help you down the line: Action Man 90's cartoon show would probably be a decent place to put someone down from a writers perspective since theres not too many captures but decent characters and plots to foil. Caused by a random yt vid about failed cartoon shows I saw which resulted in noticing the whole thing is on archive org. :)

    I liked it better when I was younger, but I could also tolerate the sun better back then. Now I want AC and toilets that flush in the summer instead of trees and outhouses.
    Leecifer
    Leecifer
    I could handle everything else, except the Sun, though I'd also prefer not to have been out in 90 degree weather with 90% Humidity, but that's into 'it's manageable' territory.
    Dragonhulk
    Dragonhulk
    I'd disagree if you were within a quarter mile of an outhouse, as I've found humidity makes everything about those things worse. Give me my bone dry heat any day of the week.

    Might be a bit of a weird question but what's your opinion on the whole rooster teeth shutting down and the debacles they had with handling shows like RWBY prior to that?

    A good premise can only carry you so far, and, that's what happened. While, in a perfect world they'd reboot the entire thing into something amazing, but since I heard Shawcross, one of the 'writers' that ran it into the ground, moved with the sale of RT to Viz, I'm not holding my breath.
    Dispeil
    Your stories always have something in them that makes me cry (I'm a sympathetic crier!) and I think that's awesome. Both Abbadon and the Draconic one have made me cry because of the MC's feelings of distrust and betrayal. So in trying to get the emotional depth across-at lease to me-it appears very genuine. Your writing will always be a stand-out to me!!
    Leecifer
    So, downside of taking good care of your car, but living in New England, is that the road salt literally will rot the metal. So, I've kept my car running for over a decade, but now it's at the point where the price required to fix my AC is literally more than the car is worth. But it works fine otherwise, so, while I save up for a new one, I'm driving with the windows down!

    That sucks. I've heard enough from friends that work at shipyards and ships in general about what a bitch salt is to deal with. Stainless steel? Hah! Meet piles of salt and the black arts of chemistry...

    Anyway, good luck and investing in a thermos flask filled with ice-water/tea etc till the worst of the heatwaves pass might be a good idea!

    Been there. I live in Utah, the state that has the Salt Flats. Guess what we use to melt the snow as well? Only difference is that we're further south and not by any large bodies of water other than the Great Salt Lake so we don't get as much as you and it probably doesn't hang around as long compared to you northeastern states.

    EDIT: They used to use ice in a box by the window as AC to help blow cool air in.

    Uuufff, yeah that sounds like an unpleasant situation to be in. Sad to hear its caused that much harm, at least it works otherwise, but yeah hoping that you get enough together for a replacement before more issues appear.
    How would taking a template work (when said template has access to a growth enhancer like a litrpg system) when the growth enhancer they have access to is fairly open ended, would it give me access to the system they use for me to do the fuck I want with or would it shoe horn me into roughly the same build that they got as I get to their level of power?

    Leecifer
    Leecifer
    It would, in fact, shoe-horn you into the system, but Templates don't have to be characters, they can just be the system, though you wouldn't get the growth enhancer, as the growth enhancer is part of their build so you can't a-la-carte it.
    Leecifer
    Leecifer
    If you want both the system, and the growth boost, I'd point out that you're no longer trying to make an interesting premise, you're just trying to cheese the power to 'win', at which point, given how broken the various Catalogs are because they have Point Gain mechanics baked in, just Capture some people and buy the additional abilities, though that'd likely make for a poor story.

    Just learned you have a fanfiction profile when i went to read abaddon borne and realized it hadn't been fully posted over here. Gonna go pilfer through your favorites and see what you like to read. I'm sure it'll be fun, given that one of the first things i saw was a naruto fic with naruto being the shinigami's summoner and romancing his mom.

    Just copy-editing it, not content editing, though. Also, yeah, I favorited that one, fuck, like a decade ago? It's really more horrified fascination that it's still updating than anything else. I have zero idea what happened in it.

    Random question, when one of your main stories (My Harem Academia, Draconian Remnant and Arcane Curiosity Explored) ends, will you choose any of the other, normally commissioned ones, to become part of the main trio?
    So, just checking, is there a NWD chapter ten or book 2 chapter 1 or whatever in the works? Or did it not get its life insurance paid up?
    Boop the silence
    Hey Lee, I was thinking you need to adjust your release schedule. You've stockpiled a few commissions there.
    Maybe something like;
    Week 1-Draconian remnant then a commission.
    Week 2-My harem academia then a commission.
    Week 3-Arcane curiosity explored then a commission.
    Week 4-a multiversal glimpse then a commission.
    2 chapters release a week should work IF you ever stick to your goal of 6k words a chapter.

    Do what works best, just hoping you don't drown coz I'm always looking forward to your next release. Whenever and whatever that may be.
    And looks like we're both wrong, a check of your kofi says 'of at least 4k words' a chapter.

    Main rotation chapters are at least 3k. Kommissioned chapters area at least 4k.

    This is an interesting theory, but I feel like the actual case is that italicized words give more information that isn't obvious to people complaining about it and, given that they don't want to learn or engage their brains, that makes them feel lesser, which creates the outraged reaction. Or maybe it's just "it's different, which means it's bad".

    Hey lee Sorry, English is not my first language. One question, have you thought about returning to worm someday in the future now that you've improved as a writer?

    You can always change that by donating to have a commissioned. Even a little bit each month will eventually see a new chapter be written. Though it may take Leecifer around 6 months to actually write it with his current backlog.

    Random line of thought I thought would be better shared here, would being forced to take a very weak weave based work contract or nothing one of the worst ways for the company to fuck a Lee over?
    From that Lee's POV, of course.
    Dragonhulk
    Hey Lee, I know you aren't prioritizing them because of the backlog of commissioned works, but I have a question about future MG's. One of the things I love about The Company that you and Cherico work in is that you can use any CYOA instead of the WC or the one you created for future builds.
    Dragonhulk
    Dragonhulk
    One of the things I liked the most about BTK and DS is that you didn't use any version of the WC, and I'm curious if any other CYOA has caught your attention enough that you'd use them in a Company story in the future.
    Leecifer
    Leecifer
    I've got a couple ideas, though the 'issue' is that a lot of the other CYOAs, because they aren't required to parasitize another IP, can easily be turned into original fiction.
    Dragonhulk
    Dragonhulk
    True, but I've also seen a lot that focuses on one fandom, so while limiting could still be fun to see done. Even the ones that encourage original fiction could be dumped in an IP. Still, looking forward to what you write no matter what CYOA is or is not used.

    Done marathoning Draconian, but it's RIGHT on the edge of 2 weeks silent. Should I PM my marathon comments? Post now? or are you near another update?

    Just considering how good a template/possession target V would make for that setting.
    Dragonhulk
    I just found an author on fanfiction.net named Vimesenthusiast. They use a speech to text program that allows them to produce three 30k chapters a month. With your backlog of commissions have you considered using a similar program?
    Leecifer
    Leecifer
    While I liked Vimesenthusiast's earlier works, their use of that program seems to have encouraged some very bad habits, as all their stories started getting very... basic and same-y, to the point I couldn't keep reading them.

    While I could blitz through my backlog, I wouldn't be delivering on the standard of quality people have come to expect, and that I, personally, hold myself to.
    Dragonhulk
    Dragonhulk
    The age old problem of quantity versus quality. Now that you have pointed it out I can even see the trap. I know when I am speaking I don't think as deeply as when I'm writing, so that probably translates when using speech to text programs.

    Oh well it was just a greedy thought on how I could get you to give me more stories quicker.
    Luke Dragneel

    Good for taking notes or writing out scenes, so long as you plan to go back over them with a fine toothed comb to see if the story flows properly. I also read Vime, but I find that he tends to get lost on the details and doesn't often check to ensure he's not treading the same path again.
