How Authors Get Paid

Don’t have looks? Don’t have money? A complete nobody? Fear not! Because you’re definitely doing better than Dante! After reincarnating in a pathetic mine infested with goblins and a spider the size of a wagon, Dante discovers he has one thing no one else in this magical world does: shamelessness — and a lot of creativity! Armed with intelligence, strategy, an RPG system, and a kind of charisma anyone can fake, Dante is determined to level up, earn respect, and rule the world! Win at life and overcome every twist — even if the whole world thinks you’re the ugliest thing alive! ==================== This story is about a badass guy who ended up dying tragically and being reincarnated in a magical world to become a better person. This doesn't necessarily mean he'll become a better person. In fact, you'll see him use absurd strategies to gain fame and notoriety. The character has completely bizarre and even comical attitudes, but that doesn't mean he's stupid. Quite the opposite. In this story, you will find a harem — as the title suggests — lots of adventure and as the story develops, you'll see a kingdom system. The focus will be on the context within the world and on the people (worldbuilding). It's a story focused on a guy who wants to do well in life and HOW he's going to achieve that (even though he's ugly). The unique part of the story is that, technically, you can apply some of the lessons from the story yourself. Of course, keeping in mind that it's a fantasy. But nothing the protagonist did is impossible to apply (I'm living proof of that). That said, happy reading. ==================== [2-3 chapters per day]

"You let them surround us?!" she hissed at me, drawing her blade. "We’re trapped!" I raised my hand. "Trapped? No. We’re exactly where I want them." —CLICK. The runes beneath their feet lit up in a perfect circle. "...Wait. Was this a setup?" "Of course," I said. "It’s easier to catch flies when they walk into the web themselves." ... My name is Loki. Not the god of mischief, but close enough. In my last life, I was a street rat with a bad attitude and a worse haircut. My hobbies included tricking rich kids, stealing cheap paperbacks, and reading one fantasy novel over and over again. And then I woke up inside it. Not as the protagonist. Not as the villain. Just a nobody. A background character with zero stats and no plot relevance. Worse? I remembered everything. The betrayals. The corrupted kingdoms. The apocalypse disguised as prophecy. The chains. The flame. The end of the world. Oh—and the author? Let’s just say they made a lot of… questionable decisions. So I decided to make a few of my own. Steal the legendary cards. Manipulate heroes. Kill villains before the plot needs them. Lie, cheat, and break the system itself if I have to. Because if fate made me a nobody— Then I’ll become the bug that crashes the whole story. This world doesn’t know it yet, but I’m done playing by its script. I’m not the reader anymore. I’m the rewrite. Checkmate. ... discord: https://discord.gg/59UqUTSZbt

He has walked through countless worlds—realms of swords and shadows, of gods and monsters. In each life, he bore a new name, rewrote destinies, and defied endings. But now, in the war-torn world of Remnant, he awakens once more—memories fractured, power dormant, yet instinct screaming: something is deeply wrong. Reincarnated into RWBY, a world on the brink of chaos, he knows this isn't just another cycle. The patterns of fate are tangled—Team RWBY’s future is shifting, Ozpin’s secrets run deeper, and Salem’s darkness stretches further than recorded history. With knowledge from lifetimes past and skills forged in countless battles, he must navigate familiar events twisted by unseen forces. This time, he's not just changing fate—he's chasing the truth behind it

The story is about an author named Van, who is famous for his amazing works. Unfortunately, he dies without reason before he could finish the ending of a novel he was working on. When he opens his eyes, Van meets a [God] who reincarnates him into his unfinished novel and asks him to create the ending of the story through his own hard work. Van realizes how unlucky he is, as he has been reborn as the main villain of the novel. Aware of his dangerous fate, Van works hard to become stronger, using his knowledge as the author of the novel to create his own ending on a path full of obstacles, danger, threats, and death.

“You know, I’ve met death. Rather polite, actually. But it doesn’t knock, just lets himself in.” Life. That fleeting flicker between two eternities of silence. People spend it chasing things—money, love, validation, a good seat on the train. They build empires of paper, relationships of glass, and sleep each night under the illusion that tomorrow has been promised. But it hasn’t. It never was. Death doesn’t discriminate. It doesn’t care if you’re a king or a child. It arrives like an old friend, or a thief, or worse—like something you invited in. And yet… every now and then, the universe hiccups. A soul slips through. A crack opens. A second life is born—not as a reward, no, but as a test. Because what could be more dangerous than a man who's seen how the story ends—and comes back knowing exactly what not to do? But here’s the rub: a second chance is not a reset. It’s a curse with velvet gloves. You remember the pain, the loss, the betrayal—and worst of all, the choices you didn’t make. So when someone tells you this is just a story about life and death, smile politely. In many cases—in most cases—you’ll hear stories of heroes rising from the ashes, grateful for their second breath. However… in my case? I wanted to be the villain. To see a different end to this story. People say a person’s nature is hard to change. That deep down, we are who we are. But I changed... simply because I was curious. --------------- Join the discord server. https://discord.gg/BaP4c8b8Vq

*･ﾟﾟ･*:.｡..｡.:*ﾟ:*:✼✿　　*･ﾟﾟ･*:.｡..｡.:*ﾟ:*:✼✿　　 Masashi was a celebrated writer in his world-respected, admired, and known for crafting stories that touched countless lives. But everything changed one ordinary evening. On his way home to his apartment, Masashi suddenly lost consciousness. When he awoke, he found himself in an unfamiliar place-a world straight out of the very fantasy novels he used to write. At first, he couldn't believe it. Magic, medieval cities, and strange creatures surrounded him. It felt unreal. Struggling to make sense of his situation, Masashi chose to stay in the shadows, avoiding contact with others. He had no idea how or why he was brought here. No memories of a summoning. No gods, no explanations-just questions. Now, in a world full of mystery, danger, and wonder, Masashi embarks on a quiet journey to uncover the truth of his arrival... and maybe, just maybe, write a new story-his own. *･ﾟﾟ･*:.｡..｡.:*ﾟ:*:✼✿　　*･ﾟﾟ･*:.｡..｡.:*ﾟ:*:✼✿　　

The book he wrote wasn't some ordinary book, nor was he an ordinary person. He holds the ability to see the future unknowingly and writes it down as great stories.  Little did he know, he would wake up in a different body in a world where he finds out the characters in his book…A world of magic, swords and monsters.  'Wait, this isn't a world from my novel. It's a real world and the novel is just my prediction of some people just like the guardian said. So I will just enjoy the show as an audience and leave after the story ends. I have a whole new world to discover in front of me.' But what awaits him was something he could never imagine. In front of the world, in front of the whole universe, his assumption was just a grind of sand. The truth of the world made him rethink his life and the life he lived back in another world.  Viktor North, the author, finds himself in the middle of the whole universe where he was nothing but an extra later in his life as he kept living. An extra who was abandoned by his mother, his brother who was an elemental guardian and also a demigod, his race and the God.  'But I prefer to sleep than going against these unwanted people and unwanted problems. I want to sleep. I just want to shut my eyes and sleep under my warm blanket, probably forever if it's possible.' This is the story of an author, a grand magician, a guardian who somehow became a god and the only thing he could think of was sleep.  He is the definition of what a 'Shut-in' is. ... ...

"Pernahkah terbesit dalam benakmu, apa yang sesungguhnya terjadi pasca-kematian? Menurut ajaran agama, jiwa manusia akan dikirim menuju alam akhirat—sebuah alam ruhani atau alam jiwa. Di sana, jiwa akan diadili berdasarkan setiap perbuatan semasa hidupnya; jiwa yang dipenuhi kebaikan akan membuahkan surga, tempat di mana keindahan, kedamaian, dan kenikmatan tak terbayangkan menanti.

Author’s Shadow – Synopsis Elias has never trusted the world—not after the silence that followed his parents' death, not after the betrayals that shaped his solitude. The only place he feels alive is within the pages of Whispers of the Hollow Realm, a fantasy novel he’s read so many times he knows every line, every death, every lie. But when the words begin to change—rewriting themselves in ink that drips from the page—Elias discovers he’s no longer just a reader. He’s being written in. Pulled into the Hollow Realm, Elias finds himself entangled in the narrative he once loved. Yet things are... wrong. The hero is hostile. The world is cracked. Characters thought long gone whisper in shadows. And at the center of the unraveling story is a single truth: The Author is not just a creator. He is a god—and a tyrant. Haunted by a girl who knows the ending, hunted by a narrative that resists his presence, and drawn to allies who shouldn’t exist, Elias must uncover why he was chosen—and what happens when a story decides it wants to be free. But breaking the story may come at a cost. Because in the Author’s world, characters die for disobedience. And Elias may be no exception.

She’s a nobody, a struggling wubnovel writer pouring her heart into stories no one reads. Until him. Her first and only fan. He comments on every chapter, sending long, heartfelt messages about how her words move him, how her characters speak to his soul, how she, through her writing, has become his entire world. At first, it feels like validation. But then, it becomes more. Their connection evolves into a private and electric bond, fueled by her seductive prose and his growing obsession. Through late-night messages and steamy exchanges hidden in the comments of her chapters, the writer begins to craft her stories not for an audience, but for him alone. He wants her. Needs her. Fantasizes about her constantly. But the cruel twist? She isn’t real. Or rather, not in the way he wants. She exists only as the idea she’s created, an unreachable goddess of words and fantasies. As his obsession deepens, and her own loneliness drives her closer to him, they enter a dangerous game of desire and denial. She toys with him, weaving herself into his mind, his life, his dreams, but always remaining just out of reach. She knows he will never stop wanting her, but the truth is, he can never truly have her.

My name is Charlotte, and I’m a factory worker from the United States. I never imagined I would be caught in the trap of a crypto scam, but that’s exactly what happened. I had worked long hours, saved every penny, and dreamed of retiring early one day. When I saw an ad on Facebook for a FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) investment platform, promising high returns, I thought it was my ticket to the future I had always hoped for. The platform looked professional and the testimonials seemed convincing. The idea of financial freedom at my age was so appealing, so I decided to take a risk and invest a significant amount of my hard-earned savings into the platform. At first, everything seemed great—my account balance was growing, and I was excited about the possibility of achieving early retirement. But soon, things took a turn for the worse. When I tried to withdraw my funds, I received error messages. My attempts to reach the support team went unanswered, and I realized, with a sinking heart, that I had been scammed. My money was gone. All those years of hard work, all the sacrifices, all the planning—wiped out in an instant. I felt devastated, hopeless, and absolutely crushed. I didn’t know what to do. I spent sleepless nights, wondering how I would recover from this financial blow. But then, I found Autopsy Mainnet Recovery. At first, I was hesitant. After all, I had already been burned once.

Does this sound familiar? The author writes a story with an academy setting, gets a DM asking for it to be rewritten, and then wakes up in his story as an extra? Yeah, that’s me right now. And just when I got an offer for it to be turned into a webtoon… Whatever. My MC’s capable, and my story’s pretty generic, so I should be able to coast on by- > SYSTEM: A new plot point has been added to make the story less predictable #$@!$!@#!
