WSA 2025 Entry!! *** Noah was a nobleman. An orphan. Born with an empty constitution, he was pretty much useless…Until he realises the World’s Greatest Secret.

I just have to substitute someone in my place…Yes!” “All I have to do is to hire a Villain.” ***

Being the author of the breakout novel, Gates of The Primordials, Jarren Fletcher did not care about the constant critiques claiming he had a habit of treating extra characters as mere plot devices, creating and then dumping them once they’d served their purpose. To Jarren, it didn’t matter. Extras were just that—extras. All that mattered was the main character. But Jarren never expected to wake up in his own story, reincarnated as one of the meaningless, disposable extra characters, Deremiah Morcant—a coward who took his own life to escape the perilous challenges of the Gate Trials. Now, Jarren has to face those deadly challenges himself in the body of a weak, insignificant extra. He must find a way to survive in the rules of the dangerous world he had created, whilst also trying to save it. But time is running out. The next Wave is coming, and so are the paragons.

Sure, you may get tired of writing it after quite a while, but even so; it was a novel you enjoyed writing before, no? The words you put consideration to, the effort you did research overnight. The thrill to have a reader, the thought of someone enjoyed your work. All of it was something you used to cherish, but you may end up forgetting the joy over small things one day as you move on. Everyone loves their work. But some forget they did.

It was a strange blade, only a foot and a half long, with a sword-shaped tip, with a sharp edge on one side and a serrated edge on the other. The whole body is polished and bright. In the middle of the blade of the strange blade, the words "stump Order" are engraved. One side of the cutting edge was sharp enough to blow and break hair, while the serrated side was as sharp as the sharp teeth of a wild animal and cold. This strange blade has a horrible name: "Bones of Authority"

Revenge, Becoming the strongest, living a wholesome life, protecting the world? Nope, I was just curious. Curious about what the world would be like if there wasn't a single main character. I have always hated main characters who take all the spotlight for themselves and make a fool out of everyone just because they can; I wanted a world where everyone can be a main character. A world where the antagonist can kill the protagonist, a world without a protagonist. I always thought that it was an impossible task... however, fate wasn't as cruel as everyone thought it to be. Or, maybe I was just lucky... Lucky enough to get a second chance. Lucky enough to create a world where everyone can be a protagonist of their own story (Maybe not everyone, but I tried my best), a world without a protagonist. --------------- Join the discord server. https://discord.gg/BaP4c8b8Vq The timeline will be determined through the votes of the readers in the server.

This may sound biased, but... What's the most essential thing for being a writer? Idea? Or Imagination? It's lucid! The answer to it is imagination. While ideas can come and go, however, long-term success in writing comes from the depth and wildness of one’s imagination led by perfect implementation of it, known as writing. Through imagination, one can experience infinite lives, outcomes, victories, and defeats—all intertwined in stories that go beyond mere ideas. In that case, what would an author do if one has the lesser side in terms of imagination, unlike one's renowned writer relative? Read on to discover the winner in the endgame of Memoir!

Book Summary: Time Loop Bank In a world where time is the ultimate currency, the Time Loop Bank controls the most powerful resource known to humanity—the ability to borrow, trade, and manipulate time itself. Those who are wealthy extend their lives indefinitely, while the desperate gamble their futures for a fleeting second chance. Ethan Carter, once known as Caleb in the underworld, wakes up in a hidden facility after a near-fatal betrayal. His former identity, erased. His past, buried. But the one thing he cannot escape is the debt that binds him to the system. He once thought he was playing the game, but now he realizes he was just another piece on the board. As Ethan unravels the truth behind the Time Loop Bank, he discovers a conspiracy that stretches far beyond crime syndicates and corrupt officials. The elite aren’t just buying time—they’re rewriting history, shaping reality itself. And at the center of it all is a hidden force manipulating the flow of time for its own agenda. Armed with stolen data and pursued by those who would rather see him dead than let the truth out, Ethan must navigate a world where every second counts.

Shawn Pendragon, a seventeen-year-old boy, was living an ordinary life on earth. He was a student at Jefferson High School. Just like other people, he had a low profile. He loved keeping things private, never posting on social media about what was going on in his life, and never trusting anyone, not even his own family and closest friends. That day, about one o'clock in the afternoon, Shawn and his best friend, Justin Meyer, were crossing the highway when a rushing ambulance suddenly appeared. His friend managed to survive, but he was unfortunately hit and died on the spot. That ambulance didn't have a chance to bring him to a hospital; he was brought to a morgue instead. "Where am I?" Shawn wondered when he opened his eyes and found out he was lost in the middle of nowhere. It was a place he had never been—the place where his new journey was about to begin.
