I have tried to write a novel many times before, never got super far on any of them. I understand take inspection but don't feel pressured to write what anyone here says. Write about something you want to write about or it will be hard to stay motivated.

I have always found the idea of a modern world (ie 20th century tech and beyond) with fantasy races as a super cool idea. Like elves, orcs, goblin, ect and then a modern world that reflects how different races would shape it. There doesn't necessarily need to be magic but having it would be cool but make having a believable modern world hard to do.

I have tried to make one with this kinda of premise a couple of weeks agowith a 18 year old elf as the main character. I may or may not ever continue it tho? 

I posted the small written part on here but it's not that good and needs refinement.


Anyway hope something I said helped or was inspiring! I wish you luck on your novel! 🩵

Well, 7Bear7, thanks for sharing your experience.

I guess you just like me read Web novels.

I have an authentic idea. I am working on the power system now. Then I will move to Political and social world building.

This all seems very tiring.

Write what you feel, write what you think. Because when you express what you feel, it is the most variant version from others. :)

Thanks you guys for your kind comments.

I initially wanted to write a Webnovel, but got a reality check latter on. Although I have a rough outline of the story, I am considering not to write it. I come to realize that writing without a purpose and a message is no writing at all.

In future, I will try to write it but as I am now, I neither had any grand ideals nor truly profound messages that I Wanna tell the world.

The webnovel industry is already Saturated spicy stories with no real substance. I don't wanna waste my efforts by adding noise in already chaotic situation.

Sure, I like the idea of a college student finding their way through life and college through variety vivid experiences that are not taught in lecture rooms like how a traumatic experience can teach you like how tough life can be
