Wondering if anyone has any perspective, insights and opinions as to when or how or where the next great novel will come from? What would allow or enable the next JK Rowling to unleash their talent in today's world? It's been close to almost 30 years since the Philospher's Stone, and I don't think we've had anything close to rivalling JK Rowling in the recent years. Harry Potter transcends borders and cultures, just recently in Vietnam I hear my tour guide joking telling an elderly British guest he must've been Harry Potter when younger.

Hi everyone, learning the ropes here :) for beginners should we be players first or I was reading on Discord that it’s fine to begin as a DM. Any suggestions or tips? Best practices? Thanks in advance!!

Hey everyone! new to D&D here. what’s the best or easiest character to begin learning to play with? Or should I pick the one that most reflects my personality? thanks!

Do any of you outline, storyboard, create visual or mind maps, or plan each chapter before you write?

Do you have any best practices for writing? What is your thought process? What is the most efficient way to practice writing? I’ve heard from experienced writers that with time, you need less help with structure and can write freely without as much planning. Is that true?
