Humorously Thyself
"Clarice, why are you sitting there with a blank look on your face?" The homeroom teacher shouted at Clarice. Clarice slowly gazed at her teacher with disdain, "I hope a goblin eats her....or.... should I just send a love letter to her with the principal's name attached on it?" -Overlord_Venus (Master Chef Antarctica) ___________________________________________ Under drafting stages.

4.6
An intergalactic war occurs in the universe. A cowardly god who managed to escape the war chances upon Earth in his escape path. What happens next? The Earth faces an apocalypse, unlike anything humanity has ever encountered. Humans, cats, dogs...even trees, as all lifeforms evolve to gain supernatural abilities, will humans still reign at the top of the food chain? Not just living organisms, even electronic gadgets gain sentience and related supernatural abilities. Is that all? They also bury themselves into humans and act as your typical RPG style 'Systems'. Are they allies of humans or do they have some sort of hidden agenda? Watch as our seemingly normal MC tries to deal with all sorts of dangers in the new post-apocalyptic world. Would he be able to maintain his ego till the very end? Or would he get dominated by a System? Runner-up in the #32 writing contest: Systems

So, Humans Were GODS All Along?
4.8
The ‘Power of Creation’, a trait that manifested in the race that called themselves ‘Gods’ was neither an object nor some source of divine energy, but it was this very trait that made them seem invincible. All lives prospered under the Era of the Gods, resources were plenty, health conditions were at the very best, and life blossomed. All except the race called ‘Humans’. Humans were small, weak, had low lifespans and were almost at the very bottom of the power structure, food chain, etc. Their survival was difficult. Countless hardships, a millennium of preparation, and finally, a forbidden ritual. Humans obtained the ‘Power of Creation’ and became the ‘Gods’ themselves. Harnessing the ‘Power of Creation’, humans created various tools, technologies, medicines, etc and became the dominant race on Earth. 10,000 years had passed since then. Humans had entered the Silicon Age and geniuses sprouted like cabbages. Every day, new technologies were developed, medicines researched, weapons created and new frontiers of the vast space explored. Finally, on one fine day during our glorious era, humans finally exhausted the ‘Power of Creation’ that they stole from the Gods. How will humanity survive from here on? ________________________________ Joined the Writing Prompt Contest #80 Level Up.

iWizard: This chapter could be used to succinctly describe the entire novel as a whole. All forms of confrontation are realistic: weak and stupid opponents die first and it doesn't matter what is between their legs and/or how beautiful they are. Also, no poralization with evil villains and good heroes - every character is relatable, even Spectral Soul. One may speculate that FY will manage to steal Hei Fan's grotto heaven from the rank 8 geezer, but I think we all know that this novel's main 'unwritten rule' is that FY is literally never ever lucky. He gained some immortal Gu and some dao marks? Well, expect the rank 8 appearing in the next 2-3 chapters to make FY's life miserable again.

CyrahGamez: I was wondering if there is a discord server or some forum/thread to talk about this novel.
I would love to see the ideas people would come up with if they could design a monster.
I myself was thinking of a shadow monster pet which acts like a suit of armor or more specifically, a symbiote from marvel like VENOM.
I don't know the specifics yet, but something like that would be very useful in my opinion.Chrysalis · C342

PettyOfficer: There are like 20 reviews from two people giving this 5 stars and I have to put my foot down.
I’ve read up to chapter 18 and I want to blow my brains out. Wanna know why?
It’s not lacking chapters. It’s not the decent grammar or the general narrative style.
It’s the overuse of clichés, emphasis of “plans,” and useless characters. Also, the dreadful POV shifts.
For clichés, we got MC Mark, a “badass” anti-hero/hero mix. We got a random mother and daughter burden for escort. Then there’s the strong and uncooperative love interest with her friend. Oh, and I almost forgot! There’s the unnamed male employee as the servant.
Some bus is in an accident and then zombies come out from it. It’s the apocalypse and somehow, the zombies have hacks that allow them to bypass crowds and kill any good guy with a gun. No police or guards! No phone service, so you can’t call for help!
That means everyone is getting slaughtered! MC steps in to lead everyone to safety! Oh no! Someone needs help, so he goes to save them with his badass one-handed shotgunning skills! He got it from a zombie guard that happened to attack him!
But he can’t just save them without showing how all other guys are trash! A mom gets grabbed by dying man! How she is still alive when running from zombies with her daughter? Who cares! Love interest shows she can fight, but MC saves her because he must be better!
Oh? A rich fatty goes crazy and holds everyone hostage in his base? He locks out MC and kills someone with a gun? Guess it’s detour time for MC to go save them because they’re helpless without him! No need to try and reason with the fatty.
Don’t worry! It’s all according to “plan!” MC loots a place and makes the path secure. Oh, a detour to the detour? Oh, it’s time to save a new love interest? Oh, we have to get the hero a heroic entrance instead of assassinating the gangsters. We’ll have the MC talk to the Boss as he r*pes the girl because this is the “plan!”
What!? The Boss has a gun? No worries! MC knew and wanted to make sure by talking to the gangsters! He just wanted to get a better shot. What? He only shot off the Boss’s arm and kicked a gangster’s balls? What “plan” is this?
How will he survive now? Oh? It was instant KO? As expected of MC, the other gangsters run away since they luckily don’t have guns. Now the MC is the hero. Let’s have TWO chapters of FLASHBACKS to show this pampered and beautiful love interest having a hard time with her family, friends, and fiancé.
Don’t worry! Literally disarming the Boss was part of the plan! He’s bleeding out, but don’t worry! MC must have a moment with his love interest! Oh, the Boss died? Time for a new “plan!” The fleeing gangsters attracted the zombies away? As expected of the “plan!” They never could have lured them back! Even if they did, MC had “plans” for it!
Ignore that his people had to kill zombies attracted by his gunshot! Hey, that mom can come over here and clean up the love interest. That gangster Boss r*ped her all over just by himself! She’s coated in his slimy seed!
Great! We’re ready to move on! Ignore how the daughter keeps up. Man-servant has been carrying the injured mother the whole time!
Do you understand how tedious and discomforting that is? It’s a droll format. It relies on cliché encounters to build up a harem team because the author doesn’t want to have MC alone. We go back and forth between characters only so the MC is no longer the focus of the story.
It’s fractured but whole, like a fractured butt hole. Incomplete, but complete; empty, but full.Mutagen

FrozenSynapses: Author here shamelessly promoting his own book. Updates haven't been stable, and I am just getting started on the world's system and politic stuff. I do know that my grammar and sentence structure is good. Also, the story is developing slowly, but there's reasons to that...I believe I'm making the character's dynamic and full of personality so that you guys, the readers, will be able to guess how the character would react to certain events. Thanks for those who are sticking by, even with the slow release rate!!

FNU_LNU: You have taken a rather difficult task of writing a book that happened 30 years before you were born. Era is just too different from what you have lived. Without living through 70s, or detailed research on peoples lives, business and mentality it is extremely difficult to write good time travel/do over novel.
For example you probably want to rush and get seed money before october 1973 oil embargo so you can leverage it on stock markets to get large gains. Your starting point is middle income family (father professor and mother owner of a bookstore), basically a nobody in society. Bookstore should have contacts with several publishers, but that is usually with sales department, not actual owners or people who decide what books to publish. Large publishers usually wont process new books from noname authors fast even if book has potential of bestseller, unless someone decides to push it from inside the company (if you want fast money, it would be better to have aunt/uncle that works in large publishing company that could push the book). Otherwise you are left with small/middle publishers that would sooner publish a book from a newcomer, but you would be limited with sales channel. First print for newcomer author would be limited, and with only word of mouth recommendations getting to bestseller would take quite a while (year or two at minimum). That is why marketing the book through NY times, Washington post or similar newspaper should be critical for it to get to bestseller (maybe use convenient fathers friend from college). Also negotiating, signing contract, printing book and getting it to the stores would take a lot of time considering technology (remember no computers and internet). Also think that "Da Vinci Code" is wrong book to publish cause of conservatism at that time. It would just receive too heavy backlash.
Also if you want to flesh out world, you must keep in mind that this era is in cold war, there is constant fear of communism, people are tired of vietnam war, there is heavy racism (specially in south) and it is male oriented (business) society.
That is why research is important to flesh out the world, make business more believable and have decent character progression.Rebirth 1973
marjzach2012: This book is very good.Well composed and grammar is good.Though there were some few typos but it's very minimal. It caught my interest when the MC shrunk and became small.It reminded me of the movie "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids". The struggle described so real that made me thrilled and stunned at the same time.keep it up!hoping for more chapters then.
