Chasing sun, napping softly:
Cultivation/Xianxia genre.
Some parts will poke at the ridiculousness of the Xianxia gerne.
We follow the life of a magical fox monster, who doesn't like how the cultivation world works. Said beast seems to have more knowledge than is usual for normal magical beasts.
In it's infinite wisdom it decided to search for the main character of the cultivation world to have a cozy and safe place beside him.
Our fox will act as a "wise beast" to coast along on the main characters rise to greatness, all for peace, happiness and that amazing napping spot in the sun.
The challenges for myself with this story:
Writing in first person.
Comedic effect between talking vaguely and sounding wise.
The cost of heroism:
A story more centered around fights and mental health of hired mercenaries/heroes.
The world is infected with an eldritch corruption. Humans are trying their best to explore and clear out wilderness and the dungeons hiding in them to establish new cities.
Lords seek for hired hands to do the professional work.
Thanks to the setting, the story will show how awful pasts are the norm and how pragmatic people became thanks to that.
People exchange their sanity for riches, fame and gods acceptance. Interpersonal relationships change drastically and quickly.
The challenges for myself with this story:
Writing grim scenes/imparting a feeling of how grim the world is.
Writing fight scenes.
Showing different mental states.
Describing their influence on people during fights, walks or even after successful or failed campaigns.
Who will be the next powerhouse? :
A story about a gaming show, it's host Staan and the different participants.
Stereotype characters, stereotype backstories, silly challenges and quizzes.
The winner of those challenges gets powerups for their power system.
Be it magic, ki, psychic power or anything else imaginable and unimaginable to reach the power of gods.
The challenges for myself with this story:
A softer tone for storytelling.
Making the reader smile and enjoy themselves.
A different try at slice of life story.
I was left behind on earth as my family conquered another world and enjoys riches, but that's okey because I got a cheat too! :
Stereotypical Isekai story parody twisted into an Urban Fantasy story.
The challenges for myself with this story:
Writing over the top and overdramatic scenarios/scenes
Writing in first person.
Walking into stereotypical scenarios and making them more dramatic/giving them a twist.
Different type of humor.
