My idea for this story came from one of my favorite songs. The song is called "Lipstick". Dan + Shay (one of my favorite "bands") wrote that song. "Falling For Her Lipstick" is based on that song.
I have had a lot of struggles with what I should put in each chapter. I know what overall events I want to happen in the book, but the smaller events are harder to think of and write.

Although I'm not done yet, I have enjoyed writing about the different events affecting the main character's love life. I am looking forward to writing with her new love interest. :)

My readers have said a couple things I could change, but to be honest, right now there haven't been many people who have read my story.
5
I have thought about making a side story with one of the other characters, but I'm not sure yet since I haven't finished this book yet.

I want readers to take away that even though sometimes life may be hard, it will get better. There may be a missed opportunity, but that could give room for a better opportunity in the future.

I would advise to give yourself the time you need to write and to plan. I would also advise to give yourself deadlines if you like having deadlines. Having deadlines has helped me a lot and is continuing to help me stay on track. Lastly, DON'T GIVE UP. I know it may be hard at first, but it will be worth it in the end.
I think she kind of does. I tried to make her more different because I was finding myself putting a lot of similarities. One of the similarities between my main character and I is our shyness. Another one is our love of Chocolate Chip shakes. :)

I think the first chapter could draw in new readers. Although the first chapter is short compared to the other chapters, other readers have called it heartbreaking and that they could feel what the main character had been feeling.

Not currently. I am currently still working on this story. I hope that I will create a new story after this one though.

Dah Ork Life!
What do you get when you put the mind and soul of a lazy weeb into the body of the most ferocious and savage species ever concieved by the mind of man? You get Dah Ork Life! Both Cunningly Brutal and Brutally Cunning, Felix strives to become the stronkest and killiest Ork that ever was, all the while struggling to find a proper balance between the wisdom of man and the ever encroaching fury and madness that permeates every aspect of Orkish life, all set in the most horrific and dystopian sci-fi fantasy universe ever dreamed up by the nightmares of man, the Warhammer 40k universe. Born in a spaceship poised directly for one of the Bastions of the crumbling Imperium of Man, the planet of Armaggedon, Felix must strive to both survive, and cope with the necessities that come with his second chance at life. And he has no intent to squander this second chance, even at the cost of a tarnished and dirtied soul.
8 143Flight of the Cosmic Phoenix
The galaxy is at war. Always has been, always will be. The methods may change, but the results are always the same. Harmony is not, and never will be, an option. Until his parents are killed and he's kidnapped, Xaleyp Vah'Aris had been living a normal enough life. Making matters worse, he is forced into an army he wants nothing to do with. Mixed in with all this are visions of syringes and knives, and a prophetic sword forged by the gods. Maybe Xaleyp is not so normal after all. Now, he battles shifting alliances -- and himself -- to keep those he cares about safe. The odds are stacked against Xaleyp when the largest empire in the galaxy wants him dead. How is he supposed to protect his friends when he's in constant danger himself? Follow Xaleyp Vah'Aris as he hunts for power around the galaxy, makes startling new friends, and faces enemies he never imagined. (Starts slow, then picks up in later chapters) (Updates planned for Friday, maybe more often if I feel like it. Previously posted as Interstellar Genesis/Phoenix Song)
8 208Archaic Princess
"The past should remain in the past. What do you think?" In the world of magic and technology, a lady found herself in an abandoned aircraft. She remembered nothing except her former humanity. With the body of an Arachna and the mind of a human, she was forced to side with the Arachna to survive. Gradually, she encountered fragments of her past and hints of her future. In the road paved with hope and disappointment, she stood against the world. To protect her significant, she had to. Will update every 3 days.
8 198Earth's Army In Another World
As the god's battleground starts to turn into anarchy with justice and prosperity disappearing and instead being replaced by pain and suffering, the goddess of Justice and Prosperity has to do something that no other god or goddess has done. Call upon the forces of a godless planet. She wanted the strongest, and got the strongest. She got armies from three separate countries, and has forced upon them a mission of no return. Literally. Like they can't return to earth unless they complete it. Without any governments, the armies are left to fend for themselves with a large amount of bullets, tanks, planes, and ships. This story will have a large amount of characterization and slice of life moments. I did an insane amount of research for this and poured so much time in, not just militarily, but other basic necessity things as well. Fights will be bloody, magic will be rampant, and the slice of life moments will just warm you to the core. (actual kingdom building)
8 172Medley of Fates Worse than Death
Rick wakes up in a world unknown to him. He doesn't know what exactly happened or why he is there, he just feels he's not from that world as if he had Dissociative amnesia. Soon after waking up, he gets attacked not once, not twice but three times in a single day. Our hero can know how strong enemies are thanks to a special ability of his, but the thing is... What good does it do to know just how weak you are compared to a deadly creature chasing you? This is a LitRPG Fantasy Adventure in which battles are won (or lost) with strategy and wits as our protagonists aren't necessarily the strongest... So if you enjoy more strategic battles I think you will love this story!About the chapters: I will post mostly 1,300 or so word chapters, I love weekly manga and feel like that pacing is similar to the one in a weekly serial chapter, hopefully, you enjoy these chunk-sized chapters :) I only do this for fun in my free time so I think I will probably post a chapter a week, but if my patreon ever gets busy I might put more time into my hobby xD If you feel like checking out some of the newest chapters, I have them over on my Patreon (Currently 5 chapters in advance): www.patreon.com/rija Extra info (Might get spoilery): As the story progresses I intend to add more strategy, politics and economics into the story, but it will still be mostly a LitRpg action-adventure. (Also if you had read my synopsis previously I changed it a bit because the elements I mentioned before in the synopsis won't come into play until much later into the story, and that's why I changed it.)
