My apologies if this has already been discussed (I tried searching the thread), but are there any theories as to how your choices regarding Ian's book will impact the story? It's more or less the only choices that currently aren't affecting the game in any way, as far as I can tell.
Is it possible that you're actually making choices for Ian's own story in the future? That choosing your protagonist and antogonist type, deciding if it will be about revenge/treason/doom and so on is in some way deciding parts of the character's path further on in the game? Maybe it's a bit far fetched, buy I think that would be funny.

EvaKiss answered that in her last Q&A.
The book mini-game tests Ian to find good combinations of plot devices that work with the
genre he's choosing to write. The resulting book's quality will depend on that!
So i shouldn't chose a Sci-Fi with a Talking Pet Mentor and a True Evil Villian then ?
Guess Ian won't be the next Timothy Zahn.

Ah, thanks. I missed that.
I'll scrap the plan of making the whackiest combinations possible, then. :)

Hey guys,this game is amazing piece of art. I want to ask if there are any other games similar to this you can recommend me. It would be really great if the game has male protoganist like IAN in this game. Thank you to all and the creator of this game as well.Keep up the amazing content EvaKiss :)

Yes, the combinations will probably decide how well Ian's book does.

For the time being it is mostly speculative, but you can get feedback from the game for at least the first 2 choices if Ian goes on the date with Lena and Holly instead of hanging out with Alison, these are the winning combinations:

Damn... I picked Scifi/Vengeance/Moralistic antagonist/ antihero mentor/ betrayal . Basically a Dark scifi akin to frank herbert Dune series. This cannot be considered bad right?

For now it is just speculative, but I doubt EvaKiss would make the best book result be tied to arbitrary "perfect" choices, some creativity with the combinations is probably fine. Here's the exact dialogue from the game's code if you're interested:
