    Does anyone else have a unique saying or catchphrase they often say?

    Whenever I finish explaining something, I almost always end it with: “I’m just saying.” ? It’s kind of my personal little stamp on a sentence when I’m done making my point. And here on ScribbleHub, I’ve also gotten into the habit of signing my forum posts with a yellow heart, sort of like my...

    Writing vs. Editing

    I normally edit as I go. If I leave things messy, with bad grammar or whole sentences that dont make sense, then when I come back later I get super confused about what I was even trying to write. So I try to clean it up a bit while I’m writing. But I definitely still miss a lot of mistakes...

    If you could bring any anime to real life, which one would you chose?

    I’d pick Pokemon and Sword Art Online. Sword Art Online would be amazing if it worked more like RuneScape, a medieval fantasy world you can actually live in. Of course, I’d want it without the “if you die in the game, you die in real life” drawback. Just give me the immersive world, the skills...

    New Scammer Tactic Dropped!

    Damn, you’ve got way more patience than me. I wouldn’t have even made it as far as getting on Discord with them, I’d have noped out the second they asked to chat off-site.

    As an author, how do you feel when you reread your novels?

    Honestly, when I reread my stuff, I usually end up thinking, “Hmm… I could’ve done that part better.” That’s why I don’t do it too often, otherwise, I start obsessing over tiny details and trying to perfect things that don’t really need it. I’d rather spend that energy on writing a new chapter...

    Can a story end with mysteries not cleared up

    If you leave it open-ended, you’re also leaving yourself the perfect opportunity to make a sequel or expand on the world later. I think it’s always a good idea to keep certain plot threads or lines a little open, it gives you room to add more detail, explore unanswered questions, or even...

    New Scammer Tactic Dropped!

    I just got my very first scammer sliding into my private messages. ? I think this means my book has officially “made it,” I mean, you’ve got to be doing something right if even the scammers are taking notice, right? ? Funny thing is, I actually ran into quite a few of these art bots/scammers...

    The Butler Just Got Nerfed

    I mostly use ChatGPT just to keep my story outline in one spot. I’ll dump all my ideas and details in there, and then if I forget a character name, a system I made, or some random bit of lore, I can just ask it to bring it back up and refresh me. It’s more like my searchable notepad AI assistant...

    Hey,New author

    For me, the difference between a healthy dark romance and an unhealthy one comes down to whether the relationship ultimately helps the characters grow or just drags them deeper into destruction. For example, in my story Cursed Destiny, the main characters, Leonardo and Silveral, have a strained...

    Does anyone like epic fantasy?

    I love to write epic fantasy, and both of the stories I’m currently working on, Cursed Destiny and Soul Circuit, fall right into that category. Big worlds, high stakes, complex systems, and sprawling casts. ? my stories aren’t really the classic hero’s journey tho. Sometimes things get messy...

    I'm a new writer, and I'd appreciate some feedbacks on my story.

    I’m not totally sure if Grammarly works well with different languages, I think it’s mainly focused on english, but I’m sure there are some settings or alternatives out there that help with bilingual writing. I grew up in a household where I was learning two languages at once, and even now there...

    I'm a new writer, and I'd appreciate some feedbacks on my story.

    If you’re worried about technical stuff like grammar, spelling, or sentence flow, I definitely recommend using Grammarly. I use it too, and it’s been super helpful for catching small mistakes and making sure everything reads smoothly. Most of us are writing in our own echo chambers, so there...

    I'll review first chapters... ?

    Just wanted to give a big thank you for the incredibly thoughtful and generous A- review on Cursed Destiny! ? I’m really grateful you took the time to not only read both the prologue and Chapter 1, but also to share your thoughts so clearly and kindly, both privately and now publicly! Your...

    No worries at all, take your time. I wasn’t expecting a response today or anything like that. I really appreciate you being willing to read it at all, so whenever you get around to it is totally fine with me. ?

    As a writer, what do you feel your greatest strengths and weaknesses are?

    My greatest strength is writing detailed environments, I love immersing readers in a scene through visuals, atmosphere, and mood. I tend to lean into that "show dont tell" approach, so the world kind of speaks for itself. My greatest weakness is definitely dialogue. I often use the environment...
