    I'm trying to do a Quest. Any advice?

    Ah, a quest! "Take this scroll and give to Aladar the Mage. Only he can cure me of this most fatal illness. Please, be quick. I do not think I will be able to hold on for much longer." Then takes half a year to get back.

    Why do some authors use present tense narration?

    Eh no, please don't do that. If you have past tense first person narration say: "This coffee sucks," I said. The present tense first person narration should be something like: Looking at him, my tongue acts faster than my brain telling him, "This coffee sucks." Past tense narration and...

    Why do some authors use present tense narration?

    It's actually quite normal to use present tense. The reason why it bugs is because you grew up with past tense narration. When you were a kid, your parents likely read you bedtime stories, your teachers probably read you fairytales and your grandpa probably told you his recollections of his...

    Chapter titles

    For the names, Ai-chan made some syllable-based name generator here https://forum.scribblehub.com/threads/author-tools.22/ As for your story title, just plan arcs for your story. Then work down from there. For example, maybe you got the 'reincarnation arc', 'first journey arc' and 'kingdom...

    Term Confusion

    Yes, it would be called stepmother. Source: Living in a society where polygamy is legal and acceptable. If the kid's mother died, the other mothers would still be considered as his stepmothers, though how he specifically call it may differ based on which culture you're adopting. Even in the same...

    Foolish human! How dare you ask god for a gift! Have you never heard the saying "Ask and you shall receive a smiting?"

    cliché love tropes

    Considering that everyone has childhood friends (Ai-chan doesn't know anyone who doesn't) and that sociopaths make up 10% of humans (and can become stalkers), this trope is not overused at all. In fact, it is underused! Everyone is using the same basic template. Branch out, slap a bitch, bite a...

    what if your transpod into a world of magic and no science and you are their creator and you can make more stuff?

    You get a mountain, you get a mountain, everyone gets a mountain! Oh, you don't want a mountain? Too bad! Another mountain for you! Now you can sleep under a mountain that is under another mountain! How luxurious. "God Is Generous", say it! Say it 100 times a day. If you miscount, start again...

    Can positivity be toxic?

    It is often said that the saddest people laugh the most. At some point, this would happen and it would not be by the person's free will. So instead of giving a fake smile, try to find good in the bad. In this case, we should live by the words of the great philosopher, Homer. Homer said, "It is...

    The night is gloomy, the moon hidden behind the dark clouds and the owls go, "Hoot... hooot... hoot!" And here I am, outside, with only my trusty heels and a facemask to brave this 1 kilometer stretch of road, naked.

    Scribbly Anniversary V2

    @Alverost Just wondering is this for single story is anthology with a central theme allowed? For example, Ai-chan has a Shit Anthology with all the stories in there sharing the central theme of 'shit', both literally and metaphorically. A few of the stories in there are connected but most...

    Ownership and exclusivity of stories in sites like wattpad, tapas, dreame, etc?

    Tapas can mostly be trusted. Trusted as in, they have a clause that could screw you over, just in case, but they don't use it. Webnovel has many clauses that could screw you over, and they abuse it as much as they want. For example, the clause 'has the right to repost or use your stories...

    Writing New guy here, and problems about my own story.

    Are you aware of the Japanese game of connecting syllables where you say a word and your friend take the last syllable of that word and say a word with that syllable as the first syllable of his word? It's actually a game that authors in Japan also use to develop their characters. What you do...

    How to cheat yourself into trending (no root)

    The opening post pissed Ai-chan off. :blobspearpeek: Now Ai-chan feels like reaaaaaaally teaching people how to cheese the system. It'd be like robbing banks, and getting away with it. Except you don't take money, you take attention. And there is a very very very small chance (70%-89%) that it...

    Appreciation for SH

    SH is still new, so it could still evolve to a more toxic direction in the future as toxic people come and become the new majority. There is already a few who seems to be acting that way but they're still the very small minority. Ai-chan will not give out names. If you're in the forum often, you...

    Finally burned out

    Don't worry about your grammar. Ai-chan is not a native speaker too (speaks only Malay, Japanese and Mandarin), and nobody gave a shit about Ai-chan's grammatical appropriations. Big words, yes! When Ai-chan started, Ai-chan's grammar was hugely worst than yours. Ai-chan blames that on the...
