    Thoughts about an offer?

    I'm having trouble as I've been given a paid publishing offer on another site. I would still be able to post it elsewhere as well as maintain the rights to publish the story physically. However, I'm pretty cautious about this since I've heard so many horror stories about people losing the rights...

    Did you...

    If you didn't have a role model, what kind of person did you think you needed to be better? Were you able to become that kind of person?I figured that I would make a poll about this out of general interest.

    Idiot Plot or Realistic Plot

    Have you ever written a story with the intention of making all the characters just dumb enough to slow the progression of the plot as whatever problem they face would be solved instantly if they were smarter? This is known as an Idiot Plot. The exact definition is "Any plot containing problems...

    Kudzu, the Invasive piece of crap

    Kudzu is a bastard of a parasite plant. This is just a rant about this plant. Kudzu, shown in this picture is an invasive vine species that I personally think is beautiful. However, no one can get rid of it. It has overtaken entire forests to make them look like this. Now, don't think that this...

    Specifically, I want to know if anyone else ever has a moment while writing where even after having a full outline that describes everything that is supposed to happen you connect some dots by complete accident, causing a sudden shift in perspective and realizing that something is wrong. For...

They disguise themselves in two ways; One type can change into a physical human form for an allotted amount of time which can be...

    What does it mean to be an adult?

    As the title asked, What does it mean to be an adult? Is it age that truly certifies you as an adult or is it based on a person's maturity after reaching a certain age? In most places, you are considered an adult at the age of 18 but some cultures say that you are not an adult until you meet...

    Time, Relativity, and the human psyche

    When I was a kid I loved the idea of time travel. Though what was so interesting was relativity and the theoretical physics that explained how it worked. After reading a lot about it I wondered if you could alter your own mental perception of time and use it to speed up or slow down your own...

    The ability to post videos from your computer in threads and profile posts without it being from an external source?

    I understand that this isn't really an important request and that it's probably pointless though I think it would be fun to add those here. I know that you can do that in the discord already but I still think it would be great.

    What I love and hate about the Isekai/portal fantasy genre. *RANT*

    The Isekai genre continues to grow in both the anime community and the literary community. However, I have a few complaints that many of you share but for some reason are still used all the time. I do have some complaints though that very few people seem to talk about. Now, I don't want to sound...

    What is your favorite era and geographic area that you like to write/read about in fiction?

    The title really explains the question. I'm just curious about what kind of cultures and eras everyone enjoys taking part in or using for reference. I'll start. I really find Old Celtic, Ancient Greek, Mthethwa Empire, and Imperial Roman eras/cultures to be fun and interesting.

    I've accidentally become a ghost story.

    At the overnight camp that I work and live at, I go for long walks at night and enjoy stargazing. I've done this every night since I started working here and never brought it up with my boss or my coworkers because I never had a reason to. For the past month, they have started to tell this story...

    I just had a terrible idea!

    A 1st person story that changes points of view every time a new character is introduced. When they bump into anyone who has already been introduced then it will return their point of view to that person. This continues until it all ties together for the finale.
