    Hello everyone!!

    Having a direct link either in the post or your signature line makes it easier for people to find stuff, especially stuff that has gone live but, for whatever reason, is not available through a search (I had two stories I had to get manually search-enabled in the past).

    Forgotten Cartoon Memories?

    Heard of that one but never saw it (much like, on, Biker Mice From Mars, MASK or a few others). Ones from that general era I do recall: The Bionic Six. Inhumanoids (one of THE darkest "children's" cartoons ever released in the US) Centurions An older one that I've seen exactly one episode of...

    Forgotten Cartoon Memories?

    Well, one of them DID - but he used it to escape his world and make ours more like it... Though the biggest failing, for me, was there was exactly one time the hero seemed to be even challenged, let alone threatened - when the villains somehow (seriously - how did Luten Plunder NOT just kill the...

    Chain Story

    But after the first dead thing crawled from its grave, another followed... and another... and they kept coming, until a distant, divine voice cried: "You IDIOT. Never cast that spell while listening to Oingo Boingo's 'Dead Man's Party' - have I taught you NOTHING? Last time I buy an apprentice...

    Forgotten Cartoon Memories?

    Ah, they were early afternoon shows in my market. Replaced by reruns of Davey Crockett (which led to me changing the channel and discovering Lost in Space). Never thought about it but you may be right The bad guys were the show's biggest problem - only two had even remotely plausible...

    Forgotten Cartoon Memories?

    My fondest early memories of cartoons were Kimba the White Lion and Speed Racer (watched in black and white... usually grainy, snow-filled black and white). Most of the truly great cartoons came out a generation before I did so I saw them in reruns - Woody Woodpecker, Underdog, Rocky and...

    To readers of harem web novels.

    Most of those videos I've seen might be cute if only a minute or two long, but stretch out to five, eight, even ten minutes, where it goes from "kind of interesting" to "frustrating" to "sheer torture, I'm fast forwarding or just moving away from this crap..."

    Chain Story

    "Of course I have brain damage, you numkopfs! I shot myself in the head, didn't I? And why do I remember that but ... where am I?"

    Resolved Account Ban Appeal- would like clarification

    Sounds like you were a potential scammer victim (that "Let's move somewhere that the admins won't boot me from when I take you for all your money" thing - Instagram, Discord, WhatsApp, etc. is a classic scammer tactic) and the bot that was supposed to autoban the scammer also autobans the target. s

    Recommendations Looking for some introverts

    Wow - seems like that would be a common theme, but the only story I remember this happening in was Dean Koontz's "Watchers" - a golden retriever with exceptional intelligence brings the two introverts together... (which is kind of his "thing" - a damaged man with a dark past, an otherwise strong...

    Horror Premise: Schizoid Goes Psycho

    The most recent twist on this was the story where a group of people break into the house of a rich doctor to kidnap his daughter, and trigger the security locking themselves in with the girl ... who also happens to be a vampire. There were a lot of movies with this theme right at the end of the...

    To readers of harem web novels.

    I started writing one but only got to CH 5 before the stuff with PocketFM started, and, as they would never accept that (not exactly reverse harem as the MC was two people who died and a goddess restored them to life with what she considered the best parts of each - mostly the guy's mind and the...

    Exposition - How much is too much/too little

    Well, he had to describe the bowl he was using so clearly that you could reach out and FEEL it, let you know how the room smelled, what was going on out side... and still only give you one or two details about how the character looked. And the next chapter would start to describe his clothes...

    Chain Story

    Wait... no, he had it ... ugh... not THAT ... he cried out in despair: "No! Not 'Shave and a haircut, 2 bits'! ANYTHING but THAT!"

    What is the premise of your story in a prompt that readers can understand your story?

    Ryuk is far from neutral (especially in the live action version, where he shows some active malice at times) - he actively encourages Light to use his book and gets much amusement from what the boy accomplishes. Have five stories (three active here, two on PocketFM) so this could take some time...

    Failure to identify with the main character?

    Yes. I usually do identify with A character but not always the MAIN one. The only fiction book I could not identify with any character in (because the author put too many levels of separation by making the reader a part of the story, but as a literal intangible character who just observes...

    What is and isn't wish fulfillment?

    But that would not only be wish-fulfillment but IMPLAUSIBLE wish-fulfillment... :biggrin_s:

    Concept Idea- Trinity Syndrome

    Ran a Champions campaign like this kind of - the "trinity" character was told he would have the potential to destroy all of creation, so tried to murder his mother before he was born. Instead of creating a parodox, he discovered the existence of multiple realities and became obsessed with...
