    Writing Random cultivation system garbo that I had plans for but am now too tired

    The concept is serious and could be cool but the presentation is hilarious.

    [Tutorial] For new users of Scribble Hub!

    I would suggest using the option to delay release, and have it put one up every four hours or so, maybe even starting today.

    Why don't you create a YouTube channel filled with fictional storytelling to reach a wider audience?

    A few people do. Only name I can think of is @Story_Marc but there are others.

    What's your reason for not writing LitRPG fiction?

    Oh, you mean we're not discussing Lithium-Ion Rocket Propelled Grenades? My bad!

    Do you like quests?

    1. Some people make quite a lot - a few even make a living wage with about three or four stories up at a time. Due to issues with my bank, I have yet to make anything there (LOOOONNNG story). Check with your bank before signing a contract, and make sure they are international and don't have a...

    A star wars/Indiana Jones theory

    But Indy was the dog The Jedi are based on the Chinese Monastic Traditions as shown in Wu Xia films (i.e. "chop-socky" movies). The Force is Lucas's bare-bones understanding of some of the theories behind Martial Arts (especially the Buddhist-derived arts, like Chan/Zen Buddhism, the "father"...

    First time actually writing a story, feedback and thoughts

    Depends on the direction you plan to take it. If it's just psychological horror (either there is no ghost and it's all in his mind, or the "ghost" is something like that rabbity-thing in Donnie Darko, where it is a demon of sorts ... maybe ... but not the real threat and maybe not even...

    Why do I hear that line in the voice of Leslie Nielson as the pilot on Airplane?

    Writing What is the biggest stake that you narrate in creating conflict?

    In one story, it's keeping a malevolent AI from escaping a game permanently. In another ... well, the stakes keep shifting. The initial goal is to have the heroes witness a prophecy (that they helped shape but are still somewhat controlled by) ... except then it becomes keeping a monster from...

    How much can you bend the meaning of a tag?

    The thing is, under the classic definition of "romance" you have Victorian smut, horror (i.e. "Gothic Romance"), the entire Arthurian cycle... Anything that was neither comedy nor tragedy was lumped under Romance (and, heck, some would consider anything written in a "romance language" - i.e. any...

    Beta Readers and AI

    One of my favorite stories about playing with AI came from a guy on Substack who used to be a professional film critic. He was teaching a writing class, and had an AI create a movie poster for a film that didn't exist but could have and had his class come up with plot synopsis. On a whim, he...

    Hello, we like money (Now taking story commissions)

    Are these prices in Canadian, United States, Australian or some other fictional Dollars? That is about the last price I was quoted (though that was "cents per word") so fair. How good are the fight scenes? Doubt they'd be worth it... Personally, I'd go +25$ per "mild" scene, +50$ per...

    Question for the ladies

    I think it's reversing the "construction workers hit on passing women" thing by reversing the genders - unless the MC and friend are also women, then it's just "gay women are dudes in drag"... Either way, I should not have replied, I suspect, as I am not a lady (though I did play one at the...

    Question for the ladies

    Is this first or third person? In first person, you can have the MC literally think that. "So this is how it feels when I do this to girls? Ick!" type stuff. If in third person, just emphasize how the situation went from the boys thinking "Hey, this is cool" to "this is kind of uncomfortable,"...

    Hello forum.scribblehub I am looking for a girlfriend

    Anyone seeking a "not mentally handicapped" lover on this site is probably barking way up the wrong forest, not just the wrong tree... :devilish:

    My story has no particular end-goal, I just wish to write/draw pure chaos. Do you mind that as a reader?

    If there is a story with a logical progression, it will be a little frustrating to hit that ending, but not a deal breaker. If the entire story is pure chaos, well, that suggests either the writer is "experimenting" ... or "experimenting ... with AI" and either of those can get real old real...

    College writers and studies.

    A friend of mine back in college had parents who were each on the board of directors at three different hospitals and working hours (one was a physical therapist, the other a plastic surgeon - never found out which was which) at two of those as well. When their first kid was in his second year...

    Maybe they used the group name, Gokudolls?

    Recommendations Stories where most of the casts matter

    Netflix dropped a series about a month back - their anime - that had characters who were far more memorable than their actual stories - Back Street Girls (about three male yakuza surgically transformed into female jpop idols). Really bizarre and, like I said, very forgettable plots but...
