    A quick question about romance

    I'm in my fifties and prefer the fade to black as both a writer and a reader. There are at least three different levels of publishing with Amazon - one does sacrifice permanent rights, one gives a conditional thing and one bars you from selling it anywhere else, but not from sharing it. Had...

    Experiment If you decided to write my story what would you do

    The only change I would make would probably be to shift to third person omniscient with occasional jumps into the heads of the characters to highlight some of the humor more.

    When you comment

    It varies by the specific comment and my mood - but USUALLY I'm addressing the author.

    I’m writing a new novel for those who are interested.

    Unless there were multiple stories like this (quite possible for late 80s/early 90s TSR) I don't believe there was ever an actual court case, just threatened action. And I think it was when Weiss and Hickman left TSR that the saber rattling began (MWP claimed they had ownership of some of the...

    Hello Scribble Hub Community!

    Actually, it was a quote from the character voiced by John Astin in the animated series based loosely on "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes" but I like this answer better.

    Hello Scribble Hub Community!

    I'm not mad. Maybe a little angry but not mad.

    Writing Making MAGIC 2 - Writing Magical Battles

    IIRC the kid was the recently, sadly, departed Ernie Gygax (or Ernie was at the table and Luke was the "speaker") and the kids around the table were his brothers, sisters and some friends. There was also an ad I have only seen in scans, so don't know where it was published, that used E. G...

    Where's the line between magic and superpowers?

    For a few days I actually had mine changing "autocorrect" to "autocorrupt" before it ... well... corrected itself.

    Is there a way to prevent readers from giving bad ratings without a clear reason?

    Well, it is ... rather tight... :s_tongue:

    Where's the line between magic and superpowers?

    You mean Zatana (hot chick who casts spells by talking backwards), daughter of Zatara (stage magician who could occasionally wield magic but was basically Mandrake Light - minor illusions and master of sleight of hand and escapology - guy who taught Bruce Wayne when the stories were updated and...

    Is there a way to prevent readers from giving bad ratings without a clear reason?

    At one point (parodied brilliantly in The Tick), Clark had "super hypnosis" via his glasses. That was retconned out later as just too freakin' silly (The Tick convinced himself that he had a Hypnotic Tie), and it's back to "he disguises himself by slouching, subtle changes to his hair, and...

    Writing Making MAGIC 2 - Writing Magical Battles

    Which of the idiotic ads are you referring to? The one drawn by Jeff Dee? The one that showed three different, disconnected parts of what appeared to be an ongoing series? Or one of the two photographs using Gygax's kids and their friends, photographed by a TSR staffer? You probably are NOT...

    Should i continue the story?

    Do you like the story? Do you like writing it? If both answers are YES, continue it. If either is "no" then... use this thread to decide. If both are "no" then delete what you've written so far and move on.

    How would a fight between god's work.

    Mar-Vell (MARVEL's first Captain Marvel, but the third character with that name to see print) and the Cancerverse are Marvel not DC. Both companies have Death usually appear as a woman (a cute goth chick in Vertigo/DC, and a beautiful woman that the person she is manifesting to knows ... or the...

    How would a fight between god's work.

    The way the gods usually handle fights is ... through their worshippers. They may empower a few, manipulate some events to sic heroes on the other side, raise up monsters, etc. Going directly against each other tends to cause all sorts of problems that can reorder reality...

    If I ever do more than bits and pieces of feedback, like in this thread, feel free to pick any of my stories, but no rush. Psst: That link goes to the dashboard of the person who clicks on it. To reach your story I think A Place To Bloom | Scribble Hub works

    Webnovel Feedback Roasts For the Fearless

    Well, it wasn't (at least the few parts I visited in 2019/2020 - granted it was two different airports that I never left, and I was in a wheelchair the second time - and 2012 or thereabouts, when we were mostly in Anaheim) THAT bad when I was there. Very pretty place, except for the major...
