That actually came out? Saw some concept art and heard about some production delays and then nothing.

According to a free book on Publishing Serial Fiction, it originally focused on webtoons and comic books but was also starting to get into fiction two years ago, mostly translations of manga and manhwa. I did look into it before I came here, but the PayPal thing kept me from digging too far...

Darkseid represents the worst of human nature - he is a God of evil and treachery. Halloween is more about Death, really - at least the Irish roots line in the Samhain Fesc, or Feast of Samhain, the night the Lord of the Dead descends to Earth to find those dead spirits that have not moved on...

Swamp Thing?

I tried writing something like that. Not easy, since I've never experienced it. Just basically mentioned it in passing then dropped it, which is likely not realistic but...

Not at the start, but once the story gets going this hits sometimes. Though I do have some times when I open one story to work on and two or three other ones DEMAND my attention instead.

I think it's a solid idea but one with no real meaning as, in another thread, some people see the stars as a way to rate a story in solely technical terms (is grammar good? punctuation? structure?), some in purely emotional terms (did I like it? Do I like the author?), and others try to use...

So, the Alpha Complex of Paranoia? That was an old Role Playing Game (soon to be a board game as well, if I've been reading the announcements correctly) set after the apocalypse - all of humanity now lives in underground shelters called "Alpha Complex" - and yeah, one of the big conflicts (until...

Ah - you put a finger on why I couldn't make it through Chapter 1 right there. It felt rushed to me, like "OH, I have to put this out NOW." I think the current "first chapter" should be split into two or three small "chunks" - the first, expand the background a little, and either make it an...

I would go with any of the ones in the middle. The first one, though I LOVE the font, has the text kind of bleed into the background, and the last one has an odd, sterile feel that does not appeal to me, personally. Personally, I like the color scheme on the center one (#4) but the font on...

For almost two decades, my godfather said this - "I will never get married because why would I want to let some woman I no longer care about take away the house I built for myself..." Then his high school girlfriend wound up hospitalized because her husband beat her, and my godfather was her...

I'm probably unusual in that two of the three women I've been serious with knew I was a hobby writer when we met (and the other one pushed me into learning to write erotica). My RPG hobbies were tougher to reveal (except for the one I met through them) than my writing, to be honest, but as soon...

The biggest problem with a System I'm discovering myself - the longer the story gets the more important it is to have a separate "character sheet" for any characters who grow. Do not insert them in the story, just keep them to the side for reference, and pull up the relevant sections whenever...

If you really want to know, offer to exchange writing examples. Now one other reason to hide an identity is if there is some history that you are unaware of, but she is not - if maybe you commented on something she wrote somewhere. Or if she writes male GB fantasies or Boy on Boy stories and...

Ah - and here is where my comment about this being "just a fragment" becomes relevant; the first version conveys this better than the second. Both work, mind you, and the second is generally easier to read but the first shows the attitude you describe more effectively.

Wow - closest I've been was in an ongoing RPG campaign (Star Wars universe, old West End Games d6 version of the rules) where, after one adventure, a player came to me and asked if I had any plans for the world the middle chapter of a three-adventure story took place on, and I said "not really"...

Sounds like you are at the same point I am with mine. Toying with setting up some tiers and such but really still in the planning stage right now.

As long as I am alive, I PLAN to finish my stories. Now, if someone were to approach me with an idea for collaborating on something I have not finished, I might be open to that, but I would still want to have a hand in it as long as I have a hand to put into it. I would probably view it kind...

Any that have died, unless they come back as a zombie, then it's a wash. If they're alive, odds are they'd beat me.

Yeah, if I suspect that I would give a story less than three stars, I will probably stop before I finish the first, or definitely before completing the second chapter, unless I promised to read the whole thing or was being held at gun point (and the latter situation would probably remove a star...
