in another kind of venting, a self vent, we present this cromulent meme: (readers, this one is not for you)

We got our first negative comment today. It didn't really vex us much, because it was typical low hanging fruit of bigotry. But, we wanted to brag about it, and go through the motions of venting somewhere, and this seems like the thread for it. Like, sir. Our story is tagged as "transgender"...

Oh. This actually happened to us in real life. Or seemed to. For most of our life we perceived ourselves as one person. And then, around the age of 40, we started to split off and make our individual selves known. Still with one body, of course, but psychologically we were quite separate. And...

Yep. Got one waiting in the wings because of it. It's named. It has the introduction written out, and a chapter by chapter outline. And it's been two years at least since writing that much out.

We're plural, and we write our stories like a TTRPG compaign run off the cuff. We don’t actually know the end until somewhere in the middle. This works really well for certain kinds of stories that are NOT murder mysteries. But we still seemto get stuck at least once per book. When that...

Cooked a pretzel bun cheeseburger and ate it. Updated account with tip information so people can tip. Burped. Just now.

We are Ktletaccete. Close enough to dragons to be called dragons by humanity. Each one of us was born to an Art, which none of the others have, that we practice for the rest of our existence - though, of course, we are full people and can learn many other things as well. It's like an autistic...

Since we are dragons, we've been studying our own history since around 1984. If anybody would like a hypeshare/infodump about what dragons are, literarily, and how we've evolved over time, we've got a pretty lengthy one that can get you into a deep dive into the mythological origins and lore...

What is the coolest thing that could happen next? alternating with: What is the most fitting devastating thing that could happen next? Each one followed by: How would our characters react to this? The results were that sometimes the cool thing or the devastating thing would come from the...

It's not the Y chromosome. It's not testosterone (though, hormones can have an emotional affect on different people in different ways). It's not even gendered, except in the way that our various cultures expect things of different genders and condition people of different genders to handle their...

A lot of outright bigotry in this thread. Also, speaking of hitting your children as if child abuse is OK and good is reprehensible and not admirable. Finally: 11. Threads and posts related to religion and politics are banned. The topic is too volatile. This is ALL politics at this point...

In our fictional mythology, there is a story for every single thing (though we haven't written many of them down, it's just implied). There is a deity that is the Artist for making each thing that is ever made. We just happened to have named the Artist of Giving Orgasms, though. Mejekewe There...

Our username is our system name. We use it in other places around the internet, so you can find our work that way. We also answer to it in person. It feels better than using any one of our individual names most of the time, and if we created a new username our system would just create a system...

Hi! We are the Inmara (they/them - plural), a rather large plural system. You don't have to include "the" when you refer to us, but we like it. (examples of usage: as a form of address - "hello, Inmara"; third person - "that's the Inmara over there") Each one of us has a different special...

Our very first motivation to make any art at all, beyond just doodling for doodling sake, was to draw ourselves as we wished we could be. We didn't fully consciously realize it, but every character we drew, even when form a book we read, was someone in our system wishing to be seen, and wishing...

Our story started out as a webcomic, so we have a few pieces of art of the main characters. It didn't get very far before we decided that we couldn't keep up with the art and making it a novel first would work better. In the last image here, the sphere with the sparks coming out of it is...

We've just started publishing here the first book of the Sunspot Chronicles, Systems' Out! It's been up on our own website for about a year now, but we're in the middle of editing it, so each page that gets posted here will be the edited version, just before we update it on our site. The...

Just poking around and learning the customs of this community before sharing our work. We were pointed this way by a friend. Seems like a nice place!
