    Genres Targeting a Certain Audience

    Because of this: https://forum.scribblehub.com/threads/shounen-mature-or-adult.1417/ I realized that some terms like Shounen, Shoujo, Josei, etc might put off certain potential writers since those terms are more for Asian readers/writers. Personally I don't mind. I grew up reading manga and...

    Writing Warning: A bit Macabre

    Anybody here knows how quick it is to burn a body with blue flame? I'm being chunni about a character with her fire abilities and want her to have blue fire instead of red. Problem is, it feels awkward leaving this question in reddits for science and firefighters. When I tried googling it, all I...

    Writing Help Regarding Trauma

    A character of mine gets kidnapped, abused (not sexually), and drugged. The problem is, I don't know quite how to go about giving her traumas after getting rescued from something like that. I've been thinking of giving her certain fears but it's not working well. Doesn't seem very realistic or...

    Writing Animals in Fantasy

    Would it be better to name animals differently or can there still be cats, lions, dogs, wolves, etc? Or, am I being too strict on myself?

    Early Resolutions for 2020 (A troll thread)

    If you want to be a troll, go ahead. Just thought I'd start early with a New Year's resolution thread. Just a disclaimer, I always fail my resolutions but, who cares? If you want to seriously share your 2020 resolutions, go ahead! If you want to share something vague, have at it! Might as well...

    Seasonal Food!!!!!

    It's Christmas soon and I was wondering what it's like in your part of the world. What types of food do you have to celebrate the holiday (if you do so anyway). Do you have dinner (meal) traditions? In my country, we have what we call the Nochebuena. This tradition has Spanish origins and it...

    World Hopping Genre

    For starters, I find this genre fascinating. So much so that someday, I hope I'll be able to write a version of my own. I've read a few and the potential of writing short arcs with different genres and complications sound so fun. Restarting with a different plot seems refreshing somehow. For...

    Show me This...!

    Rules 1. Person A asks to see a certain picture. 2. Person B posts said picture and asks to see another picture. The request doesn't have to be specific. Actually, it would be nice if you weren't so specific so it's not hard to find certain images. Lastly, SFW only!! Whoever wants to...

    Movies in Alphabetical Order

    I was looking around and saw a post like this. Basically, we post movies in alphabetical order. One entry per post. For example: Person 1: Akira Person 2: Beauty and the Beast Person 3: Carrie NOTE: Articles are ignored. So, if you picked, 'The Cabin in the Woods' for the letter C, the...

    You wrote something? Great! Now, come and brag about it!

    Purpose Because you're a good, responsible author, you deserve to have some bragging rights. This thread is for those quiet introverts who have their closet extroverts waiting for their turn to shout out loud! Or, you know, just for those who managed to do some writing done and want to show how...

    Regarding Feedback Threads?

    Would it be too much to request a format for these things? Something like: Title: Genre(s): Tag(s): Working summary: Warning (if any): Requests: (to take note of grammar, dialogue, pacing, beta reader, etc.)

    Writing Help a Scatterbrained Author Out

    What do you do when your story has a lot of information? An example would be something like Chinese cultivation novels. There's cultivation levels, potions, sects, etc. - How do you list down stuff like that? Do you have a system? I'm the type who gets their attention span sway me too often than...

    Writing Tell Me About Your Villains

    Just as the title says. I'm currently trying to flesh out my big baddie and having a tough job doing it. I need me some inspiration. Does your story have a villain? Is it a person, is it themselves, or is it some vague idea that they're fighting against? How did you come up with your villain...

    Latest Chapter Discussion - original vs translated

    I've noticed that the LCD section of the forums at SH is quite dismal. Compared to NU, LCD isn't quite active here. What do you think the reason is? Is there a way to make LCD more active in the SH forums? Is reader traffic related to its inactivity? Sorry, in all honesty, I'm just bored. I've...

    Tag Dictionary Hover

    This goes in line with this post: https://forum.scribblehub.com/threads/tag-dictionary-list.925/#post-20744 I think it would be nice to have a hover function in SH where you can hover over tags shown in the story and a brief description of that tag will pop up. Something like this:

    Author Badge / Achievements?

    Dunno if this will be a motivating feature but I think it would be neat to have achievements for authors (maybe even readers) in SH. The types like, "5000 words,""10k words,""Completed Novel," achievements. Forgive me, I wish to expound but my brain is fried, I'm sleepy, and I'm at work doing...
