Don’t let your memes be dreams Chapter 1: https://write.ellipsus.com/edit/cf843f5e-f819-43ea-b77e-bdecf6a642ba Chapter 2: https://write.ellipsus.com/edit/c9dace26-981a-4dae-8157-d5f238f2c9f0 Chapter 3: https://write.ellipsus.com/edit/6d5728a9-a651-4adf-85f6-61db76fd6f1a

1. Dreams - Every story I write is based on at least one nightmare I've had before. (I get lots and lots of nightmares, probably average around one a day.) 2. Ludicrous power - I like fantasy, and also I usually have magical powers in my dreams, so the protagonist gets to be OP too. They're...

Your name seems really familiar... oh, you're from SCP! I've read way too much of that in the past, some of your stuff included. I'm new here myself, but I've been reading for a while and I can at least say that paragraphs should be short enough to break up the text on a small mobile screen...

I feel like slow pacing is always going to be my greatest enemy, so let's see how quickly you stop with this. Chapter 1: https://write.ellipsus.com/edit/cf843f5e-f819-43ea-b77e-bdecf6a642ba Chapter 2: https://write.ellipsus.com/edit/c9dace26-981a-4dae-8157-d5f238f2c9f0 Chapter 3...

Usually I don’t put on any music. However, there is always random music constantly playing in my head, nonstop, all the time, if that counts.

Hello I am in need of both food and bag I recently rewrote the intro for my story (coincidentally, the first three chapters) in order to raise the stakes, since there were like no stakes in the original version. But now I worry it’s bloated and even slower. I haven’t posted this on SH yet since...

Maybe 2-3 hours for the first draft... and then 10 more hours of editing split up across multiple sessions :blob_cringe: I usually end up with multiple chapters in progress at the same time thanks to this.

I rarely use the em-dash; I learned about semicolons first.

The first time I tried writing was nearly a decade ago, with short horror stories. I was constantly stuck in head-empty-no-thoughts mode, and I never knew which words I was supposed to use to write the scenes in my head. Thankfully, almost a decade of no writing later, I have magically become...

If my MC didn't run through a specific random path through a labyrinth in a dream, the multiverse would eventually be consumed by an eldritch monstrosity. And then all the multiverse's alternate timelines would also get consumed by their own versions of said monstrosity.

I for one would appreciate the free proofreading and the comments for algorithm boosts.

Woops, I didn't realize copying was disabled, I'll have to fix that. Hmm, if the double-body thing is the most interesting part of the synopsis I might have to reword it to give more detail; right now it gets mentioned/planned in chapter 4, starts happening in chapter 9, and doesn't become...

It feels like every other chapter I write, I have to go back and change something in a previous chapter. One time I got the day of the week wrong, so I had to change a class demonstration into a private lab session. Another time I changed the name of a skill to sound cooler, but I kept on using...

I've been editing these endlessly for the past couple weeks, and need an excuse to do even more endless editing. Also haven't figured out how to fix the slow start in chapters 1-2... let's see how bad it is. Prologue (Will merge into chapter 1 when I finally post it in probably a year)...

It's somewhat lacking in formatting options, but other than that I'm satisfied. I get to write on both my computer and phone and everything stays synced, and it's not google.

I think it's specifically the middle paragraph of the synopsis. I might try to find a way to completely rewrite that later.

Deep POV theory is extremely helpful, thank you!

Does something like this sound better? "It’s odd that the dream changed him into not one, but two girls. And the newly-named Rayna and Lillian could do without having to play both sides in a conflict between order and chaos." Unfortunately I'm not sure what can be done about the narrative being...

It's kind of a weird situation where Rayna and Lillian each have their own personality but they both still share the same mind, so the definition of person becomes a little blurry. At first they don't even know they have any separation, but the dream makes them realize their differences, and the...

So I got the idea of waiting to finish writing the entire first book of my story before I start posting it publicly, so I can keep a regular schedule and minimize edits to already-posted chapters. But recently the chapter count's been climbing, and all of a sudden I realized that I don't want to...
