    Chain Story

    The wind blew through gaps in the walls, lightning flashed thru the cracked windows, and thunder rattled the entire house down to its foundations.

    What do you think about people who talk to themselves

    I used to talk to myself more. But nowadays I say stuff to myself when I remember I have to do something or I’ve forgotten something or I’m an idiot for forgetting something. So it’s not really weird talking to yourself as long as you don’t argue with yourself aloud like you have two minds...

    How many chapters does it take on average to start gaining steady writer?

    There are a lot of novels on this site that petter out before chapter 50 so unless a title or cover catches my eye I won’t read it until it reaches closer to 50 because it’s kinda disheartening to read a story you think has potential and then the author abruptly stops writing or gets burned out...

    Does no one use footnotes?

    Footnotes are more academic where this is casual writing. Not a ton of modern authors use footnotes unless its for more detailed explanations about stuff on the page. Most writers nowadays just explain everything that doesn't make sense so there's no need.

    I'm A New Author Plz Helpp

    Do consistent chapter posts. Not large ones just one a day or every two days. When you get a following you can extend that longer as you have a large regular fanbase to read it, recommend it, and rate it which makes it pop up higher on tag leaderboards which makes more people see and so on and...

    How can I put my story in people's search results?

    You need a decent cover you don't need to hire an artist to make one but at the very least a good gpt or find something on google images.

    What unconventional meat have you consumed at least once in your life?

    Kangaroo. Went to Australia. Had in stores like beef and chicken. A bit chewy but not bad might have been improperly cooked. Also had Gator in Florida and yes it's a joke but it does taste like chicken but like the chicken from the sea. Had bison burgers cause a friend's dad went hunting in...

    Personally, how do you like to use prologues?

    Depends on the writing and the story. A good author makes a prologue an intriguing window into the world they are crafting. A bad one can put in too much making it dense and uninteresting for people who might like the story or they can put in too little or something wildly out of context that...

    Your single favorite SH story?

    I have read/am reading and enjoyed My Dungeon Life, but I'm honestly surprised it's someone's favorite. Honestly, the first story(ies) that come to mind when I think favorite story on Scribblehub is Dream Engine: DC comics by Galen. He stopped writing it two years ago because burnout but I...

    Are there any successful SLICE OF LIFE stories?

    Absolutely. However success is dependent on more than your genre. If your plot tired and cliche and your characters are flat and wooden then it won’t matter if you’re writing slice of life or gothic horror you won’t have success. Also make sure to take a balancing act with fan feedback. You will...

    How Do Fuse Xianxia and Medieval Fantasy?

    Except Star Wars doesn't have wu-xia elements unless you count meditation which isn't xiaxian specific. The Force is "mystical" but has consistently referred to as an energy field that binds the galaxy and everyone in it together so again fantasy maybe. And while the midiclorian thing might be...

    I have a Question

    Character driven all the way. Plot is absolutely important it is definitely as if not more important then characterization of your cast but a good plot can only go so far if you're characters are shit then people will lose interest in the story and stop reading whereas the plot can be a little...

    How Do Fuse Xianxia and Medieval Fantasy?

    You can’t they are separate genres for a reason. Xianxia has very specific criteria that don’t allow for mixing with a very different Europeanesque medieval fantasy. As people say in the thing mixing it is called xuanhuan and it can be done but if you’re talking about some seamless integration...

    Do You Know Anyone with the Most Generic Name Ever?

    I once met a John Young. Not exactly John Smith but Young is a pretty common name in the US and John is a stereotype for a reason. So is Matt Luke and Mark. Bible names what can I say.

    How can I impress my crush?

    If she’s interested you don’t need to impress her. If you like her ask her out. If she doesn’t then you find out get your heart broken and then move on. Get the nerve up man.

    Original Idioms

    Okay these idioms are bad. I mean seriously bad you get the basic idea but are laboring under a misconception. Idioms often have more meaning than at face value and often have endings that don’t make sense outside of context but idioms are also based on common cultural norms, experiences, and...
