    Which story tag immediately put you off a story?

    Ancient China, Wuxia, all those other commie eastern fantasy tags. Have never enjoyed an East Asian themed story.

    Unique weapons

    In one of my planned stories there was a cursed sword that screamed in pain incredibly loudly whenever you used it.

    Need some help with a town name.

    All the towns near are just named after towns in England. A lot only changed by adding the word New to the front. If you can't think of a name just do what us Americans do and steal one and put New infornt

    Free art thread

    Very cool idea. Just make sure you don’t burn yourself out. I’ve ’overdrawn’ before it’s been very detrimental to my motivation. Still if you want to draw something a bit different. Writing a sort of modern military fantasy story. Would be cool to see your take on a modern main battle tank. Not...

    Sanity check!

    Don’t worry it’s not that sad. I dropped out got my HiSET equivalency degree, and started college a year early. I got my associates in Aviation Science earlier this year, and now I’m going for my bachelors

    Sanity check!

    4 is false. I picked the username because I thought CarburetorThompson sounded like an old timey gangster name, and I had carburetors on my mind because I was taking private pilot ground school at the time, and huge section was dedicated to the functions of a carburetor and how to de-ice it A...

    Sanity check!

    What do you think about Stoicisms?

    All I’m saying is maybe if Marcus Aurelius spent less time thinking about thinking and more time raising his son, then the Roman Empire wouldn’t have fallen apart so fast. Just saying.

    Good & Interesting turns of phrase

    Anyone have any turns of phrase they’re particularly fond of? Personally my favorite is probably “Though it had never been said in so many words……” for describing an unwritten rule/common knowledge. I think it rolls off the tongue very well.

    What is happening to my account?

    It‘s probably in the approval process. Tony has to print the stories out and then ship them by mail to the review firm which is based out of Zagreb in Croatia. It’s a pretty lengthy process, so it may take a few hours.

    Where did the love go?

    Not everyone thinks like that. Especially new writers. If someone wants to make a career out of creative writing, it’s a good lesson to learn that what you want to make and what the market wants, are often very different.

    Where did the love go?

    I think people just want to be helpful. My best (and one of my only) stories is made entirely of unpopular tags, and as such is still under 50 views. In my opinion things like that are more demotivating than any forum post can be. Some people enjoy views and readers more than they enjoy writing...

    Matriarchy Vs. Patriarchy in world building.

    I always love fantasy settings that have matriarchal elf societies. Like the drow from forgotten realms, or night elves from world of Warcraft. Don’t know why I just like it better with elves.
