I'll touch this up a little in a drawing software and write a short story based off it :) Should I credit you as Sleds?

I simply ignore conventions that arent useful or dont fit the setting. Monsters exist to flesh out your world or to move the story forward. Demons, specifically, are such a general concept all I can tell you, is, the word means "evil monster" basically. They may be physical, spiritual, etc, but...

There are novels that focus on crunchy power progression for people who like that sort of stuff, but turns out not everyone likes those. On its own "getting stronger" is a trope thats been ridden to death 10 times over. Why does the mc have to get more powerful constantly? It makes sense in...

These days I try to think about the rhythm of my writing and dialogue. Every irl person has a kind of tempo and tune to their speech, regardless of stuff like accent, word choice, education level etc. It also helps to imagine the voice and face of the speaker when youre writing dialogue. John...

In my previous post I asked the community what kinds of stories they would like to see. Out of the responses I've seen, I managed to distill these answers: 1 - non-humanoid or otherwise messed up protagonist (a monster, war machine, monke, etc), but done in a way where it actually matters story...

In the original concept, its like remote controlled drones, no pilot involved. The person controlling it would enter a sarcophagus-like contraption to project their consciousness into the mech through the boundary between worlds. So its more like a sci fi version of possession. I often find...

believe it or not I had a bunch of ideas similar to the first one. Though it was more along the lines of inter-dimensional colonialism + possession. A setting where humans discovered inter-dimensional travel first and these giant super empires balooned exponentially until conquering otherworlds...

I often read amateur novels on ScribbleHub and translated LNs and WNs and get ideas about whats missing from the usual roster of isekai, generic epic fantasy and really bizarre attempts at scifi. Something that I'd love to read but dont want to, can't, or don't have time to write. I have a bit...

HEAVILY wip reference picture for future novel illustrations Its a giant (something like 8ft+) bioweapon created using an artefact from the bowels of the earth enough humanoids were used to produce this specific being that it looks and thinks like a guy

As people grow up and their concerns change, what they care to write about will naturally change with that. I wouldn't say its the same as growing out of something per say, but its true. Someone who's over 30 is unlikely to write "finding yourself in the world" type narratives because by the...

If a character has experienced approximately 100 years of life, but their current physical vessel was created days or weeks ago, does nsfw content involving that character violate ScribbleHub's content policy? This isn't a 500 year old loli situation, keep in mind. This is something like an...

THESE ARE THE QUESTIONS WE'VE GOTTA BE ASKING

Powerful message And guess what, its on the menu for the current project precisely because stuff like that is popular on Scribblehub

imagine having readers that comment on your work and give *any* input, couldn't be me ?

Its easy to make a videogamey system that would actually make for an AWFUL game If you choose to have more number crunching, its always better to refer to real life games like final fantasy, dragon quest, or even stuff like souls likes or tabletop games for stats, scaling, leveling and...

Way to take the L gracefully ahahahahahha When I was just starting out, I think I was still in high school, and I straight up deleted my account after the troll reviews rolled in. You know the kind, with the devious 1 star rating and "this blows" said 10 different ways instead of useful criticism

How to write good characters: - set out one specific thing the character wants, like a current or life goal, and something they need but dont necessarily know about - if you're not sure about their personality, pick a character you like from a different story and adapt the most exaggerated...

I've been writing on and off for the better part of 8 years under different profiles, and a problem I constantly run into is readers losing interest in a story and tuning out. This kind of issue affected something like 3 out of 5 fictions I wrote, and I still don't know why that is. What's...

I simply accept it and suffer LMAO You're gonna have this problem no matter what you write and how much experience you have. Figure out if you're able to keep writing the story and if you enjoy it (not necessarily the process of writing it, that's a chore a lot of the time). Then you'll know if...

I'm sure it would be way less of a shock than people imagine Every parent just comes to terms with their kid's deviancy once they're, maybe, 16-22, depending on how puritanical the parents are. To actively want to share that kind of stuff is insane tho, nobody wants to know the dirty details of...
