One of the things that's always stopped me from writing a litrpg is that I can never come up with an in-universe way to justify the system being there. I don't like the "literally takes place inside a video game" approach, but just straight up implementing video game mechanics into reality...

...and other fun ways you can torture yourself! Seriously, though. I'm writing the sequel to I Applied for a Delivery Job and Got Turned Into A Flying Reindeer?! so I won't have to scramble to get it written and published in December like last year. This time, I decided I would make Mari Lwyd...

What are some tropes you know are bad, or at least overused, but you love to read or write about them anyway? I love dark lord villains, but only when they're done right. The thing about dark lords is that they usually don't make actual physical appearances in the story much, if at all. They're...

I had a thought today while working on my WIP. Road to Olympus has nine main characters so far, and I'm probably going to add even more eventually. The way I've been writing it, the POV character changes between chapters, occasionally sticking with the same character through multiple chapters if...

On a scale of 1 to 10, how much does Scribble Hub like superhero stories?

I'm taking a break from Road to Olympus to work on the third book in the Henry Rider: Clown Hunter series. I haven't gotten to it yet, but I think I have the best joke I've ever come up planned for a later chapter, when Henry has to fight a giant sea monster called Dadgum the Y'alldritch Horror...

I'm writing the third book in the Henry Rider series, and I need help with a joke. Henry and her friends are being given a tour of a vault of potentially world-ending items and weapons. One of them is a pitcher that dispenses an infinite amount of iced tea. It's delicious, but it's caused...

My WIP Road to Olympus is about a massive battle royale tournament that happens every ten years, with the winner ascending to godhood. But I'm not sure what the best way to start it would be. A lot of the story, and several of the characters' motivations, come from how the final battle in the...

You know that feeling when you spend hours trying to write, but you just can't get into the right brainspace, but you force yourself to do it anyway even though every single word feels wrong, and when you finally call it quits you know you're just going to delete it all and start over tomorrow...

Has anyone ever noticed that the Scribble Hub logo kinda looks like Trogdor?

I've said for a while, people love being friends with artists but hate being friends with writers. That's because it only takes a few seconds to appreciate a piece of artwork, whereas reading a story (even a short one) is a time commitment. I can't tell you how many times someone I know has...

Warning: stupidly long post incoming I've been working really hard on my WIP, Road to Olympus, lately. In the past three months, I've written about 61,000 words for it. It's nowhere near ready to be released, but I'm hoping I can at least get some feedback on the general idea behind the book...

Topic. Henry's biggest flaw is her imposter syndrome. She's strong and a great fighter, especially for her age, and she can think on her feet and improvise like a master. But she's also a Blue, the lowest and weakest class in klaon society. On top of that, a brain injury from when she was a...

And how long are those chapters? Right now I'm posting a chapter every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, but those books are all already finished so I'm not at risk of running out of chapters before the book ends. While I'm doing that, I'm working on my WIP, Road to Olympus, and I'm trying to...

I've only been on this site for about a week. In that time I've uploaded 12 chapters to my story, with new ones going up every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. So far that story has 107 views and one five star rating. Obviously this isn't where I want things to stay, but considering how long I've...

In really hoping my WIP, Road to Olympus, turns out to be my big break in the world of webfiction. If so, I'm planning to monetize it the usual way, by offering advance chapters on PayPal. But one unique idea I had that I really like is patreon cameos. RTO is about a massive battle royale...

I've always been fascinated by shows like Yugioh that use a game with established rules and various strategies and playstyles that the audience can understand as their means of conflict. I've always wanted to write one of my own, but I'm almost convinced they it can't be done in a text-based...

What magic system (not made by you) is your favorite? I like allomancy from Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn. I'm an unashamed Fanderson in general, but I think allomancy strikes the best balance between being versatile enough that there's not much you can't do with it, and limited enough that you...

HENRY RIDER: CLOWN HUNTER All that stands between mankind and absolute chaos is Henry Rider. We're doomed. Life isn’t easy for Henrietta “Henry” Rider. Born into the lowest class of klaon society, collecting enough laughter to keep her alive is a daily struggle. The only upside is that she...

I've always thought it was funny that if you ask Chatgpt a question it doesn't know the answer to, it'll straight up lie to you. Tell it to give you a summary of one of your books, then post the results here. Was it accurate? Henry Rider: Clown Hunter: This is almost 100% wrong. Especially the...
