Some of you may be familiar with my intense opinions on modern romance manga. I admit that I am prone to crashing out over fake plastic love stories made for Japanese gooners. But believe me, at my core I love romances. That's because I love characters who bounce off each other in ways that are...

By virtue of living in a civilized society, we are fated to encounter weird bullshit. Said bullshit may come in the form of a person, an animal, a group, event, or some other form of bullshit. Sometimes we are only second-hand or third-hand witnesses to the bullshit, with no way of verifying its...

I had just (yes, within the last hour) found out about the Lyttle Lytton Contest and the now-defunct Buwler-Lytton contest it was based on, both awarding writers for their ability to write terrible, no good opening lines for a story. That gave me a fun idea to try it out in these forums, as...

Sometimes I wish there were more reactions on this forum. The ones available do not represent the full spectrum of human emotions. For example, sometimes I don't even want to reply to a post and just want to give it a dislike/thumbs down react. In this scenario, an angry react wouldn't suffice...

Look, we all have our snobbish side. Name one person who isn't super pedantic about at least one thing. I'm a super pedantic guy. Here's a list of things that I will go full-on nerd emoji about. Binomial nomenclature It's Genus species, guys. Come on. I sometimes see this shit on...

It always saddens me how much of human history is lost because our ancestors didn't lock in and invent writing sooner. I find myself grieving over the fact that we'll never conclusively know how early Homo sapiens and other human ancestors lived. What did they really think about their cave...

They say that the worst part about growing up is that no one asks you about your favorite dinosaur anymore, so I've created this space for everyone to heal their inner child. I'll start. This is Yi qi, a theropod from Jurassic China. Though they might look like a funky chicken at first...

Hi y'all, I'm coming at you with a short story I wrote in 2021 for a competition. It never ended up getting published anywhere, so I decided to just put it here. It's a post-apocalyptic zombie story with a bit of sibling love (not the Japanese type) about a woman and her younger brother just...

The universe is annihilated in an unpreventable catastrophe. What song plays as the credits roll?

Do you like to give lengthy and detailed descriptions of your character's appearance, or do you like to keep it short and simple, describing only certain parts? Do you prefer to dump the entirety of your description into one section, or do you spread the details out in different parts of the...

I'm not necessarily referring to clinical depression, but simply what has gotten you down in the dumps as of late? It could be a book, a game, a song, an event, whatever. Personally, I beat Red Dead Redemption 2 for the 2nd time a couple of weeks ago and the Red Dead Depression still hits hard...

Share the music that y'all have been listening to lately so I can silently judge check them out :s_wink: As for me, I've been entering my own emo phase at age 20 and I recently started listening to The Promise Ring. I especially like the song Nothing Feels Good off their album of the same name...

So yeah, here's my story Ghost Hunter Kumagawa. Got bored one day, so I decided to just post it here and see what happens. https://www.scribblehub.com/series/21582/ghost-hunter-kumagawa/ Would love to hear y'all feedback ? Thanks in advance!

As the title says, what brilliant invention do you have bubbling in your mind's cauldron? It could be something that makes life a lot more convenient, or it could be a cute little quirky product to sell at M*niso, or maybe it could just destroy the world. To start off, here's my idea that could...

Exactly like it says in the title. I don't know how I could've made it more concise while still getting the point across. This shit makes me feel so damn uncomfortable, so damn unsettled. The best way I can describe it is that it makes me feel like I'm all alone in a completely empty yet...

Have you ever created a protagonist who's less interesting than the other members of the cast? What made them boring? How do they compare to the other more interesting characters in your story? I'll give an example of mine, should it interest you I think you get the idea. Let's see some...
