Welcome thread for the newbies!

Hi there!

Hello!

 

[Shorgoth]

Hello there, I'm Shorgoth. I'm a cyberpunk writer... or at least I've been trying to be for the past 17 or 18 years at this point. I think I'm on my last stretch to actually write the damn thing, though. It took a while to develop my own voice as a writer, and lately, AI offered me the capacity to do something I couldn't do by myself: add music and images to complement the text extensively. I'm experimenting with a new medium of sort, I call it AI-graft. Basically, the novel is all mine, but I'm using AI to generate a large volume of support material to a degree that would have needed over a hundred of million of dollars in the past. I'm adding 1.3 (on average) songs per chapter, minimum 1 and 2-5 images (maybe more in the future, once AI is more cooperative with precise art directions)+ 1 per song (album cover) None of these are one prompt and done, this a long itterative process with clear direction, not a wishy washy "heh good enough"... though, admitedly they are all "place holders until I get better results" like my own writing XD

This novel is my life's work; it's not a summer read, it's a deep psychological, sociological and philosophical exploration of the nature of consciousness, in finding meaning in an absurd Universe, on trauma and healing, but is disguised as a gritty first-person cyberpunk with deeply personal stakes until a few reveals recontextualize the whole story into something different. This is partly why it has been so long to write; every reading level needs to work independently without harming the other, and needs to have good flow and be interesting at the same time.

By the way, how do people link their novels in their signatures around these parts? I'm not good with that part of tech...

 

[ChristopherMartinsen]

I guess this is where I say hi as a newcomer to Scribblehub?
So, Hi!

 

[Max02]

I'm pretty much starting to dedicate myself to writing, and since I don't have enough free time to write full fledged works, so I'll mostly post here my amateur short stories.

My stories generally center around flesh and blood human beings dealing with human all too human situations. Even when and if I write sci-fi, it's the human element that interests me the most.

 

[No-One-Important]

Hiya! Im new on Scribble Hub. I was posting on ummmm uuhhh Royal Road but I tried this place because I've heard people here like anime more than on RR...so uuuhhhh yeah! Hola

Well what more to say than Hello from the servoland

 

[Nazet]

Hey there! I’m Nazet, and I’m happy to join you guys.

I love video games, anime and manga... they’re a huge source of my inspiration. Now i have the desire to create and share my stories inspired by the worlds and characters I admire and like.

Right now, I’m working on two stories that I am posting here as well as on other platforms and the first with 3 chapter out right now is a Tekken fanfiction called “Tsukikage: Moon Shadows”. It’s a mix of action, drama, mystery and some tsundere energy for good measure.

If you enjoy stories that blend intense battles with personal struggles and emotional growth, I think we’ll get along just fine.
You can read here: Tsukikage: Moon Shadows, and let me know your thoughts.

And If you have any recommendations for exciting stories, feel free to share them with me. My focus is on action and comedy, but I love a good drama and romance story too.

 

[StarRoad]

Hi everyone!

I'm StarRoad. Feel free to call me Star!

I’ve been posting my novel Through the Shimmer here since early September, but I somehow never got around to introducing myself until now. I just hit 21 chapters and 85k words, which feels like a nice milestone to finally say hello properly! ?

I’m still getting used to the community side of ScribbleHub, and I’m excited to start chatting with more writers and readers here. It’s always a little nerve-racking putting your work out there for the first time, but the support I’ve seen on this site has been so encouraging.

How’s everyone else finding things lately? Any favorite threads or tips for a late forum-joiner?

Thanks in advance, and happy writing everyone!

—Star
P.S. I tried to make my signature a link, but got locked out for spam ?

 

[getjinxednikki]

I found this place from a google search, looking for a new board, my old one is now gone.
I write really bad poetry and once I get the nerve I may post some of them.
Also not great at introductions either.
So yeah... hi.

 

[Anarchy666]

Hi! Just found this place. Looks pretty chill. I may hang around for a bit if you don't mind?

 

[Eisteufel]

Hey everyone :-) Just saying hi and I’m really happy to be here :-)
There isn't that much to say about me. I mainly write gay romances as well as historical and mystery novels. I’ve decided to try my hand at translating one of my stories and will be uploading it here bit by bit.

Name/Nickname: Mike Fontana (You can just call me Mike)
Hobbies/interests: Writing, Gaming, Anime, Movies/TV
Genres: Fantasy, LitRPG, Science Fiction, Isekai
Favorite Novel: Empire of Exiles by Erin M. Evans
Why?: The world-building depth, characters, and story were all amazing, as was the blend of genres. Murder-Mystery and Adventure-Fantasy.
Other Stuff:
As I mention in my About-Me section on both my forum profile, and main SH profile, I am an aspiring author with a couple of projects in the works.
Shameless Self-Promo: If you're looking for a darker Gothic-Fantasy setting and story that explores themes of corruption, power, and the price of leadership in a Kingdom-Building LitRPG Isekai story, you might want to add my story; Aethara: The King's Path to your reading lists here on ScribbleHub. Chapter 1 will be available by the end of the month (November 2025). Thanks in advance, and I do hope you enjoy the read.

 

[AliceMoonvale]

Ello! I'm not only new to scribblehub but new to webnovel writing in general. Used to writing silly little things to myself or writing in roleplays with others. Thought I'd give this a try, first time I've ever posted a story since my ancient fictionpress/fanfiction.net days.

Primarily a fantasy writer~ working on one story so far, maybe a second. Who knows!

 

[C.J.Night]

Wagwaan, Earthlings:) I'm C.J. Night. Writer?

I’m the guy who smashed together McGregor’s knockout swagger, Burroughs’ urban chaos, and a manga-punk heart that never sleeps. I write like I’m loaded into the ring of words, gloves off, ready to punch holes in reality. My stories hit like neon graffiti tagging your brain: wild, unfiltered, and unapologetic. If you’re looking for a ride where genre rules burn and the narrator laughs in the wreckage — pull up a seat, strap in, and let’s wreck this page together.

 

[Sen_Kumo]

Hello! I’m Sen, attempting to become a writer but struggling as expected. User of another novel site and former member of a real old manga forum. Not used one of these for years!
anyways, I write literally anything I get inspiration for, hopefully a good mix of genres can boost my skills a lil. Oh and I don’t read as much as I should, currently getting into the second book of asoiaf, and a handful of manga series. I’ll probably be posting some stuff (like the story behind the profile pic) eventually, if you have the time please do give my work a go, it would be greatly appreciate, just remember to be as critical as you can (I’m an old boy, can take it)

Nice meeting you all!

 

[HouseOfUkiro]

Hello, HouseOfUkiro, HOU for short (pronounced hoe)

Interests/hobbies: Working out. Gaming. Lucid Dreaming and OBEs.

Genres I read: LitRPGs mostly.

Fave Novel: The Devourer by CypherTails. Learned a lot from the author’s writing and prose. World building was neat too.

Currently writing: The Shard Catacombs

I have limited experience with writing and Scribble hub. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

 

[AlmondyMilky]

Hello, you can call me Almond for short. My favorite scribblehub novel is Rend and I love reading just about everything except smut and icky stuff like it. Im kinda a goober and am not used to forums please teach me kindly :>

 

[Maelstrom556]

Hey ya'll(sic)! You can call me Mael.

I tend to play a lot of video games, do a little roleplaying sometimes, and love to commission art of my characters.

I mostly like to read cozy fantasy and some of the more simple action/adventure type stuff. Dark themes, deep concepts, lots of death, and anything smutty need not cross my peepers. Fun adventures with low stakes and interesting characters are where it's really at for me. A bit of girl's love here and there surely doesn't hurt, though. My favorite book is definitely Legends & Lattes by Travis Baldree. It's such a sweet little low-stakes story that I spent an entire day reading. It was actually the first time in over a decade that I've been so invested in a story that I block out everything around me to read it.

As for stuff that I write, I haven't posted anything yet. I've got some things ready, but I'm still trying to figure out exactly how I'm going to go about it. I mostly write for myself, but if someone finds it interesting, that's just icing.

 

[Evablizz]

While I know most of the users here are migrating from Novel Update Forums but I'm pretty sure along with the ones from the other forum there will be members that are completely new so that's the purpose of this thread! To welcome the newbies.

An example of the intro would probably be good so here's mine
I'm called Ophious but people here usually call me Ophi or Phiphi for short
Well since I'm here you can probably tell I have a deep interest in reading novels, games anime and manga are also things I like, basically I'm like an average person. I do like cooking a little and gardening is starting to become a boom in my family and I might join
Current favourite has got to be my sister the villainess by cupcake ninja, there will be r18 scenes later but it'll be indicated in the chapter title and isn't necessary to read for the plot! I like it since it's quote funny
Genres I prefer are fantasy, comedy and slice of life
Not really into deep dark stuff

I'm called Evablizz
I'm interested in fantasy, romance, school life and comedy novels
My best novels so far are let me game in peace, the first order, I am a fake cultivator, hellbound with you, spellbound, hellbound heart, married to the devil's son so do let me know if you have
recommendations like these?
