    What makes a character evil and when is that evil redeemable?

    General thought process question for something I'm working on right now. I've actually had a character who is an antagonist go from seeming like a total scoundrel to redemption in their backstory. While I'm tempted to take the same route again with another character, I have something different...

    'Outgrowing' a Type of Narrative or Genre

    I had an interesting discussion with a close friend who had found they no longer had an interest in elements and sub topics of my narratives where characters are wrestling with their psychology and self identity because they found they have successfully gone through therapy and psychological...

    Extra Paragraph Spaces Not Showing Up On Chapters Anymore

    I used to be able to add extra paragraph spaces at the end of a chapter to provide some space between the text and the acknowledgements and create dramatic pauses. But that doesn't seem to work anymore. Edit - This also seems to retroactively affect all postings. There are no extra spaces anywhere.

    What’s your most ambitious idea for a story?

    I was just thinking about this recently because I’m actually attempting stuff that’s fairly ambitious and huge and I don’t know if I’ll succeed but I’m giving a shot. There’s a lot of ideas that kind of float around my head that are huge or would take a lot of research and work to really get...

    I often run into an issue where I try to save the page edits and the saving hangs for a very long time and I need to reload the page. Typically nothing is lost but weird glitch.

    Crafting A Contained Story

    Hi, I am an author and I have a problem. It’s basically the literary equivalent of feature creep. I have a bunch of stories set in various universes which could spend hundreds to thousands of pages on epic events and small personal ones too. For the future and my sanity and my reader’s...

    Is this a utopia/dystopia/something else and why?

    I have a premise vaguely similar to this comic and I was curious to kind of explore the nooks and crannies of this idea more fully. Fundamentally, it’s the same core as The Matrix but the machines are benign/caretakers for humanity. Not to spoil too much of the Matrix series but it seems like...

    The ability to pin a certain work as featured

    Basically how Twitter pins certain posts to the top of someone’s account. I have some works from last year which I had to put on hiatus and short of deleting them and re-posting I feel like it would be insanely difficult for anyone to find these works if I added a new chapter aside from current...

    Feedback On A Living Weapon Concept

    This is an idea which has been percolating in my head for a while. It's set in a mystical version of the old west where living weapons leech off of human hosts. A young man on a rural farm awaits his elder sister's return from the big city when a cruel group of bandits attack his home. To...

    Resolved Paragraph Spaces Vanishing

    I pasted text like I usually do from a word processor and when I move the text around in the client, the paragraph spaces vanish when they never ever did that before with the exact same method. I've tried pasting plain text into the editor and it has the exact same issue. The key issue is...

    Resolved The word "Advertisement" showing up on random headers

    I've noticed some author pages and chapters just say "advertisement" right before the description or text body. Figured it was just a placeholder for eventual ads on the site but just checking to make sure it isn't a bug.

    What's Your Most Ambitious Story Concept?

    And how do you want it to play out? ------ I have several. I have an idea for a fallen royal named Clavis Trine from a sci-fantasy world, with traversible wormholes called "rackereys", where the matriachial ruling class have subjugated the species who once ruled the planet. Clavis greviously...

    How Do You Balance Several Stories At Once?

    This is probably my biggest problem as a writer. I only recently finished a project which is 440,000 words long and written all before publishing it. I wrote the vast majority of it very fast and then the last 8000 words were something I put off for six months before finally finishing in a day...

    I have time after time after time gotten what may be a glitch but I want to move the hour of a release and it suddenly releases the chapter. It has caused me so much frustration. We need a box like delete confirmation where you can confirm that yes you do want to release something now because it...

    Resolved Latest Updates Notices Vanishing

    I added a new chapter to one of my stories, it was at the Latest page and I checked minutes later and the Latest notice on the page just disappeared from between two other chapters people posted at the same time. This especially concerns me because it's an entry in The Adventum Contest.
