So, I am trying to scrub my fantasy novel off of public areas of the internet. I did only post a portion of my first draft. The content my change greatly, as may the title, but I am still deathly afraid of working away at this only for a publisher to go "we found this by searching online, and...

I bought a custom fin fun mer tail, and I already love it. I can't wait to try swimming in it.

Years ago I never really imagined what I'd be getting into now - that I would be writing a fantasy novel about mermaids and mermen. As time progressed though, I started to get really into the process of writing it. Then I started getting into the researching for the book - looking at ocean...

My plan all this time has been - write drafts for books I want to write on sites like this. Then I finish the first draft, do a couple revisions, then take the story off of the site. Then I try to get an editor to pick it up, and after trying a bunch of manuscripts with a bunch of publishers...

So I hear something like this a every so often from readers on sites like this - "I hate getting into a story and then find that it's been on hiatus for a year, and so for that reason I tend to avoid reading ongoing work because I don't want to fall into the same trap." That brings me to a...

I have a friend @Survey on here that wants to write on here more, and be more active, but he has had difficulties. For one, he says that when he gets on the site, he tries to post comments, and they don't work. He has verified his email, so it isn't that. He's trying to access the site on his...

I'm kind of being legit serious. I didn't think it was possible for a story with only 800+ views to get on trending - also, I haven't seen any uptick in views from a few hours ago. :blob_frown:

I was clearly in a bad mood when I made my original post. So I've deleted it. I've gotten some useful advice and some needed humility. I just was frustrated that non - isekai fantasy has a harder time on this site. Despite this, I will continue with my work nonetheless, even if my methods...

So, I saw the hint of this on a thread, but I'm not sure if a thread on this has been done before - But considering the copious amounts of stories with adult content on the site, I think it would benefit some readers to have a way to filter that so they can find stories that don't have sexual...

Made this for the main discord I use, surrounding the upcoming game Hytale. A simple Kweebec, from the upcoming game Hytale. This little guy has taken upon himself the name Treesinger. Normally among the Kweebecs, Treesingers are the elders who teach the young seedlings. However, this young...

Hello all, I recently did a thread where I asked for critiques of my cover: I got some good feedback, and I've decided to come forward with a new one: Obviously, featuring an actual merperson I think makes the cover better, as it demonstrates what my story is about. It also has my...

Writing sites like Wattpad already have this as a feature - that the author can choose in what order stories appear. If such a thing is too difficult, perhaps just allowing the user to change the sorting. I'm not sure why it sorts so that oldest is on top - I think it would more likely be the...

Is there any way to change story order on the main site, like when people look at your profile page? I feel also like it's kind of odd that it sorts so oldest is on top...

Basically, I just want some thoughts on my story's cover and title. I know that this is one of the biggest things that determines if people read my story. I am not in a position at the current time to make a more professional cover, and I am not requesting a cover. Personally, I like the...

It's not a big deal if I can't, I was just wondering.

Hey all y'all, If you don't know, I'm currently working on a fantasy novel centering on the dynamic between a human and merfolk civilization. For a fun little thing with that, I made this: It is derived off the icon I use in most other places: Yeah, so something I'm wondering, do you guys...

I've been thick in the weeds with coming up with names for characters, places, etc. for my fantasy world Treyidal. Just curious, how do y'all come up with names? Do you do what I do most of the time and just smash sounds together, do you assemble some underlying rules? Or do you go full...

So, first I must preface this little shower thought with: I am very unfamiliar with the tropes of isekai. I am extremely illiterate when it comes to anime. However, what I know of the genre's basics - it involves travel to a fantasy world, often with a violent event causing it, such as being...

Hullo, Got some advice on this back on the Wattpad forums before they were yeeted out of existence, but I was wondering if anyone had expertise with clothing that could help me with some worldbuilding. In my searching online for resources, there's actually not a ton on this. My story is set in...

You have a story that hasn't gotten a lot of ratings or reviews, but your story is sitting at a five star rating. Then, one day, some pompous windbag thinks that your story is unreadable, and without a word, takes it down a star. I'm venting of course. I also don't know how much people on the...
