*ceasar magically comes back to life*

so much for that idea, taylor. ;)

[Taylor]

Sorry, I meant to say that I removed his soul and it is now in my knife. I'm an exorcist.

*Caesar begins to drool*

Not much of a threat anymore. Now we his need to find Emily's soul and put it back.

[Annemarie, hi]

Okay, guys.

Of all the threads in this group, this one is at least a little bit serious. So, stop spamming it unless you really have a question or suggestion!

[Sevania]

Sorry!

Okay, I posted this a while ago but I think it kinda got lost:


I suggest a topic called Library Hauls. They don't quite fit under What Are You Reading because you're not reading everything you got at the library yet.

[Dana]

I second that, only because now it's summer, and I can totally, like, go to the library A LOT.

Well, Sev, are you going to make the topic or are you going to wait for a mod to do it?

[Sevania]

Do I need at least a mod's approval before I do it?

[Annemarie, hi]

You can do it. You don't really need mod approval to make a topic like this since it's clearly not spam. :)

[Taylor]

Can we have a brainstorming topic? People can come and say, "I have an idea for this, but it has some holes," and other members come and give suggestions or (preferably) just ask questions to help get the creative juices flowing.

[Sevania]

YES that sounds like an amazing topic.

[Sam~~ we cannot see the moon, and yet the waves still rise~~]

oooh i like that idea.

[Acacia]

Yes, that sounds like a good idea.

[Isaac]

Can we possibly just have a music topic? There seems to not be one.

[Elliott]

We kind of have one that no one uses.

You could use this for general music stuff, I think.

[Isaac]

Okay, I wasn't sure. Woo.

Me too lol

[Taylor]

I'm wondering if people would like a thread for sharing and getting feedback on story ideas. I'm seeing a few posts popping up in the brainstorming thread where people want to know what others think of an idea they have, and I think there should be a thread for this. Do y'all agree?

[Raevyn]

YES! XD XD XD
*FANGIRLS OVER THE IDEA*

[Elliott]

I think the Brainstorming topic could be used for that... It is a form of brainstorming.

[Taylor]

@Lav

Perhaps. I dunno…I'd personally use the topic to figure out if a concept is worth spending/wasting time on. Not to flesh anything out.

[Elliott]

I feel like it'd probably be better to keep it all to one topic, just for the sake of having fewer topics, you know? If the Brainstorming topic ever gets really cluttered, then maybe another topic would be useful, but so far it doesn't have that much traffic anyways.

[Brigid ✩, No tears in the writer, no tears in the reader.]

Yeah ... I think it would be better to keep it all in one place, at least for now. Asking for help/feedback/advice on an idea is still a type of brainstorming I think, as Alicia said.

[Sophie]

Hi! I was just wondering, when you win one of the prompt writing comps (I just did), does that mean you make up the next prompt and judge it?

[Isaac]

You can if you want to.

[Sam~~ we cannot see the moon, and yet the waves still rise~~]

congrats sophie! yeah, unless you'd rather someone else do it instead.

[Raevyn]

Why not have a 'blurbs' section? :D

[Elliott]

Hey, Human! If you want to ask for help, you could ask in the Writing Tips topic (https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...) or maybe in the Brainstorming Room (https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...)! I'm sure people would be happy to help you with your characters, and anything else you want to talk about.

[Ember Skye]

Is there a place I can put songs I've wrote? I only write words, so I'm not sure if they would go in the Music thread?

[Isaac]

There's a thread called "Your Music" or something of the sort, I believe. You can put it there.

[Ember Skye]

Okay, Thanks :)

Can you post my story? I am calling it Secrets.

[[deleted user]]

You know, my story topic.

[[deleted user]]

I don't know how to make my topic. Can someone make me a topic entitled Secrets"?

[Isaac]

How to post a story:

1.) Go the the genre folder that matches up with you story. Since I don't know your genre, I'll be using the Realistic Fiction folder.

2.) To make a new topic, click the "New Topic" button on the top right.



3.) Fill in all your info.



4. Click post and you're done.

Like actual published books? Goodreads only posts the info, not the actual book. The only thing you can read on here is creative writing posted by others.

[Liza]

Do romance stories go in the realistic fiction folder?

[Isaac]

If it's realistic fiction. :P If it has a sci-fi element it'd go in the sci-f place, dystopian romance in dystopian, and so on and so forth.

[Arikah]

im writing a time travel story about someone from the 1800s who travels 200 years into the future and is stuck there, and the world is messed up(kind of dystopian but not really..) but i don't know what genre to categorize it under,its not exactly sci fi either. i don't want to give to much away to the plot because its still in the works (:

[Isaac]

Since it is time travel, I think that would probably work more in sci fi even though it's not straight-up that. You can choose whatever you feel like applies to it most, though.
