maybe a place where people can share their writing tips?

since glitchreads isn't letting me make threads rn, i have go here :(((

anyways, maybe a place where you can get a writing buddy???
a lot of people on here, including me, struggle with motivation to write and it could be really productive.

ooo another thing: as we gain more members we could have writing challenges !! :) this would also be a way of encouraging people to write more teehee

I love the buddy idea- I have a writing group of like 3 people on another site that I'm a part of, and it's a huge help, especially if your buddy knows your story a little and can help you work out stuff and vice versa.

zuz (nahidacore) | 17 comments hmm i'm not sure how to name it but maybe some sort of general questions section? i have some things i would love to hear your thoughts on (about writing) but they don't really fit in the categories here :')

i think they mean like some questions about the actual writing process. such as “how do i hook my reader” or “what’s the best way to write a subplot?”


message 9: by [deleted user] (new)

so what should we name it ?

Cass (all too tired) | 11 comments maybe a place where people can give tips on how to write different ethnicities so people don't fall into stereotypes?

Niharika✩ (ilikebooksandyou) | 377 comments What about a folder for people to create threads and rant out what they are thinking about their book. Ask advice and suggestions. Basically that stuff. A whole thread for themselves.

Allyson | 243 comments Can you make a thread for (I'm not sure how to explain this) but where we can write out prompts/ our ideas for books that start and end with the same line?

mm like individual writing nooks? I'll set up a folder where individuals can ask for their own individual thread or make their own! Thanks for the suggestion & sorry for the late reply!

I get what you mean, I think it's called circular narrative? I'll get a thread set up for it :D
