Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Think about all the absolutely terrible writing that's out there. Writing that people are reading because they feel like they've read everything else in their ~~fetish~~ genre already.
You can do better than that! Surely!
It's so bad that people are resorting to using AI to write (awful) stories for them. These stories don't make any sense yet people read them anyway. Why? Because they ran out of the other stuff they like in their little ~~fetish~~ genre.
Tell your story! I'm positive someone will be interested in it.
I recently wrote a novel for a writing contest: https://www.honeyfeed.fm/novels/22194
Many people thought it was funny and entertaining but most stopped reading after the second or third chapter. The people that made it all the way to the end expressed an attitude like, "Finally! A story that's actually unique!" And that's exactly why I wrote it! Because I'm sick of "the same old shit" (in the isekai genre) 🤣
Write your story for you and be satisfied 👍
