Does anyone else just write stories here?

Kudos to you for writing mystery! That's a hard genre to write in. I don't think I could write a mystery for anything. I wish you best on your writing journey =)

[caelenmustang]

Thanks, you too! What are you writing about?

[Testaccount]

Right now I'm posting two stories on here. My one story is about mermen and mermaids =) It's about a black woman in the 18th century that gets brought to the undersea world.

My second story is about a girl who was turned into a unicorn, but she doesn't know how or why? Basically, she loses her memory and has to find a way to regain her body back.

Both stories are fantasy.

That's so true! When I draw, I try not to beat myself up over the little things.

Thanks for the advice, and I'll check out more of the forums.

Hi, welcome here!

I’m a writer, too, but I struggle too much with English to share any story here. It’s also easier for me to read webcomics but sometimes I give a try to written stories on Tapas.

I can’t draw, I’m too bad at it to be interested in improvement plus I don’t enjoy it. But years ago, I made a friend who draws and so we started a webcomic together. I made my way on Tapastic by becoming a scritptwriter. It’s not the same thing as writing a whole story but it’s really funny too.

I hope you find readers here, your stories seem interesting! I love mystery, romance and fantasy so I might try to read it

Same! Im in love with these comics and I put a lot in my library so when I have time I can just read them I actually try and write every genre but Im known for Horror, Fantasy and "Weird"

Hello, another just-writer checking in
I'm in talks with a couple of artists to turn one of my books into a comic, which I'm super excited about, but it's been a very slow process so far. I'm certainly no artist, however!

I'm hoping to find some readers here on Tapas, but it does seem to be very comic centered. Then again, the novel feature on here is still fairly new.

Hey there!

I'm trying Tapas hoping to get readers, too, but so far I haven't had much luck, but yeah, their novel feature is still new.

That's so neat turning your story into a comic. What's your story about?

[EKirke]

The elevator pitch is that it's about a girl who goes on a summer cruise, and ends up finding out she's a witch. But there's a vampire on board feeding from the other passengers, so she and the other paranormal beings she meets have to fight/stop him!

Here's a link if you're at all interested. What's yours about?

[InZanity]

I wish i could draw too but somehow my attention leans more on reading and writing than actually learning how to draw. so I'm working on writing more :3

[x4ever]

It's great to see a writer thread here for ONCE. Everything is comic related so I can't find anyone to relate too.

My name's sho nice to meet you!

I'm currently working on a book about a girl who gets transported to another world and she possesses a cool purple mist power.

Right? Love all the comic things around here, very helpful to those who want to get to know the comic creating process, start their own, or get some help, but there needs to be a little more love for the writers, savvy? I've a couple of writer topics that I started myself—well, three now including the newest one.

• From Fan Work to Original
• Writers in Progress
• Tapas Book Club

Also, your idea sounds pretty cool. If you ever post it on Tapas, would love to take a look.

[Testaccount]

Thanks for responding to me! I'm new to Tapas, so it's nice to see other writers here. Your story sounds interesting

[x4ever]

I'll definitely go check them out?

I wish tho that Tapas would make seperate sections for writing and comics

[x4ever]

Thank you so much! Just wondering - how did you find tapas

[x4ever]

Just wondering. Is anyone here aiming to write a book for premium?

[Testaccount]

Tapas does have the novel section which is just for stories, but I feel the "popular/premium" stories overshadow the rest of us.

[Testaccount]

I used to write on Wattpad, and I heard Tapas was inviting just "popular" Wattpad writers to join the site. I heard about Tapas from that, but I didn't decide to join until I found a comic on here I really liked. If it wasn't for the comic, I probably wouldn't be on this site. I didn't like the way Wattpad was ran, and Tapas appears to be run the same way. But, we'll see what happens.

[x4ever]

I used to write for wattpad too! But I decided I liked this platform better lol. It's more personal, and the books here are better quality than wattpad because it's not overrun by kids.

Yeah, premium stories are definitely more emphasized on the site. But technically anyone can become a premium story if you but the work into it. I emailed one of the workers and they said that if you have an almost complete or complete story, you can sent it to them, and if their editing team likes it, they will accept it as premium. I believe its a really good way for indie writers to shine

Plus, I looked into some premium novels, and the writing levels can range from beginner to professional writing. So if you have a good plot and most of your story done, I believe that any of us can do it

[Testaccount]

That's so true about Wattpad. I do find the quality of stories better on here, but I feel as the site grows, that quality will go down.

I'm truly happy my Wattpad days are over =)
