TAPAS: new (written) stories

yumehop 2016-02-18 23:13:24 UTC #1

With tapas coming so soon, I wonder if anyone has already got some juicy stories/scripts/poems/anything already geared under? If so, what is it? Unless you prefer not to spoil, of course ^_^

I have been working on a couple of stories. I was going to use them on Amazon, but IF it opens up to other people I would consider putting them up on Tapas.

Still working on them.

What's TAPAS? I never heard of it.

It's the new major app overhaul provided as an update to the original Tapastic app. It offers new services and way to read and support creators, including tools such as the Coin and Keys system, all while still offering the awesome comics we know and love Tapas is the name of the new app update/service (it's still known as Tapastic on the website tho, that's still remaining).

Here are some threads on it:

I'm thinking of using this opportunity with the new novel options to really write Time Gate as a novel again (the way it was originally offered). It hasn't been a novel since its early days as a fanfiction. It's obviously been overhauled a lot, and is now 100% original, and it would be nice to give that novel format back to the readers who followed the series a lot in the past 6 years while it was on FanFiction.Net. Just as an original story now.

But I'll see what the new novel program is like. It may not be for me, so we'll have to wait and see

I originally did writing before drawing out comics, so yeah I already have a lot of stuff I could submit if I wanted to.

I would like to see the platform and how easy it is up upload first, as well as if it's even worth the effort and will gain readers or not.

Hearing from the livestream not everyone may be able to post their novels at first?

Hopefully they allow something like Current Comic creators to post stories along side their comic

I was going to mention this too. It sounded like it was only a select group and then it might open up to others later.

I have a story I could use, but I'm not sure it's ready to go on Tapas yet. I'm so excited to be able to read other people's stories though, and I've been trying to convince my friend who writes a lot to think about posting on it! ^-^

I love writing short stories and chapter-by-chapter novellas, so if Tapas is what it sounds like, then I'll definitely be posting to it! Currently, I can only really post my written stories on Deviant Art, so a new place to share my work would be great!

I've been brushing up on my old writing habits recently, and I've been planning a something of a series, so maybe this is the perfect chance to get it done?
Can't wait.

Thank you tapastic staff for answering my question not when I originally asked or even somewhere that would easy to find by people at anytime, but in a god damn livestream that I 1.did not have time to attend, 2. don't want to ****ing sit through cause I have better things to do with my life just give me answers to questions I can friggen read please.

Those streams are as firggen frustrating as those meetings you are required to go to at work that are pretty much all stuff that COULD HAVE BEEN COVERED IN 1 ****ING E-MAIL BUT INSTEAD I HAVE TO SIT IN THIS ROOM FOR 3 HOURS KILL ME NOW.

... anyway...

I'll probably pass on the pre-picked novels, their current premium section very much lacks appeal to me so kind of feels like their novel section will do the same. Also the reading only on the phone thing, not a fan of reading novels on the phone, comics meh, facebook and social networks, ehh, but me, I would rather be playing a stupid phone game while taking a crap than readinging thank you very much.
