Writer's Club: Ask a question and tag your story

[Ybot76]

I think I would probably work as a ghost writer, but it wouldn't be ideal? Like I'd much rather write my own story, but if given the option between ghost writing and not writing at all I'd def ghost write.

Happy to give anyone's story a few chapters if you give mine a few (Just let me know if u do)

Read To Be Human | Tapas Web Community

To Be Human follows Argo, a member of an assassin's guild, on a quest for vengeance against the mysterious figure who murdered his parents. He is joined by Nyx, a freshly initiated guild member, and Ryle, a Knower from the Eastern province.

As he journeys deeper into the secrets of his past, Argo is forced to grapple with the guild's teachings of isolationism, walking a fine line between solitude and friendship. Every bond he forms becomes a potential weakness, and every connection tests his resolve.

What is your favorite trope?

Mine is probably "friends to lovers"

Hmm I’m working on a fantasy novel for now before it was mystery and thriller comic. I don’t really have a favorite genre to work on,it just depends on my mood lol.

I’m a huge fan of the found family trope. It’s something about a group of strangers coming together creating a familial bond between them.

Oh forgot to ask a question, here’s one does anyone have their novels ending in mind. I have at least two so far

s ghost written (like the author of Animorphs) but I would legitimately prefer credit and the ability to put the work on my resume in most cases. Ghost writing for a genre I don't care for or write myself would probably not bug me too much if my name wasn't on it, but that's not many genres tbh (I write romance, comedy, suspense, fantasy, sci-fi, historical etc.)

So the point still stands.

It really depends on the payment: Honestly at this point I realized that money is money and art is art... and if doing art will get me to pay for my house than so be it. BUT as I said... that would come at a really high prize.

[Selfmaiden]

Oh, I answered your question and forgot to ask my own question:
How long have you been writing and what made you start?

Also: Here is my story:

I am a sucker for enemies to lovers. But friends to lovers is great aswell.

[GeekyShadowz]

Personally, I have no problem with the concept of ghostwriting as a way of assisting the credited author, but I probably wouldn't do it if it required me to contribute more than 60% of the work. At that point, I feel I should receive some credit. I would have concerns about my resume though. I may try to negotiate into being allowed to use it on a resume with contact information for those that seek verification of my claim.

I'm just gonna leave this here now...

"The Not Love Interest", "Implied Love Interest" and "Platonic Life Partners"

Never liked the prevalent idea in fiction that seems to communicate that romantic relationships are the best thing ever or is better/"more" than platonic ones, so I like stories that can show that platonic relationship can be as deep and fulfilling. #aroace

I would like to be recognized as a writer, but I would like my novel to be loved and seen as a comfort story when people need a pick me up.

What scene in your book came out of left field?

What scene in your book came out of left field?

does that mean came to you at random or seemed like a random twist? If so, it's the scene where Mora gets poisoned by the scent of bath salts in the chapter "Phantosmia"

[MelancholicOtaku]

A scene that came out of left field for me would have to be my characters Elias and Tholdir already knowing each other. I wanted them to bump into each other by accident but they already had a slight growing friendship

[clementina]

Yes!

Or maybe, it can also be interpreted as "What scene in your book didn't fit into the genre you were writing?"

@BreeBaxter Mancer might just end my existence because I know too much. He's a little obsessive. 🫠

[Leyelle]

Ohh, I think most of my scenes fit genre-wise cuz they're usually a combination in the first place, but for Crystal Blue it would still be "Phantosmia" because that's the first psyche-thriller like scene of the novel

[MelancholicOtaku]

I would 100% be the lovable sidekick.
Also I am their creator so they’re stuck with me

My question: Would you survive and/or thrive if you ended up in your current story?

I think I would end up flailing around in the towers and ask to be moved to a desk job instead managing the hunters

Here's my story if anyone's curious to try reading it! ^^

[Leyelle]

I would thrive. My life would probably be better actually because there are a lot of companies in the shared world of "A Dozen Morning Glories" and "Damsel in the Red Dress" that focus on hiring pocs and especially female pocs writers and artists, so I'd be doing stellar
