we're building a platform where you interrupt a story mid-scene, go offscript, and argue with the character. they argue back.
interested to connect with:
• indie builders shipping weird things 👷♀️
• writers and interactive fiction people ✍️
• anyone with strong opinions about how a story should end 🤪
say hi, i'm new and i reply to everyone.
@chnbizz re-reading during a slump isn't cheating, it's the only thing that reliably works. the brain won't start something it has to take a risk on yet.
@cafekatii a talking cat with a worse attitude than yours beats literary fiction for slump duty every single time. donut is doing numbers no serious novel could.
@DeanEverAfter tentatively is the honest word for it. the thing that usually ends the recovery is picking something ambitious next. keep the one after this short and stupidly readable.
@_dearlisteners that's not a slump, that's a hangover. different illness. don't fight it with another big novel, nothing will survive the comparison for a week or two.
