Description:
Speculative Fiction authors create worlds where anything can happen, where the reader leaves just a bit of themselves behind when they return to our world. Their stories are about places beyond reality, places that could have been or might have been, if the rules of the universe were altered slightly.

They write stories that push at the boundaries of the imagination and make the reader think, by... Show More

Do you have a MIND BLOWING STORY that's just dying to be reviewed?

The Magnolia Blossom Reviews have offered their services for those ***COMPLETED AND ON THE RETAIL MARKET*** novels, novellas, or shorts (don't worry - if your book has between 40-60 pages it's a short... in their book at least!)

Also, if you have a book ready, but it's not on the market because you've just not gotten the gumption up to put it on the market -... Show more

New Line Story Rules By: Speculative Author

It's seems more people are joining in on the fun with Line Story and we’re glad that people like this idea. Although this is a very new concept and has been going on for only a few weeks we feel the need to make changes. As with anything the more people participating the more there are needs for greater rules.

We’ve noticed that in this latest Line Story, how eagerness to participate has caused some to ignore the few rules... Show more

I am referring to other people making mistakes, not me :P

RevkenR

I make mistakes all the time. The funny thing is the other writers just go with it and write it into the story as if it was supposed to be that way. :o)

S.P. Johnson Jr.

Just have fun with it. The goal isn't to end with a pristine and polished gem. We spend (or should spend) plenty of time editing our own works. With the line story, we're only trying to communally exercise creativity and see what happens.

A companion book to Dance of Shame, in Nivren's perspective. I would really appreciate reads, comments, faves, etc. Thanks :)

I have decided to re-publish my fantasy novel in progress, Akata: Whispers of the Past (with a new book cover). Eventually, I intend to illustrate the book, especially since it is a prequel to my webcomic, Callous. I would really love some feedback. Feel free to give it a... Show more

This will be a weekly grammar and style lesson for anyone that wants to improve or freshen up on their grammar skills. I'm in need of this myself, so whatever I learn each week, from books and English teachers, I'll be placing here. If anyone have something to add, have at it.

This is a learning thread only.

It's up to us to improve our writings not others, through asking for editing. We can tell a great story, but if the... Show more

For those who need a bit more help with editing, but can't seem to find anyone to assist. Ginger is a free download that's a great help. Also I've posted a few others in this thread that can help clean up your writing. http://www.gingersoftware.com/

S.P. Johnson Jr.

Nice! Thanks. I usually just run things through editor minion which helps save time, but has limited capabilities.

Glynis Rankin

I use Ginger while I write, but I still check it again using Pro Writing Aid and minion. I don't think one program catches everything.

I'm a music person. I love to write, but get writer's blocked a lot. So the only thing I have posted so far is a short story I wrote a few months ago.

RevkenR

Welcome misskbug, and thanks for joining. Perhaps it would help you get over your blocks by joining in on the line story with us.

I am the co-creator of StoryCraft Story-Creation Software, which began in 1996 as one of the first software programs for fiction writers. Back then, when no one even knew how software could be used to help you write a story, my company was the first to coin the term "story-creation software." Now called StoryCraft New Edition, in its first major makeover in nearly two decades, the program is the only writer's software that... Show more
