I’m working on a sort of slapstick kind of funny, old school noir short story, and I would welcome any insight or critique you may have. I just want it to be engaging and funny. I have most of it written but this is the first scene…
Some say he was a bad Phil Hartman impersonation come to life. Zap Brannigan in a fedora and a trench coat. A shallow pastiche representing every cliche of your typical Detective. But see, his identity was more influenced by this guy he’d heard about who just so happened to have existed before all that hackneyed…
The Architect’s Exist
Through streets of copper, binary is flowing, In gates held steady by decades of knowing; I watched the heavens of breathing charts, To find the pulse in the digital parts. But now the logic is cold and deep, Given to machines that need no sleep. They say it is progress, a new way to see,…

Subscription plan that gets cheaper the longer you’re subscribed
Hey, this is just a shower thought. If businesses are already doing this then great but I just haven’t seen it yet: How about a subscription plan that gets cheaper the longer you’re subscribed and thus rewards you for staying loyal to the business/brand? Let’s be real: the economy sucks. While money is getting tighter,…
Does business setup complexity kill your motivation to test ideas?
I am validating a few business ideas right now and one thing that keeps holding me back is the setup and ongoing requirements. The idea itself feels simple but the thought of incorporation, taxes, compliance, and all the legal stuff makes me hesitate. It feels like a big mental barrier before even testing the market.…

What’s your favourite novel opener, and why? (Literary sci-fi)
I’m writing a speculative sci-fi about the social ramifications of trauma-erasing technology and the formation of a support group turned hactivist community. The spinal core of the novel however is a mother-son relationship, the son being the central protagonist. Even though trauma and pain are integral themes, I want there to be a Vonnegut-esque absurdity…
Small metal pointy thing- found in public bathroom

Hello 🙂 I’ve recently started practicing writing odes/poetic letters/poems, could you give me your opinion on this one? Have a good day everyone ☺️

A Website That Forces People to Do a Short Logical Reasoning Question Before Arguing Online
I got tired of getting into online arguments with people online, only to find out the other person was a 12 year old or some guy who believed the Earth was flat. So I thought to myself: wouldn’t it be nice if there was a way to prove someone had basic reasoning skills before they…
Need help naming my script
Wether it’s just a suggestion on how to come up with a title or just a title is fine This is a very new idea I’m planning to turn into a film, but I really feel like i can’t work without a title. I’m going to present the plot, but a lot of it IS…
Does anyone else find it difficult to write?
I’ve been a writer for years. I love it and it’s been the sole drive for me for a very long time, However, the past while, it’s been extremely difficult for me to write; I’m not sure if it’s self criticism or writer’s block, but whenever I try to continue a scene, it feels like…
Had a quick question about a little plot device I’m using…
I’m in a section of my dark fantasy where the FMC drops her name completely; as far as she is concerned, the person that name belonged to is dead. And because she lives in the wilds and there’s no one around who would use a name, she just… kinda never bothers to pick a new…
The girl and the god
Two figures stand opposing each other at the end of it all. One a god one a simple commoner girl no one has heard of. It has become almost impossible to tell who is who. But one is waiting to embrace the other while the other bides her time. Though they both know what is…

The Quietest Job in Merseyside
People think criminals are loud. Sirens. Tyres screaming. Engines howling through red lights while helicopters circle like angry insects. That’s the film version, the comforting lie. It reassures people that crime looks like chaos. In reality, the dangerous ones are polite. Martin Keegan’s gang never ran. They queued. If you’d passed them on Smithdown Road…
Should you get an LLC before starting a business?
Let’s talk about the legal trap. Do you actually need an LLC to start your business? I see this every single day. Someone has a killer idea for a junk removal business or a niche e-commerce store, and instead of finding their first customer, they spend three weeks obsessing over articles about Delaware S-Corps, registered…

I know this isn’t the right place to ask this PLS consider not deleting it becuase I need the help! I am the least creative person I know. I can’t think at all. I am starting an organization that focuses on working with youth in my community who are susceptible to the increase in gun…
Need advice on registering an LLC in Ohio
My husband and I are finally pulling the trigger on starting a business where he’ll be providing a specialized service (specialized refrigeration repair). He is extremely knowledgeable in his area, and honestly, with how many people have been asking for his help lately, I think he’s going to be really successful. My question is about…
Found at front door. Maybe a pound. Metal, plastic, and electronic components.
Half size paper towel for scale. Maybe a pound? Found at the front door with a delivered package (from China I’m pretty sure). We rent from a landlord. Southeast college town. It looks like it either broke in half or was affixed to something on the backside maybe. submitted by /u/UFGator8 [link] [comments]
Did i care?
You asked me if I ever cared. I don’t know. Have I? When I stayed up all night waiting for you to reply, did I? When I sent you a long text apologizing for a mistake you made, did I? When I called you the nicest person in front of everyone, even when we both…

Did Ellen get cancelled? I was just thinking about her and realized it had been a while….
But that’s the point. So maybe getting cancelled is like retiring for celebrities but like ensuring no one wants to be overly social with them or approach them. Their family and close circle sign NDAs and only they know the truth and they live in a selective bubble, live happily ever after in solitude. I…

Lack of context as a writing style
I have noticed there is a spectrum of the level of information and context given to a reader. On one is explicit world building and character introductions, on the other hand there is total dearth of information: “Sally walked into Smith’s, it looked just the same way it always did.” I understand there are many…
