Behind the Scenes by DevStuff (HybridTrash13), MentalBabble (THybrid21)
Fandoms: Original Work

Summary
Well hello there intrepid reader, and welcome to this guide that I am working on. This guide called Behind the Scenes now, right off the bat, I am going to tell you that honestly when it comes to writing and everything that I will be mentioning in this guide there is no absolutely right or wrong way to go about it.
The best thing that you can do is just go ahead and write. To do your best with what creativity that you have. With your characters and your ideas. But this can be something of a starting point I guess. A reference point if all else fails.
And who knows, maybe there will be something good in here.
Well?
Are you ready?
Because here we go then. On to actually writing. Also there will be a handful of optional writing/brainstorming exercises scattered throughout for you to try as you go along. Maybe you might even find a starting point for a story.
Well. Now we'll begin.

Summary
Sometimes authors are at a loss, fumbling toward their next narrative — even in a pulp setting wherein they have the freedom of inventing their technobabble — and a bumbling interruption provides that certain special inspiration.
(Character species inspired by the Cheela of “Dragon's egg” and “Starquake”, by Robert L. Forward.)
I read and appreciate (and try to reply to) all of your comments (they are always welcome)!

Загадки місячного світла by Anonymous
Fandoms: Joker Out (Band), Real Person Fiction, Eurovision Song Contest RPF
03 Jul 2024
Tags
Summary
У приглушеному світлі ламп несподівано вдалося щось розгледіти. Це щось виглядало як сутність, що виходила з місячних променів і миготіла в повітрі, між світлом і тінями. Його обличчя мало блідий відтінок, майже напівпрозору шкіру, яка тонко пульсувала від місячного світла. Темне, злегка кучеряве волосся, обрамляло його обличчя. Темні очі здавались наповненими загадковістю і мудрістю, яка надходила від віків.

The Tragedy of The Second Coming by thedeadmanwalking
Fandoms: Animator vs. Animation (Short Films - Becker)
10 Mar 2025

Summary
The Second Coming just wants to make Alan proud. But when mistakes pile up, and exhaustion weighs heavy, the little orange stick figure crumbles under the pressure of perfection. A heartbreaking look into burnout, self-doubt, and the longing to be enough.
This work was not created with AI. English is not my first language, so the texts are translated, which may cause some inconsistencies or misunderstandings. Some structures might seem similar because writing is a hobby I am learning and trying to improve. I repeat certain patterns for comfort and efficiency, as my goal is to create several short stories a day. Thank you for understanding!

Summary
What happens when a director decides to make the ultimate meta-film - himself as the subject, object, and lens all at once?
The result is either artistic brilliance or the most elaborate monument to self-regard ever captured on camera.Astarion - pale as moonlight, with an ego that could eclipse the sun - assembles a crew for his most ambitious project yet.
Those who've lost the ability to be shocked attempt to capture layer upon layer of cinematic reality.This is the story of a production where the boundary between genius and absurdity blurs - until even the crew can't tell the difference.
As meta-narratives spiral into infinity and reality fractures into prismatic shards, you'll witness the transformation of narcissism into something that transcends conventional categories.
Is it art? Is it madness? Is it both? -

Summary
Nick was the only drummer he could hear in these songs. No one else fit like he did. Marty couldn’t afford to risk that. Just like he couldn’t risk the gig. Or the tour before that. Or the album before that. There was always too much at stake if anything went sideways. Always too much. And it never seemed to end.
