I come to lying on my side in what smells like a swamp, the damp earth pressing into my face. My limbs feel all wrong, too short and bent in ways they shouldn't be. The air is thick and damp, filled with the scent of wet leaves, dirt, and something acrid that stings my nose. Groaning, I try to...

Prologue
Somewhere in the American Midwest
Kyle woke from his sleep with a start to the thump-thump of footsteps just outside his bedroom window. The eleven-year old boy laid there, immobile, as a shadow crossed the moonlit spot on his bedroom's...
I don't know if there is one set up but I wanna make one. I make this one cause I don't know if anyone has done this but I would like to have a thread.

WOLFENSTEIN
THE FINAL EMPEROR
By breaded hamster
"We did it, finish line is far behind us, I'm still drunk with gratitude. Those final days you gave me were sweeter than any time in my life. When you left us, the pain was greater than anything I've endured. It's just me and our boys now...
A single officer, dressed in a clean olive green dress uniform with a beret, marched through the halls of the United Nations Space Peacekeeping Forces Headquarters in San Diego. The tall, towering structure was a recent addition, constructed thirty years ago due to humanity's expansion into...
Synopsis
Kyle woke up in a land of fantasy and magitech. The usual 'I died and woke up' bullshit, skip all that.
Except he used to be a crime lord, and society here is missing that extra kick.
Chapters come when they are ready, aiming for one a day.
Patreon is 60 chapters ahead...

This thread is for ideas for my take on answering the writing prompt from this other thread I started. Two worlds, one science-fantasy hosting magitech and the other a less fantastical science-fiction future colony of Earth, come into first contact over FTL/interdimensional comms entirely by...
(Full title, since it got cut off: '[Writing/Worldbuilding Premise/Prompt/Challenge] Science Fiction and Fantasy, Local Military Encounters Going South, World-Hopping, and Magitech Wank')

What if the world didn’t make sense?
I know what you’re thinking, “Oh, but the world already doesn’t make sense, have you heard the stuff going on in it right now?!”
But that’s not what I’m talking about. I’m talking about the fact...
A little explanation is in order. I have written a novel; the aforementioned Welcome to Utopia.
UPDATE: It has been published. Link to get it is here.
[Or go on to Amazon and type in "Welcome to Utopia Alan Atkinson".]
UPDATE TO UPDATE: I've decided to remove the free copy in the lead-up...
Like... for men in black, for example.
Let's say a explosion/ alien invasion/ leaked documents/ sudden attack on new york occurred, and then the secret is out. It turns out that the government has been lying to the citizenry for years, keeping things secret, that are extremely important and...
Long ago, a monk named Wan embarked on a journey to discover the 'truth'. On his journey he learned many things, and complied this knowledge into a philosophy disguised as a pseudoreligion for fear of retaliation from the village in which he lived. Soon after his return, he was indeed banished...

Uncle Grubb's Mysterious Mansion

Soft, brown clouds trail from the tires as you drive the SUV and the attached trailer down the dirt road through the woods. It's a sunny August afternoon, but thick leaves overhead cast a gloom broken by only sporadic peeks of...

Been writing a story. Posted to SB and SV. It appears I won't be able to continue posting there, and this forum was recommended as a replacement.
