Well I think "writers" fits pretty well since it's a club for writers. Literature club could suggest that we're discussing existing literature & such, while Writers Club implies very clearly that we're a bunch of, well, writers. So I'd leave it as Writers Club.

and tbh, 'Literature Club' sounds way too formal for someone like me to be a part of.

I'll post it here if someone would like to see. I'm comfortable with sharing, I guess, but it is really cringey. Kind of.
And on the subject of the literature thing, NO DOKI DOKI LITERATURE CLUB. NO. Keep it writers' club.

On a side note, any Percy Jackson fans here? Maybe even Keeper of the Lost Cities? Because my friend writes Foster-Keefe fanfiction on their Wattpad, and we've started a collaborative Solangelo fanfic now. I'm just a little curious to see if anyone reads those books.

I've never read Percy Jackson, but I know a former classmate of mine did/does read them, does that count?
@everyone
Okay so pretty much, I got an idea for a story but I suck at plot, setting, character development etc. & so far I only got the main idea of the story done.
Does anyone want to collaborate with me to write it? I'll post the main idea I got so far in a spoiler. Some things can be changed if there's a good reason.

Main idea
The main idea is to focus on two characters, one being the protagonist and one the antagonist, while the point of view changes from time to time.
The point is to make the reader struggle on who to side with. The protagonist will have their reasons for doing what-ever they're doing, including fighting the antagonist and trying to prevent them from doing what-ever they plan to. However, the (probably very few) times when the point of view is switched to the antagonist of the story, the reader gains insight into what the antagonist is planning, what their reasoning is and hopefully to make the reader feel sympathy for the antagonist, which then, as I said, leads to the reader struggling who to side with.
All the time that the protagonist and "hero" of the story is in the spotlight, the reader will be shown their flaws, but also their good sides, and again, their reasoning for their actions.
Pretty much, the story is supposed to have no clearly "good" or "bad" side, but rather, draw a blurry line on what is good and what is bad, make it clear that the opinion on what's good or bad is very subjective and that everyone has a reason to act the way they do. There will most likely be a third person who will be like the reader, seeing both sides of the medal and being unsure who to side with. I'm unsure about that third main though.

Gentle reminder that the contest ends this sunday! Currently, I already have the winner already picked out from the entries submitted, but more could always change that!

Ayy, welcome! uvu
@everyone
So smol Arwen gave me a small idea, or rather reminded me of an idea that I didn't get to write down yet.
I'm unsure if I should actually write it, so I'd like some feedback if you guys would be interested in it, since it's rather. Uhm. "Dark", to say the least.
It's basically about a depressed & suicidal boy, and nobody really wants to have anything to do with him. The story would be telling his story, he finds a friend and everything seems to get better, until the key event, which is the death of his mother and little brother. He thinks about suicide. However, that friend stops him and promises him that everything will get better. And there'll be another event which would be the climax and won't be spoiled yet. :^
I am unsure if it'd be a long-ish story in one piece, or if I'll divide it into chapters if I decide to write it.

A girl dies 3 days earlier than the
date she is fated. She claims that her life should be refunded and
demanded the reaper not to take her soul. The reaper found her
extremely annoying so he give her a chance to be alive-- to feed
upon negative emotions humans make. Upon hearing this she
immediately aggreed.
She must only feed on one human's emotions and a twist-- she can't choose. The reaper gave her a person who is extremely lighthearted. Opposite to what she hoped for. She does everything to make him feel negative emorions from time to time, greed, anger, and sorrow.

@Inno
Curiosity got me, if there was a second place, which story would be the 2nd?
@everyone
Prepare yourself for a very depresso short story as a fan fiction (? Sort of) for a private RP Inno started :^ Will probs be coming tomorrow.

Stars, I didn't even think about it. Probably the Mance fanfiction? But I'm incredibly biased because Mals is my baby-
Also,, //sigh// it's always my stories that get the depressing fanfiction

I'm sorry :")
@everyone
It might take a bit longer for me to finish the story, I got the last scenes written down but I'm really unsatisfied with it, so I want to work on it a little more. The struggle of being a perfectionist. :")
"Enjoy" some random late night poetry in the meantime.
Tossing and turning.
My thoughts whirling around in my head
When night crawls in.
I open my mouth
Speaking out loud
What keeps me awake through stormy night
What troubles my soul
What troubles my heart.
And finally
My mind's at rest.
Yep, that's it. Written at 3 am. Late Night poetry. Good night.
