My Character Keeps Giving Exposition Dumps!!! See original โ
They say that when you really get good at writing, your characters write themselves, but I actually feel like my character is holding me back. You see, I have gotten this crazy idea to try to be clever and introduce plot elements into the world in a way that feels both natural and where the audience can follow. But I have this one character who, every time before I can introduce plot elements natu...
Nancy Drew in Europe See original โ
So I know the first few books of Nancy Drew are in the Public Domain in the U.S., but I was wondering what her status is in Europe. According to Wikipedia, the Ghost writer of the earliest Nancy Drew books, Mildred Wirt/Benson lived until 2002, meaning in countries with life + 70 years, none of the early Nancy Drew books would be Public Domain until 2073. But it seems that many countries in Europe...

Nancy Drew as a Griffin See original โ
Now that Nancy Drew is Public Domain in the U.S., a thought occured to me yesterday, what if I made Nancy Drew the main character of this griffin book I've been thinking of writing. I've been thinking about for awhile creating a book of some Griffins at a University tracking down some stolen Lightning Capturing Equipment, which they use for studying the various properties of lightning, which leads...
Dragon Fight! See original โ
Everyone knows dragons are magnificent and noble creatures, beyond the fault of indignity in near everyway possible; their scales impervious to all forms of damage. While dragons are not immune to pain, their scales absorb practically all the force of impact, leaving them virtually unharmed, even if their nerves remain receptive of the sensation. Because of this, a dragon can never be wounded, onl...

Chikn Nuggit Meets Hello Kitty! (Story) See original โ
These are the two chapters I've written so far, planning on more in the future :D **CHAPTER 1: CHIKN SUMMONS CUTENESS** "So if you're the Demigod of Chaos, can you summon whatever you want?" Onyn Ring asked. Chikn nodded, "Anything I want." Onyn Ring looked at Chikn, fascination in his eyes. "Show me." "Okay, I summon... Somethingย **cute**!" There was a flash of blinding light, like a lightning s...

My Mom told me to post this as she's been watching this subreddit for awhile, but she doesn't have a reddit account and I do.

The Tale of Benny Badger - Audiobook See original โ
So I recently started working as a salad person on the North Slope of Alaska. While I'm on rotation days can be long. So I thought it'd be fun to take the time and listen to Audiobooks of books in the Public Domain while I work sometimes, while I'm spending time on long winded tasks where I don't have to be in and out of the room for awhile, and just listen while I cut the fruit or something for a...
The worst part about Indie Animation See original โ
You know what the absolute worst thing about Indie Animation is? Okay, I'm on YouTube, looking at my playlist for Indie-Animation projects I want to watch.

Chikn Gets an Ouchie See original โ
"And Catch!" Hawt Saus said mockingly, tossing the bone off the screen. "Yes, yes!" Chikn panted, chasing after it, and arriving back a moment later, dropping the bone at Hawt Saus' feet. Hmm, apparently Chikn didn't get the hint. "And Fetch!" Hawt Saus said, picking it up and tossing it again. Chikn once again dashed after it and dropped it before Hawt Saus. Hawt Saus picked up the bone and looke...

Anybody have any self-published animal books to recommend to me? See original โ
I'm about to make an Amazon Order, and thought it might be fun to see if anybody had self-published any books with an animal POV I can look at (specifically printed versions). Not going to make any promises, but I'm definitely up to checking them out.

Post to express your love for your "Special" Place (Discussion) See original โ
So we know our Special Place is Special, but what is so special about it, what makes us love to have it, love to share it with our partner (if we have one), is it the way it looks? Is it funny? The self-consciousness it gives us, knowing we exist with such a Thing? The way it makes us unique from certain others, sometimes even our closest partners if that is one's type? They can tease us and make ...
Will She Curse While She's in Labor (Story by Me) - Part 2 See original โ
Cynthia tried to take deep breaths as she waited outside in the clinicโs waiting area to be admitted inside her laying room. Labor hadnโt started yet, but she could tell from the unsettling stirring in her stomach that it was getting close; she had got here as early as she could so she could be ready when it started. It was a quiet day in the labor ward and perhaps only one other dragon was la...

...They think it's the silliest thing imaginable, and they get to tease you all night for having such a hilarious workabout. How do you hope they are teasing you, and what do you hope they're telling you to make you feel self-conscious (in a good way) about how amusing your workabouts are?
Dragons getting hit in the silly place See original โ
Dragons are magnificent and noble creatures, but I like to think of them as having some similar traits to humans, including some of the more embarrassing ones. There is nothing more amusing than seeing such a dignified creature scrunched up on the ground moaning because he was accidentally hit in his silly place. And then all the girl dragons get to laugh because they know it won't happen to them ...

They are plain and simply plushies, plushies for girl...

I've always wanted to join the film industry from a very young age, and have always had a special love for animation.

At my job, I've been able to save up a decent...

Question about country of origin See original โ
I've been seeing comments saying that Tintin is not actually going to be Public Domain in the U.S. in 2025 due to it not being Public Domain in Belgium which is it's country of origin and the U.S. being a signatory on the Berne Convention means that it's not eligible for Public Domain in the U.S. as long as it's not Public Domain in its country of origin. Is this in fact the case? As I've understo...

Tintin is becoming Public Domain, but how much? See original โ
So, as we all know, Tintin is becoming Public Domain in 2025, but how much. I know his journey to the land of the Soviets was serialized between 1929 and 1930, making approximately half of the story Public Domain next year. But where exactly is the cut off? In current releases, it seems everything is marketed at one volume that at least with what I've found, I have no way of telling which parts of...

Mickey, Oswald, and Minnie stumbled through the snow of the desolate peaks, following the map closely, but growing colder and colder as they went. โWe need to stop for the night,โ Minnie called out finally. Of course itโd be Minnie who surrendered to the elements first. Not very progressive if you ask me. 1928 girls, *sigh*โฆ But perhaps she was the more sensible one, because Oswald and Mic...

But Mickey was too shock-still in horror at the prรฉjร vu that stood before him, he couldnโt do anything. The Mickey in the mirror licked his lips in appetization. He began to make his way toward them, his body crackly turning in its walk until it wa...

Mickey looked at the rabbit before him; did he know this guy? He felt like he should, but he wasnโt sure. Oswald looked at Mickey cautiously, โYou should come with me.โ Mickey looked around at the deserted town.

I don't want to jump to conclusions or anything, but it just seems like every time I post a video that gets more views than normal, the views on my following few videos plummet.

You may have heard of the theory that goes something like this, that if you had an infinite amount of monkeys randomly pounding on an infinite amount of keyboards, most the content they come up with would be junk, but somewhere in there you might have Shakespeare.

This isn't fully edited, so it's not 100% perfect yet, but I just wanted to share a bit of the story I've been working on to give a basic idea what I'm doing here: **CHAPTER 3** As Oswald led Mickey and Minnie through the library, he browsed the titles of public domain books, looking for the one he was looking for.

So we all know that in the 1964 Rudolph cartoon, Donner is stated to be the parent of Rudolph, but in the 1939 book, Rudolph's parents are never actually mentioned (it even never implies Rudolph came from the North Pole in the first place).

Was Minnie Mouse ever actually refered to by name in 1928 See original โ
I know that Minnie Mouse appears in the 1928 Mickey Mouse cartoons, but was she ever referred to by name in any of them or any promotional material?
