As Easter has come by to melt away the final vestiges of a long, cold winter (at least up in these parts where I live) it feels like a good time to bring up the mythology of witches. Witches have a central role in the Easter that we celebrate here ...
Fantastic Bestiary 5: Witches
Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, April 24, 2022FEATURED COMIC --> Up the Pyramid
kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, April 20, 2022
The road to self-actualization is filled with arduous challenges and obstacles. The climb is high and many have previously attempted the climb with little success. The journey to the tip of the pyramid is the goal, once food, shelter, clothing, and relationships become an after-thought. Daily interactions expose the fragility ...

The Twist

I remember the first time I watched The Others in the cinema. (how I miss going there…)
It was an awesome experience. Not only because the horror/thriller film was excellently shot with really good actors, but because it played with shadows and your mind in an elegant but unforgiving ...

There are few days more appropriate than today to write about Love as a topic. Aphrodite herself, the goddess of love, fell in love with the beautiful Adonis, before his ill-fated day when he encountered the wild boars.
Love comes in many ...
Being Unsure of the Ending
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Feb. 5, 2022
Unless you're winging it 100%, chances are that you have an ending in mind for your story. Perhaps you even have the entire ending scene plotted out in your mind, the layouts ready, even some of the lines or expressions your characters will say and have.

Horror, and the Broken
Banes at 12:00AM, Oct. 14, 2021
I'm wounded but you can't see it!
A lot of stories involve a wounded and/or flawed character. It's a staple of strong storytelling; a character has some kind of pain or wound to overcome, and that's the inner journey they take along with whatever outward ...
