Welcome to /s/!
This board is dedicated to collaboratively spinning yarns - that is, telling /s/tories to and with your fellow anons. Every thread is a story waiting for you to tell it, and the OP is the primary author. The OP decides just how much input, if any, other anons may have in their story; However, the best of them will happily include others in the creative process.
(You) can tell stories in text, images, audio, video, or some combination of them all. The use of drawfaggotry and webmfaggotry are strongly encouraged! To good writefags, I say welcome to the board; I hope you write many compelling tales. To those who know or believe that they are bad writefags, take /s/ as an opportunity to improve in the furnace of imageboard culture.
My advice to all aspiring writefags as BO and a recovering writelet myself is this: Read lots of books/scripts by good authors/screenwriters, and PRACTICE. Write something no matter how bad it is, get it critiqued by somebody, and then keep writing. Even people with no writing experience can provide valuable insight.
There are only 3 rules on this board (sans global rules):
1. Be Original
This does not mean you can’t put a unique spin on an already existing story; It means you can’t copy-paste something and pretend you wrote it.
2. Romance > Smut
/s/ is a SFW board. Romance is allowed and even encouraged if you’re capable of writing it, but this is not the place for smut. If you can't tell the difference between the two, don't try to write it at all.
3. Dice == No Dice
Dice rolling is fun and can make for good stories, but so can good storytelling all on its own. I leave it to the discretion of the OPs, just don't use it as a crutch.

Writing Prompt Thread
Are you a writelet with no creativity? Are you a writefag that wants to compose something short and sweet? You've found the right thread. Use this website (or any other like it) to pick a writing prompt at random:
https://thestoryshack.com/tools/writing-prompt-generator/
Follow the generated prompt and post what you create for critique and perhaps compliments. Nobody worth a hoot cares if it's terrible; what matters is that (you) write it. Proficiency in anything worth doing requires practice, anons. If you prefer, (you) may also write a prompt for your personal use or for other anons to take a crack at.
Remember to have fun!

Vampire: the Masquerade
A quest thread for vamp da maskyfing.
This is a world of darkness.
It’s a world much like our own. It has the same streets and the same television programs. But in this world, the creepy house down the street really is haunted. The mysterious murders that look like an animal attack were actually done by werewolves.
And there are vampires.
You have been chosen to become one of the undead, to join one of their “clans” as a newly created (or Embraced) vampire. One clan is the Gangrel, bestial vampires that can turn into beasts. Another is the Malkavians, seers and madmen all. And there are the Toreador, artists and dilettantes who value their ties to humanity.
Which kind of vampire will you be?

<Gangrel
<Malkavian
<Toreador

/s/ Banner Thread
Want to flex your creative muscles without becoming a /s/toryteller just yet? Create a banner for the board! Remember that traditional banner sizing is 300x100.
Good ideas for banners include writing cliches, famous authors/screenwriters/playwrights, quotes from the works of said famous folks, etc.

A Meme Is Worth 10,000 words
This is the designated effortposting thread for all OC memes. Memes are just another form of storytelling, after all! Proven reposts and pornographic memes will be deleted.
Have fun!
