Welcome to c/writing!

This is a space for all kinds of discussion referring to writing. This could include the structure and style found in different types of writing, authors worth talking about, different genres, trends, etc.

This is also a space for users who wish to share their own writing for feedback. This could look like independently posting excerpts of poems/prose/plays or it could be replying to one of the writing prompt threads. Brainstorming and worldbuilding ideas are welcome too!

Ideally, this will be a community where we work together to become better writers and appreciators of writing in all its forms.

All that said, please note that Code of Conduct still applies here. Please apply content warnings where applicable and spoiler material that might be inappropriate.

If you happen to enjoy lib brainworms, the Mistborn saga from SandersonIndustries(TM) is something like this. But extremely lib.

The main character in Mistborn is literally the most special special person, tho.

I feel like the answer to this is more The Boys, where normies paramilitarize to confront Magical Corporate Fascists.

Alternatively, if you don't mind kid drama, The Rescuers Down Under or An American Tale. Or even just 101 Dalmatians.

Stories about little guys and underdogs standing up to old corrupt establishments.
