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.

N: Not war for war's sake. Do we not serve the Tetrahedron? Is it not a good god, who wants only the good of all its creatures? And is not peace the greatest good for the leaving?
B: A god of Beauty would grant its gifts to sculptors. A god of plenty would grant them to those who go fishing. But the Tetrahedron grants the power of Tetrahedrokinesis only to the warriors that fight in its name. What kind of God does that make it?
N: But... The Tetrahedron is all good! The reason why we must fight is that the Cube is corrupting the world! Once good prevails, there will be peace!
B: You know nothing of peace. Follow me.
*They leave Hypermeridiopolis
N: How far will we walk?
B: Until you can no longer see anything in any direction that isn't ice,
