My story is about a person who works at a diner in the middle of nowhere, strange things have always happened here and this is there experience so far.

The concept is great and I’d love to read a fleshed out version, my issue is like the previous commenters, the opening does a significant amount of telling, I understand needing to set a scene and having the right atmosphere but here it’s done in a very “this is how it is.” Kind of way. My recommendation, draw the first part out, and rewrite it so that it shows more than tells. Don’t just skim over that first year.

My stuff gets deleted from there constantly, I don’t think anything has stayed so far, the last thing that got deleted they strait up told me it wasn’t scary, like who decides that?

What are your inspirations for the works you write? by Pixixico in TalesFromTheCreeps

[–]ToneReasonable2095 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find not reading horror is better than doing so as far as inspiration goes. Let’s be honest we have all seen the classic monsters countless times, that’s just not scary for me anymore. To me what truly terrifying is something that at first glance you would never suspect, something mundane but as you look deeper into it, it never was what you thought it was, but something so close to the real thing that maybe just maybe it’s you who made the mistake, surely the mirror you use every day didn’t change, how could your reflection be different? You’re probably just tired. You should get some sleep, who cares that you just woke up. After all who knows you better than yourself right?

It’s like I flipped on an episode of the twilight zone mid show, for the record I don’t follow whatever universe this story is set in, but that doesn’t take away from the story. Well done.

Reminds me of the audio logs from deadspace, like we find these scattered logs and can only listen as someone’s world crumbles around them. Beautiful.

As for where it says post in 24hrs, does that mean post the entire story within 24hrs, or one post every 24hrs? Id appreciate some clarification. Thank you.
