I was planning on making a small, clearnet IB containing several Self Improvement boards, including this one. How interested would you be in moving there?
Yes please, julay is going down in flames sadly.

Seeking To Write My Own Stories Scholar 09/17/2019 (Tue) 15:53:59 No.16 [Reply]
Newfag here.

I'm wanting to get into writing fiction and even fanfiction as a hobby, but I also want to put my own works on PDF, particularly the original stuff.

Any tips on how to convert Word documents to PDF's? Are there any free or open-source PDF maker programs out there?

Pic unrelated.

Microsoft word allows you to save your documents as pdfs.
Print as pdf.

>>113 appreciated bro

You didn't even post a link to the artist's pixiv. He puts out more maids on skateboards fairly regularly. https://www.pixiv.net/en/users/3069527

Writing Tips Scholar 10/12/2019 (Sat) 18:52:19 No.55 [Reply]
I have written some short tales back in high school, but i have always had troubles doing more "grounded" works, like essays. Do you have any schematics from which to develop the main ideas? Also exercises with the same purpose as free writing would be appreciated.
These skills are becoming ever more important. From >>>/sw/ continuing abandoned endeavors to readers essaying about neat books buried/panned being deemed anti-social for whatever reason by established entities: it seems like it's gonna get harder to absorb audiences from more normalfag pools with how walled the popular centralized and decentralized social media has become. On that 'spreading the prose' note I read one very fun book by some guy posting pages and copypasting passages. The old 'beating the hump' and reading the content of interest while blundering into and dealing with problems when attempting to write seems like a good enough method for me: I find it tough as nails but I need to develop the discipline and the amount of poisoned wells is great enough to play it safe.

Ender's game is a good book. It has many very good life lessons in it. PS: it has many prequels and sequels but don't read them, you'll get the point just by reading this book. book is attached.

Here's one, I figured that Read or Die would be appropriate for a banner given the subject matter of this board.

A thread for the science of languages and their underlying structures. This is NOT for language learning materials.

You can easily use /lang/ for those books, I think they have a better collection
