While <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/WritersCoffeeClub" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WritersCoffeeClub</a> seems to be a bit disbanding to me at the moment with a rarely seen or interacting new admin (which some people aren't happy about, which is why I feel it's disbanding).

C. R. Collins<a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/ScribesAndMakers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScribesAndMakers</a> April 21 Do you create for a certain niche or do you hope to have as broad an appeal as possible?I write stories I like to read, which tend to be "non-standard." For example, I hate love triangles, so the main society in my world is polyamorous. I like examining cultural norms by presenting alternatives, & I present non-human lifeforms as more than scenery--important beings in their own right. My niche would be nature lovers & those who like to think outside our boxes.

It's not like I'm raking in buckets of cash from my books, for example. But it's always fun when I see that someone enjoyed what I wrote.

Sarah J Hoodlet<a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/ScribesAndMakers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScribesAndMakers</a> 21Apr—Do you create for a certain niche or do you hope to have as broad an appeal as possible?I create stories I want to read, so it's niche in that regard. However, I know others enjoy my kind of stories, so in other ways it's broad.Honestly, I'm not sure having "as broad an appeal as possible" is a good thing. It's impossible to please everyone, and trying to do so makes stories so...generic. I'd rather write (and read) a somewhat niche story in a broader genre I enjoy.

GaH Learner21. Do you create for a certain niche or do you hope to have as broad an appeal as possible?I write what appeals to me, to get these people out of my head and onto the page. What I like usually isn't what most others like. That's the niche. <a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/ScribesAndMakers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScribesAndMakers</a> <a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/GL425" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GL425</a>

Strange Seawolf 🕒 CET<a href="https://mindly.social/tags/ScribesAndMakers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScribesAndMakers</a> 04/21—Do you create for a certain niche or do you hope to have as broad an appeal as possible?Well, I am a pretty niche person so I think writing for a big audience wouldn't happen, anyway. I can't escape my brain. Of course the idea that it appeals to mainstream sounds nice and appealing and I can certainly see <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/HeraldPetrel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HeraldPetrel</a> as a series on a streaming service but I don't think it will happen. I am happy to see that for those people who have read Herald Petrel it meant something. Perhaps because it creates a set of comfort characters that speak to people with <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/trauma" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#trauma</a> and <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/grief" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#grief</a> as a background, perhaps because it dares to have likable characters, perhaps because the dead don't pile up for no reason at all, I don't know. I just know that if one reader says that they found comfort in reading it, it means the whole effort was worth it. And some said so, so it is worth that many times.

Do you create for a certain niche or do you hope to have as broad an appeal as possible?I write for me, first and foremost, because I can't not write. It's who I am. I write even when the only reader is me. That is a niche too, I suppose.

Do you create for a certain niche or do you hope to have as broad an appeal as possible?My works may look like genre stuff, but I constantly manage to "sabotage" content the way it becomes aimed for a wider, more informed audience. End result: zero appeal to broad AND that original niche audience. 😅 <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#books</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/comics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#comics</a>

John Hartley WriterA while ago I wrote a collection of short stories, bundled together as ‘The Book of Apologies’. I’m going to publish them on my blog.

Do you create for a certain niche or do you hope to have as broad an appeal as possible?I write for myself, first of all.Of course, I hope for many readers, and I hope that the topics of my stories appeal to many. But I'm not twisting my stories to fit everyone.My Wolf stories are not spicy and alphas are evil. My magic wielders are not ambitious (well, Moon might be). My dragons are basically people.<a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/WritingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WritingCommunity</a>

Do you create for a certain niche or do you hope to have as broad an appeal as possible?I create mostly for myself. Sometimes, that feels like a niche, and sometimes, it feels very mainstream.

RS, Author, Novelist, ProsaistThis post is to announce to all those who knew about my web-novel Mars Needed Women, who may have boosted or linked to it, that I have deleted the posts from Mastodon. I am heavily into revising it for publication.To prevent 404ing, I've left only the jacket blurb post of March 1st. As best I can remember, that's the only link I gave out. I hope so. I'm tagging hashtags to which I posted links to the novel this one time to prevent confusion. You are welcome to PM me.<a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/pennedpossibilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pennedpossibilities</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/engenderedWriting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#engenderedWriting</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writerscoffeeclub" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#writerscoffeeclub</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/wordweavers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wordweavers</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/scribesandmakers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#scribesandmakers</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writever" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#writever</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writephant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#writephant</a> TL;DRThe story was published daily in March 2024 as part of a <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Writever" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Writever</a> challenge, and I completed all 31 chapters one a day using all 31 Women's Rights prompts, managing to complete the last chapter and post it only 20 minutes into April 1st. The story was definitely beta, with a plot hole and janky science and a few character boo-boos, but I like the result. I have since greatly revised the story and added plenty of material. Writing content daily to fit it into a toot-length that worked out to 750-800 words max forced compromises. I plan to publish the novel in book form. As such, I have deleted the original free-to-read version. When I've sold or published the novel, I'll be sure to inform all my followers.If you were part way through the story, PM me.For you that read it, and for those who favorited chapters, Thank you.<a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/BoostingIsSharing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BoostingIsSharing</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#writer</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#author</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/sf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sf</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writersOfMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#writersOfMastodon</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/writingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#writingCommunity</a>

Steve DeGroof 📚🛸I'm repurposing a USB endoscope I had sitting around. It's now a workbench microscope, strapped to a 3D-printed arm. I'm hoping this will reduce some eye strain from messing with all these fiddly little bits and pieces. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/3dPrinting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#3dPrinting</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/3dDesign" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#3dDesign</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#electronics</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ScribesAndMakers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScribesAndMakers</a>

Sean Patrick<a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/ScribesAndMakers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScribesAndMakers</a> 4/20 Is there a movie that inspires your creative work?It's hard to overestimate the impact The Matrix had on me. I'm not sure if it comes through in my writing, but certainly in my worldview. Ex Machina is another one that really affected me. I'm surprised Ex Machina didn't have a stronger cultural impact than it did, because in my mind it's almost a perfect movie about AI and humanity's relationship to it.

Kurt Hohmann<a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/ScribesAndMakers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScribesAndMakers</a> 20 Is there a movie that inspires your creative work?I'm not much of a movie person, but one film comes to mind that had a profound impact on my storytelling from way back in 1979: Alien.Not only do I think it to be *the* best horror film, it also affected the way I've considered villains ever since. The xenomorph is immediately terrifying, but the Weyland Corporation is the greater villain, putting profit above, well, everybody and everything.Huh. And here we are...

Christina<a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/ScribesAndMakers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScribesAndMakers</a> Have movies influenced my creativity?Some visual media, like Star Trek, which exemplifies my own sort of utopian beliefs have played a part (can't really deny this when one of my books is literally titled "The Needs of the Many"). But more often, books and games have had an influence.

GaH Learner20. Is there a movie that inspires your creative work?Fantasy: The Peter Jackson Tolkien movies, yes, all six of them. I loved the visuals. Also, ghastly as they looked and behaved, the movies made Orcs and Goblins people to me, horrible people, but still people with their own agendas. I also loved how the dwarves deviated from the 'fairy tale' look. What's missing is the magical feel that's subtly present in the books. SF: many, especially StarTrek and The Martian.<a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/ScribesAndMakers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ScribesAndMakers</a> <a href="https://writing.exchange/tags/GL425" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GL425</a>
