America can often seem overwhelming to a Hungarian like me, but the members of this website welcomed me and generously supported my creative efforts with their non-judgmental feedback and advice. I am so grateful to Mr. Coppola for providing this international forum and workshop!
I find Zoetrope essential for furthering craft. There's a nook or cranny here for everything.
It's impossible to overstate the importance of the Zoetrope Virtual Studios in my growth as a writer. I joined in 2000 as a complete novice. I would not still be writing today if it were not for the kind mentorship and encouragement of the talented and accomplished writers on this site. I owe so much to Zoetrope. It continues to be an excellent space for creativity and connection with other artists. Many thanks to Francis Ford Coppola and everyone involved.
One of my greatest pleasures in workshopping on Zoetrope has been recognizing talent in others, encouraging them and seeing them succeed.
I first came to Zoetrope because after a twenty-five year hiatus, I wanted to be a writer again. Today, not only am I a far better writer than I ever expected, but have also been a fiction editor/anthologist and I treasure a dear group of writer friends who live all over the world.
2000: Joined as an upstart writing in his second language.
2016: A publisher of a literary magazine, a co-editor of literary anthologies, the author of a novel with a major NYC publisher, the author of a hundred plus published stories on 3 continents, and a judge of literary contests.
Thank you, my fellow writers and critics.
When I first became a Zoetrouper, in the summer of '98, the woman sitting across the table was living 6,200 miles away. We wrote a screenplay together, then a book, and now she's my wife. 22 of the best years of my life! [I'm contractually obligated to say that.] ;-) Other members have encouraged and helped me to publish other books, too. I've found several collaborators here, and even some trusty employees, so FFC's workshops have been the source of many wonderful things.
Twenty-one years ago, I found Zoetrope and boy was I lucky. Francis Ford Coppola gave us a site like no other. With Zoetrope great writers criticized my stuff and I paid attention to great benefit. My writing leapt forward with their help and not only that I now have friends worldwide. There is no better writing site anywhere and I believe Zoetrope beats many a university writing program and it costs you nothing. Join Zoetrope and reap the benefits of interacting with folk who know what they are doing. You cannot buy what you'll gain from this site and the people you'll meet. Try it, stick with it, and your writing will soar.
Six novels, a book of short stories, and five poetry books.
Sofia Coppola produced Andrew Durham's debut feature, with Geena Davis and Adam Lambert also in the ensemble cast.
Coda star Emilia Jones and Scoot McNairy have nabbed lead roles in producer Sofia Coppola’s Fairyland adaptation for American Zoetrope, with director Andrew Durham having just wrapped production on his debut feature.

Geena Davis, Adam Lambert, Cody Fern, Bella Murphy and newcomer Nessa Dougherty round out the cast for the movie adaptation. Veteran fashion and commercial photographer Durham penned the feature, which he directed and produced along with Coppola, Megan Carlson, Siena Oberman, Greg Lauritano and Laure Sudreau.

I wish I liked Neil Gaiman's writing style
If I want to use a metaphor from the 1884 book Flatland in my fictional novel, but meanwhile my book is set on an alien planet so I can't cite it in the story without breaking the fourth wall, how can I properly cite it? For that matter, are such metaphors of such age public domain?
If I feel like my final draft is solid but still not as good as professional published authors. Does that mean it’s not ready to submit? I know I need to submit my best to an agent, but how much do you rely on an editor to take you from good to professional?
How early should new writers introduce the Inciting Incident?
Avoid or defend Portal Fantasy in my query letter
Usually try to have a plan, but is Earth is MESSED up y'all!
I feel like there’s a backstory to “This is how I fight my baddies.” Story time.
For under $1000, should I buy a new Tama Superstar or a used “excellent condition” Tama Starclassic? It takes waiting but I saw a used Starclassic come up on GC before someone grabbed it. Which would you buy?
Haven’t read American Gods, but in Ocean at the End of the Lane he perfectly took on the voice of the 12 year old (I think that was his age) narrator. You could feel the contrast when he switched POVs to his adult self and the voice changed. I haven’t read American Gods but I started watching the show and I didn’t like it. Maybe his niche is fairy tails that adults have fun reading.
It would help to know the metaphor to know whether it's in common use.

I call it a metaphor but I should have said analogy, which is why I’m more concerned with citing the concept than the words. It was made popular by Carl Sagan. Here’s a video clip of him describing it. If you’re into astronomy it’s a beautiful analogy: https://youtu.be/N0WjV6MmCyM
Rudy Rucker does a great and humourous job of explaining the analogy in Spaceland . I suggest you give it a read, but the bottom line is the concept of a fourth dimension and its use in SF is commonplace.
I suspect an alien race with its own tradition in science and cosmology would have a similar way of explaining it.
I've heard that publishers don't like Portal Fantasy because it's been overdone, the protagonist could be avoiding his real world problems and the conflicts exist in a world that the protagonist can just leave. In my story, the protagonist enters the portal to save his brother. If he left that portal-world, his brother would still be gone. In this way it's more like Epic Fantasy, and the portal is just a tool to start his epic quest. Also, any issues he has with the real world is Man Vs Self, so he takes them with him into the portal and will resolve them using non-fantastical means. I'm worried if I say this is Epic Fantasy in the query letter then the publisher will see through it the moment I mention a portal. If I defend it, like I am in this post, then the publisher will grow tired of my excuses and reject it. How do I save this?
Just make it clear in your letter that those supposed issues (I've never heard an agent or editor saying those things, but I haven't researched it explicitly either I guess) aren't present in your story. You should be making the central question and stakes clear anyway, and those should make it clear to the recipient that you've already addressed the problem.
Perfect. Thanks! Glad to hear you haven't heard an agent say those things. Hopefully I'm just googling too much and overthinking things.
Just to say upfront that I don't work in publishing (or know people who do) so this is an entirely personal view (I mention this because apparently some publishers do visit this subreddit).
I've heard that publishers don't like Portal Fantasy because it's been overdone,
Unless you actually know editors or move in those circles, my personal feeling is that it would be a really bad idea to constantly try and second guess what "they" think.
Like, where did you hear that about Portal Fantasy? And even if it was true once, what makes you think it's true now?
Another thing is that while there clearly are trends, do all publishers really follow the same hard line on such things? Maybe, but it seems hard to believe to me.
Let's say the reason they reject your story is solely on the grounds that it's a Portal Fantasy, and no other reasons, the best thing to do in my view is to literally save it.
Put it on ice, as it were, as I can't believe that if right now there's a reluctance to look at Portal Fantasy because it's overdone, in a few years' time that'll no longer apply.
But in short - don't overthink it just submit and see what happens, but ...
... I'd avoid trying to second guess them - don't put words in their mouth.
Maybe just concede that there are many Portal Fantasies already out there, but ... etc.
That did it. The dot broke me. I’m done.
