The Writer's Café

Chapter one of my story is up! Please go check it out and give some feedback in the thread provided for that:) It's called Power Misplaced
 
I need some opinions. Currently I'm stuck with writers block, and have slowly given up on my book, U-Verse, where four friends are trapped in a game that takes them out of real life and puts them in the game itself..
So I was thinking, what does a book about a flat world sound like? Would you guys actually at least think about reading it? :p
Thanks!

^ I think the book you were working on has a more viable plot and would be easier to break writers block with

The other plot sounds quite vague atm but I think that it could work and I would certainly give it a read to see what I think.
 
A story about people in a flat world would be very boring. People would only be able to see a single line, since they would be compressed into a 2D form. To better explain this:

As 3D beings, we can see all of a 2D shape. So we can see every single side of a flat square, circle, triangle, etc. However, we cannot see all sides of a 3D shape: we cannot see every part of our phones or computers at once, for example. If we were in a 2D world, we would only be able to see part of any other 2D shape, or a 1D view. This means that we would only see lines of varying lengths and colors, but everything would be infinitely thin and it would be very hard to see much at all.

It would also be incredibly different to expel waste but I won't even try to get into that.
 
Also, for those interested, I have decided to put one part up for Isen today. Expect it in about three hours - those of you who know me know how efficient I am.
 
Ok; I'll see it when you post it two days from now.

Also, I think he means a world... Like Davy Jone's Locker, or in Assassin's Creed's computer thing. You're you, 3D, but the world is just a completely flat landscape.

It would be interesting, but you would have to make something that would block your eyesight, like heavy fog.
But you would probably get Writer's Block very quickly, as a story with no landscape has no... Surprises.
 
I think Phoenix is onto me. I'm afraid I can't actually do anything today, a few interesting things have come up.

It will be there eventually!
