RE:E-Book Question
Thank you so much for telling me about Sweek. They sound promising even though they're strictly in Europe. I finally decided I won't risk renaming the story and just have the Cleric delete it. I have other sites such as facebook where it's still visible for the public to see although it's in blog form rather than book form. I already asked these questions about renaming a story to Draft2Digital and it still against their specific rules.

Wondering
I hate to bother you again, but I was just wondering if every Administrator has to be in agreement for a story to be deleted.

Mmpratt99 deviantart (talk) 19:57, February 20, 2018 (UTC)

Cherries are grapes in disguise! They're just painted red. I'm not crazy, I swear!
Thanks! I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Very excited. Hope life is treatin you well Banning.

RE: Depends
Thank you for answering my question about the admin team here. I just wondered if what if there's a story like mine that the author is requesting a deletion due a particular e-book publishing rule and not due to grammatical or punctuation issues? Do they still have to come together and see if this deletion should get the go-ahead, or can they decide to keep the story because it's too good to be deleted?

Mmpratt99 deviantart (talk) 00:28, February 21, 2018 (UTC)

RE:Deletions
I think Cleric might be too busy at the moment to take my request. Maybe you could do it. I really need to get this thing taken care off if I'm going to get this story out in e-book form and perhaps a wider audience. I'll probably have to get more things deleted in the near future, but maybe that won't happen if I change the stories completely to the point where they're acceptable for e-publishing. I really don't know, I'm hoping it won't get to the point where I take down the entire list.

RE3: Deletions
Thank you. I really hope this works out.

RE: Done
Yes, it's really a downer having to delete one of your stories all because of some publisher objection of free public access. Right now I'm waiting for Draft2Digital's reply to my message of this deletion. Hopefully, they can convince their ventors to unblocked distribution of this book. If not I'll probably have to go and get my Kindle account reopen or contact Sweek. Mmpratt99 deviantart (talk) 03:50, February 21, 2018 (UTC)

Mmpratt99 deviantart (talk) 02:43, February 21, 2018 (UTC)

RE:Options are there
Thank you so much for showing me these options. I just email to Sweek, asking them if they're willing to help me promote my story in e-book form, and if they required a fee for an account. I will also try to use my Twitter to get the word out more.

Mmpratt99 deviantart (talk) 18:36, February 21, 2018 (UTC)

Book Status
Hey Banningk. I just got word from Draft2Digital saying that they have removed the flags that were preventing this story from being published, and I should see the book up on the various vendors later today or tomorrow. Also I really appreciate your help and advice on these publishing matters. Thank you again.

Question About Twitter
I was wondering--do I ask a new person I'm following if I could post my twitter announcement on their page?

Mmpratt99 deviantart (talk) 03:43, February 22, 2018 (UTC)

RE: Twitter
Should I message the person directly or use the Tweet To button?

Mmpratt99 deviantart (talk) 19:53, February 22, 2018 (UTC)


 * RE2twitter:

Alright, I followed your advice about changing my profile to look more professional. Also got rid of any mention of niche sites such as Creepypasta and Reddit. Step 7 is a bit more difficult though since I because I worry that something I am trying to say might come out wrong and I might sound stupid or accidentally offend someone. Mmpratt99 deviantart (talk) 04:04, February 24, 2018 (UTC)

Pew Pew, how do you do?
Hey, I'm not sure if you're still interested, but after the sequel Less Than Human I uploaded the third and final installment To Become God

Custom signature? pfft, as if I were that creative (talk) 21:02, February 24, 2018 (UTC) I'd be glad to review a story of yours for the trouble.

RE: Looks Great
Thank you greatly. I found your advice really useful and hopefully I can enough positive tweets going to a wide enough audience. I'm still figuring how to use Canva.com and I noticed that not all the designs are free though.

The JTK 2015 Art
Hey I'm not sure if this is old news or not but I was wondering who that "R.M" artist was that drew that sketch for the Jeff the Killer 2015 photo, but no amount of digging seemed to help. In case there's any confusion I'm refering to. This picture seems to have shown up here without a trace, but I guess it is kinda related to your story, so I'm unsure what the origins are.

Thanks,

RE:Canva
Alright, I'm following your latest advice and added all the narrators mentioned. Just retweeted some posts by Creeparoni as well as added a funny post from the Huffington post>Streaker crashes Olympic speedskating with a message for the world

Mmpratt99 deviantart (talk) 04:32, February 25, 2018 (UTC)

I think I've found em
Ever check out the Italian creepypasta wiki?? It took some digging but all signs point to some somebody named Michela Rinaldini. Check these out:

it.creepypasta.wikia.com/wiki/Blog_utente:Nah%27Kaal/Jeff_the_Killer_2015

it.creepypasta.wikia.com/wiki/Blog_utente:Nah%27Kaal/Contest_-_Fanart_del_remake_di_Jeff_the_Killer_(Concluso)

Their facebook page had a contest which I can't seem to find anymore, but it ended mid-january 2016 which was shortly after Jeff was written if I'm not mistaken. Apparently Michela won. Regardless if you even knew of this contest, "Rinaldini Michela" is the "RM" I was looking for, which is that mystery solved I guess.

It's kinda interesting to check out this wiki in general, assuming you aren't already familiar with it. Some real talented translators it seems and pretty lax rules about Pasta from what it seems -- they have both JtK's on the same page. If nothing else, it might be fun to see their responses to your story, lol. Most of the comments are a lot more nuanced than this English wiki tbh.

Signed,

RE:Speaking of Twitter
Thank you for pointing this error out. Right now I'm trying to fix it. So for no luck. I think it started when I changed my profile page and now twitter's no longer recognizing the link, which is puzzling because the link is working fine in Facebook.

Mmpratt99 deviantart (talk) 18:15, February 25, 2018 (UTC)

RE: Speaking of Twitter
I keep getting this message when I tried editing the twitter link--

"We're sorry, there was an error processing your request. Please try again later."

It might be a bug in the wiki Mmpratt99 deviantart (talk) 03:04, February 26, 2018 (UTC)

RE:This Might Help
It's finally working! Thank you so much! I'll have to go fix the links on my other site.

A sad update
I’m sorry to report that my mother passed away this afternoon. She appreciated all the well-wishes she received. I probably won’t be very active online for a while. Have a blessed day. Raidra (talk) 22:30, April 30, 2018 (UTC)

Stories by Authors on Wiki
Dude, What is this?!?

I looked at the wiki author page and when I scrolled down to the "K" section and saw that you were at 28 stories and I'm at 32. What gives? I am extremely disappointed.

However, one may argue that your stories are far superiors to mine and one of your stories is equal to two of mine when considering quality. Now its hard for me to argue against that logic, but regardless, whatever narrow lead I have, I shall cherish it while it lasts. LOL

So how have you been, buddy? I saw your name next to mine and thought I would say hello and mess with you a bit. LOL Derek KillaHawke1 (talk) 04:01, July 7, 2018 (UTC)

Author Category
Hey there! Aspiring Horror writer 100Masks here! So, Ive got these journals with Id say an estimate of over 100 original short horror stories. My friend told me to go to this site and post em here. After posting two stories i noticed you have CATEGORIES for authors. Id like to get approval to have my own, as i am going to post a TON when im out of work today at noon, and will have well over 20 by the end of the day. But dont worry it wont stop there. ;) I go by 100Masks, and this is my OC Masks for the name lol!

Also i noticed your stuff has been read on youtube, Congrats! I hope one day my Dreary Lane story, posted under an automatic profile unfortunately, will be read out loud. Well. Ive rambled enough. Pleasure to be a part of this community. Let me know if Ill be able to get an author link at about 2 PM Eastern Standard Time.

The Creepypasta wiki portrayed by Gordon Ramsay
You know how people have videos such as "Horror Movies Portrayed by SpongeBob" or "YouTube Portrayed by Gumball"? I decided to make a list of the Creepypasta wiki portrayed by Gordon Ramsay. It starts out kind of heckling, but no offense is meant toward the specific people named; this is all in good fun. I may or may not end up posting it as a blog, but here it is. I hope you enjoyed this and happy birthday! :-D Raidra (talk) 04:51, December 5, 2018 (UTC)

Hello, I just learned about the possibility of creating my own author category (since I have well over 10 stories on this site). I notice on the blog post it says -

"Contact a member of the Admin team and await a response before adding your category."

so I hope this is the correct way to go about contacting an admin for that purpose.

thanks,

I have a question
I need to ask. So I messaged Empy about redoing my story completely with the same character. Could you answer? Can I freely post a brand new story with the same character? Or do I have to ask for an appeal and rewrite it, then show it before I post it?

LionPrince13 (talk) 06:04, February 7, 2019 (UTC)

Here's the gist.
Basically my pasta was taken down. I wanted to completely redo the character and story, so do I need an appeal or can I just freely post it? I plan to take the original premise, redo it, and write a brand new story about him.

LionPrince13 (talk) 00:18, February 8, 2019 (UTC)

It's me again
I'm hoping to be able to write my story eventually so I hope you can answer my previous questions.

LionPrince13 (talk) 13:53, February 10, 2019 (UTC)

Do you have any bullets?
Ah hello, Banning.

First, thank you for taking the time to send that message, I appreciate it. Second, I'm sorry I made you delete a story.

Now, as for the story; I'm not going to change it. Allow me to explain, this perticular piece was written in the heat of the moment as a result of some shitty mood. It just felt right and the amount of effort I put into this wasn't as large as I usually do. So that's fine. In fact, I didn't originally intend on posting it here. I posted it elsewhere, it caught attention - one thing lead to another and it eventually ended up here.

It appears it wasn't meant to be here, oh well... That's fine, I have something else on the stove, so worry not - I shall not be discouraged from writing and posting.

Also, thank you for the compliments and keep up the great job, BK! :)
