I’ve written… oh so many. I tried posting one but I didn’t do it right and said I’ll fix it later. After 2 years I probably should get on that anyways what about you all?

    (waking up old thread)

    I sometimes just use SCP as a creative writing starting point to make a joke or riff on themes on social media. Other times, I use my familiarity with it to riff alongside other users. Example here.

    That said, after reading a bunch on scp-wiki and playing Control, I can’t get it all out of my head. I’m sure one of these days I could be bothered to write a real one.

    Isn’t there no governing body for this? Can’t anyone just write and publish their own if they want?

      It’s heavily encouraged to have it reviewed by certain people or authors who have had published works. A page usually gets downvoted till it’s deleted if it’s not reviewed because of certain formatting rules and all that

        I mean just in general, as a book. Can’t anyone just publish their own books and market them outside of that web site?

          I’ve seen a few people post their own SCPs here. I’ve wrote and posted a custom tale offsite before but some people just prefer having it be “official” by being on site
