Stories should feel intentional
Episodes need a clear hook, readable structure, meaningful progression, and enough specificity that the world feels lived-in rather than assembled from genre labels.
Guidelines
Guidelines for a reader-first fiction library.
These guidelines set the tone for LoreBurst as a public reading site: compelling stories, clear labels, respectful community behavior, and no confusion between the reader library and creator tooling.
Transparency matters
Production notes should be honest. Do not claim every work is purely human-authored when tools or collaborative workflows are involved; describe the actual LoreBurst process clearly.
Keep reader pages reader-first
Public fiction pages should emphasize premise, genre, episode count, audio availability, ratings, lore, and release status. Creator Studio belongs in its own lane.
Respect the audience
No misleading unlocked/locked states, dead read buttons, hidden paywalls, spammy SEO blocks, or copied navigation from unrelated Grant Media Network properties.
Community standard
Comments, profiles, and submissions should avoid harassment, hateful conduct, impersonation, non-consensual personal information, and attempts to exploit the platform.
Start with the library
The strongest first read right now is Midnight Protocol, LoreBurst's flagship LitRPG series with twelve published episodes and system rules already live.
