Ofc you do!
Do you like writing stories? ✍️
Well, quite likely you do, but chances are maybe you don't always get around to writing as much as you'd like?
Do you know people on Discord? 👾
This one is harder but really, there are a lot of people out there and they aren't all scary, promise.
Then, you should write Stories with People on Discord!! 🎉
"But How??" you ask. 🤷♀️
Ofc you ask that bcs what the heck am I even talking about? I am talking about the...
✨Round Robin Storybot ✨
A Discord bot that helps you write stories with friends! Or, at least other people! (Or really you could write stories by yourself as well, that's actually kind of fun.)
Isn't he cute? (Yes, the branch was originally meant to look like the AO3 logo, and no, it's nothing actually to do with AO3, it just started out that way and it stuck. You might see the old logo with the red lines floating around. The bot is super fun to write collaborative fanfiction with!)
The Round Robin Storybot is a robust collaborative writing bot and story relay game that runs relay-style story events where writers take turns contributing entries.
When one writer finalizes their turn, the next participant is automatically selected and notified.
Isn't that fun? (Yes, really it totally is!)
Multiple stories can be run concurrently, and there are many configuration options available like:
- Full story metadata including Rating, with the option of having Mature or Explicit stories routed to a separate, age-restricted channel
- Stories can be written in Slow, Quick, or Normal mode for varied complexity and pressure (or no pressure!)
- Multiple writer order options: Random, Round Robin (random but everyone gets a turn before it repeats) and Fixed (join order)
Install the bot on your Discord server here:

I've written this bot as a labor of love for my Hobbit fandom @bagginshieldbookclub Discord server. We've written nine collaborative stories so far, nearly 75k words together! We started out using another bot, Storybot, but I wanted a better turn order than just completely random, and the whole project blossomed from that one desire. It's been great fun to create, and I'm eager to share it with others! If you want to support me but don't have a Discord server, please like and reblog, or share this with others. Thanks! ~Shantismurf
