  • Glad to help. Some of the non-ISBN content I’ve read and tracked on StoryGraph is the mega-web-novel Worm and various interstitial PDF mini-stories that an author posted on their website as part of a continuing Sci-Fi series. All of this content on the service is user-input. All you would have to do is create the feature. When I discovered it, I realized how awesome it is to be able to track such content.

    Remember - great artists steal. So go check out the community features on Literal and the tracking features and user-entry features on StoryGraph.


  • I’m loving StoryGraph. I value its vast array of books, audiobooks, internet based “non-book books” (things that don’t have an ISBN). Also, it’s book import isn’t perfect but very nice. Lastly, I love their metrics. They’ve done an awesome job of it and it’s a joy to see them.

    I enjoy Literal.Club for its large number of clubs and high interactivity. There are network effects that Literal has which StoryGraph just hasn’t achieved yet.

    StoryGraph has tried to implement Community and Book Clubs but it doesn’t work the same way - Literal’s Clubs are for discussing books in general, while StoryGraph’s book clubs are focused on reading one book at a time, with deadlines, discussion sections etc.

    A combination of the two which I can pay for would be mind blowing! 😊






  • Short answer - Yes. https://stinkycandlecompany.com/products/fart-candle

    Longer answer - all smellable scents are composed of chemicals that our scent receptors can understand, primarily by having the chemical compounds actually arrive into our noses and touch the receptors. What that means is that a fart is composed of very fine “shit particles” that float about till they enter your nose and cause you to smell it.

    While an individual fart may be difficult or impossible to bottle, since it contains very few particles needed to either store or replicate successfully, the existence of fart candles displays that farts can be emulated by scent manufacturers by studying the chemical composition of farts.

    I wonder how many farts it would have taken for scent manufacturers to successfully replicate a particularly pungent fart!
