ARE YOU A FREAK ABOUT WRITING?

Search an author, book, newspaper, magazine, comic, podcast, story, publisher, writing service, subject or keyword and find the Parking Spots around it.


Books, authors, newspapers, magazines, comics, journalism, scripts, podcasts, audiobooks, publishing, AI, writing businesses, strange stories and whatever else around words is interesting enough to deserve a Parking Spot.


✍️ WRITING IS WAY BIGGER THAN “I WROTE A BOOK.”

A book is one place words can end up. It’s nowhere close to the whole writing world.

I learned that one myself.

I wrote Wicked Darkness: Johnny’s Survival Guide To The End Times. Roughly 400 pages of wild Christian, spiritual and end-times rabbit holes. I put it on Amazon. I built WickedDarkness.com. Anybody who wants the book can find it.

Assuming they know to look for it.

That’s the annoying part.

But books are only one part of this Island. Newspapers need reporters. Magazines need writers. Comic books need stories and dialogue. Movies and television start with scripts. Podcasts can begin with research and a blank page. Advertising runs on copy. Websites need content. Publishers need manuscripts. Editors need writers. Writers need editors. And AI just wandered into the middle of the whole thing and changed the conversation again. 😂

  • The writers — authors, journalists, screenwriters, comic writers, bloggers, poets, copywriters, playwrights, columnists, ghostwriters and everybody else turning ideas into words.
  • The work — books, newspapers, magazines, comics, scripts, newsletters, articles, blogs, podcasts, audiobooks, advertising and everything else those words become.
  • The business around it — publishers, editors, agents, media companies, studios, designers, narrators, marketers, tools, technology and services built around getting the work finished and in front of somebody.

The words might be the starting point. Everything around them is where this gets interesting.

That’s an absurd amount of stuff to talk about.

WELCOME TO THE ISLAND.


⭐ THERE ARE REALLY THREE SIDES TO EVERYTHING WRITING

Authors. Journalists. Screenwriters. Comic writers. Bloggers. Poets. Copywriters. Playwrights. Essayists. Columnists. Ghostwriters. People staring at blank pages and eventually putting something there.

Books. Newspapers. Magazines. Comics. Scripts. Articles. Newsletters. Blogs. Podcasts. Audiobooks. Advertising. Stories. Sometimes the finished thing is 400 pages. Sometimes it’s eight words on a billboard.

Publishers. Editors. Agents. Newspapers. Media companies. Studios. Designers. Narrators. Marketers. Writing services. Software. AI. Platforms. Everybody helping create it, improve it, package it, publish it, sell it or get somebody to notice it.

🌴 THE WRITERS FREAK ISLAND

Writers Freak is one Island inside Freak Sites. Every Island has its own world. This one is built around everything writing.

I need enough room to wander around without turning the whole thing into one giant mess, so here’s where things currently park:

  • 📚 Books & Authors — novels, nonfiction, poetry, authors, book reviews, literary history, classics, new releases and the whole world around books.
  • 📰 News, Journalism & Media — newspapers, magazines, reporters, columnists, journalism, newsrooms, investigative writing, local news, national media and the stories behind the stories.
  • 💻 Blogs, Newsletters & Digital Media — blogs, newsletters, websites, online publications, independent media and the constantly changing world of digital publishing.
  • 📱 Creators, Influencers & Social Media — YouTubers, BookTubers, BookTok creators, Instagram creators, podcasters, reviewers, writing influencers, journalists, commentators and other online creators building audiences around books, writing, stories, publishing and media.
  • 💥 Comics & Graphic Novels — comic books, comic strips, graphic novels, manga, writers, artists, publishers, characters and illustrated storytelling.
  • 🎬 Scripts, Film, Television & Theater — screenwriters, scripts, movies, television, plays, stage writing, adaptations and the words behind what eventually ends up on a screen or stage.
  • 🎙️ Podcasts, Audiobooks & Spoken Word — podcasts, audiobooks, narration, interviews, scripted audio, production and stories created to be heard instead of read.
  • 🏢 Publishing, Editing & Writing Services — publishers, editors, agents, ghostwriters, proofreaders, designers, narrators and businesses that help turn words into finished work.
  • 💼 Copywriting, Advertising & Business Writing — sales copy, advertising, corporate writing, content marketing, brand storytelling and people who make a living writing words designed to sell or explain something.
  • 🤖 AI, Writing Tools & Technology — AI writing, research tools, software, platforms, copyright questions, new technology and whatever changes how people write, publish and distribute words next.

I’m building here myself — my books, my writing, my research, my Parking Spots, my Garage and whatever strange rabbit hole sends me reaching for the keyboard next.

And apparently the Island already has a resident Writers Freak wandering around with a fountain pen and more notebooks than any reasonable creature should own. 😂

The same $7 Parking Spots are open to anybody who wants to build their own corner of the writing world.

Although, yes, you can absolutely park a book here too.

But that’s nowhere close to the whole Island.

You can park a book. An author. A newspaper story. A magazine. A comic. A screenplay. A podcast. An audiobook. A publisher. An editor. A writing service. An AI tool. A copyright fight. A strange piece of literary history. A journalism story. A great opening line. A terrible ending. Or some ridiculous story about the person who wrote any of it.

Writers Freak uses the mechanics of a listing site.

The Parking Spot is the product.

What you put in it is up to you.

Pick the corner that interests you. Build one worthwhile Parking Spot around it. Give it an address. Share it. Watch what gets attention. Build another.

Keep going and you aren’t just posting pages anymore. You’re building a Writers Freak Garage — your own Channel inside the Island.

THAT’S THE PART YOUTUBE TAUGHT EVERYBODY.

YouTube doesn’t require you to arrive with a video business before you start a channel. It gives you a container. You fill it with videos.

Writers Freak works the same way at the simplest level. I built the writing-world Island. You decide what part of that world you want to build around, then fill your Garage with Parking Spots.

YOU DON’T NEED A WRITING BUSINESS TO START.
YOU CAN USE WRITERS FREAK TO START BUILDING ONE.

And I’m not asking you to do something I’m not doing myself.

I’m building my Garage here too.

THERE’S A LOT MORE HERE THAN “BUY MY BOOK.”

If the connection to writers, books, journalism, newspapers, magazines, comics, scripts, podcasts, publishing, media, AI, writing businesses or the enormous world built around words makes sense, there’s probably a place for it here.


🔎 I WANTED ONE PLACE TO FIND MY OWN WRITING STUFF AGAIN.

Writing is a massive world, and I already create a ridiculous amount of it. Why not build an Island where I can keep it, search it and turn some of it into something else later?

Books. Commentary. Newspaper stories. Magazine pieces. Comics. Articles. Scripts. Stories. Research. AI. Publishing. Podcasts. Audiobooks. Marketing. Weird ideas I couldn’t stop thinking about.

Some of those Parking Spots may point people toward Wicked Darkness, Freak Sites, Cool Car Guy, my Sales Freak account or something else I’m building.

Some are simply stories or subjects I wanted to explore.

Either way, months later I don’t want to remember which social platform, podcast description, video description, document, post or digital drawer I threw something into.

I want to remember one thing.

THE KEYWORD.

Somebody brings up a book, an author, a newspaper story, a comic, a podcast, an audiobook, AI, publishing, journalism, storytelling or something else I already spent way too much time writing about and I think:

“I ALREADY WROTE ABOUT THIS.”

I don’t start scrolling through old posts.

I come back to Writers Freak and type what I remember.

BOOK. NEWSPAPER. COMIC. PODCAST. AI. EDITOR. STORY.

BAM. THERE’S THE PARKING SPOT.

Maybe I want to read it again.
Maybe something changed and I want to update it.
Maybe somebody is arguing about the subject and I already did the work.

Copy the link. Send it. Have a nice day.

A social post gets a timestamp.
A Parking Spot gets an address.

That’s what I wanted.

A searchable Island built around words, stories and everything around them, where the content I create doesn’t disappear into a feed.

Remember the subject. Search the Island. Find the Parking Spot.

✒️ WANT TO CLAIM A DESK ON MY ISLAND?

I built Writers Freak because I wanted somewhere to put the things I write, research, argue about and occasionally spend way too much time thinking about.

I’m building my own Parking Spots and Garage here with the same product I’m opening to you.

You do not need a published book, a writing business, an agent, a podcast, a giant audience or a tortured relationship with a typewriter.

You need something in the world of words worth building around.

A book. An author. A newspaper story. A magazine. A comic. AI and writing. A publishing disaster. A screenplay. An audiobook. A copyright fight. A weird piece of literary history. A useful tool. A terrible ending. A great opening line. A story nobody else seems to be telling.

Use AI if it helps. Build the Parking Spot. Give the subject its own page and URL. Distribute it. Watch the counter. Build another one when the next idea refuses to leave you alone.

Already wrote the article? Recorded the podcast? Shot the video? Filled a folder with research nobody else has seen?

Great. Bring the useful parts with you.

Starting with nothing but an idea and a blinking cursor?

That’s fine too. Writers have been staring at blank pages and making questionable decisions for centuries. 😂

NOW IT HAS AN ADDRESS.

A standard Writers Freak Parking Spot costs $7 one time. No subscription. No scheduled renewal. No scheduled expiration.

You get the same basic Parking Spot tools I use:

  • Up to 25 photos
  • Up to two supported embedded videos
  • Up to 30,000 characters for writing
    • Which should be enough unless Tolstoy moves in too
  • Your own dedicated URL
  • Links, contact information and calls to action
  • A public view counter
  • A place inside the searchable Writers Freak Island

THE PARKING SPOT IS THE PRODUCT.
IT’S THE SAME PRODUCT I USE TO BUILD MY OWN WRITERS FREAK GARAGE.

If it genuinely belongs somewhere around writing, storytelling or the world around words, park it.
If something changes, update it.
If you’re done with it, remove it.

WANT TO PUSH ONE PARKING SPOT FURTHER?

The standard $7 Parking Spot is the starting point. There are also optional one-time products when they make sense:

  • Video Spotlight — $99
    A finished 3–5 minute video you provide and I approve for publication through the @FreakSites channels on YouTube and Rumble, with links back to the active Parking Spot.
  • StoryDrive™ 1000 — $299
    A commitment to 1,000 additional recorded views for one active, eligible Parking Spot under the current StoryDrive™ terms.

The Parking Spot stays the core product.


ONE PARKING SPOT IS A PAGE.
YOUR GARAGE IS YOUR WRITING CHANNEL.
THAT CAN BECOME A BUSINESS.

Every Parking Spot connects to your profile.

Build one and you have one page. Keep creating and those Parking Spots collect inside your Writers Freak Garage.

Your Garage might become a world around books and authors. Or journalism and media. Or comics. Or screenwriting. Or publishing. Or audiobooks. Or AI and writing. Or whatever corner of the writing world keeps dragging you back to the keyboard.

Think of the Garage as your shelf inside the Island. The Parking Spots are what you keep putting on it.

Maybe you already have a book, business, podcast, audience or stack of manuscripts nobody has seen.

Great.

Maybe you don’t.

That’s fine too. A blank shelf is not a failure. It’s just waiting for the first thing worth putting on it.

I’m doing the same thing with mine. And the green guy with the fountain pen appears to be taking notes. 😂

🛠️ YES. YOU BUILD YOUR OWN PARKING SPOT.

Don’t panic. If you’ve survived a blinking cursor, you can survive this form. 😂

Writers Freak isn’t a done-for-you publishing company. It’s a self-service system I built because I wanted to use it myself — then I opened the same tools to you.

Hit Grab A Spot. Choose the category that fits. Add the writing, images, videos, links and whatever you want somebody to do next.

If staring at a blank page makes your brain hurt, use AI. I do.

Just make it truthful and make sure it belongs somewhere around writing, journalism, publishing, media, storytelling or the world around words.

Then have at it.


💰 WANT TO DO WHAT I’M DOING?

I’m building Writers Freak by using the product myself — and selling the same $7 Parking Spots other people can use to build here too.

I create Parking Spots. I build my Garage. I use AI. I distribute what I create. I watch what gets attention. And I show people what I’m doing.

You can do the same thing.

The Writers Freak Affiliate Program is free to apply for. Approval is required. You do not have to buy a Parking Spot just to become an affiliate.

Build your Garage. Show somebody what you’re doing.

If somebody buys a qualifying $7 Parking Spot through your affiliate relationship, you earn 20% on the direct sale.

If that assigned customer comes back later and buys another qualifying Parking Spot or other commissionable Writers Freak product?

YOU CAN GET PAID AGAIN.

Views matter because they show attention. Writers Freak does not pay you merely because somebody read the page, admired your semicolons or argued about the Oxford comma. 😂

The product has to sell.

Want to build a connected network too?

20% → 15% → 10% → 5% → 5%

You don’t get paid for joining.
You don’t get paid just because somebody becomes an affiliate.
You don’t get paid just because somebody clicks a link.

BUILD IT.
SHOW IT.
SELL IT.
DUPLICATE IT.

I BUILT THE PRODUCT.
YOU CAN USE IT, SELL IT AND BUILD A NETWORK AROUND IT.

Books. Authors. Newspapers. Magazines. Comics. Journalism. Podcasts. Audiobooks. Scripts. Publishing. AI. Great writing. Terrible writing. Editing. Media. Writing businesses. And whatever else makes me stop and think, “I need to write about that.”


I BUILT THE ISLAND.
I BUILT THE PRODUCT.
YOU CAN USE IT TOO. PUT IT IN WRITING.

Read the stories. Find the books. Follow the journalism.
See the comics, scripts, podcasts, publishing fights, tools and ideas people park here. Search the Island and see what turns up.

If something in the world of writing, publishing, journalism, media or storytelling is worth writing, arguing about, recording, explaining or remembering, give it a Parking Spot.
Then build the next one.
