Ok To Ask Help Developing Fictional Story?

[nfxstudios]

Hello, everyone. I'm new to the forum, but browsing through the subforums and threads, this seems like an excellent community in which to discuss and learn a broad range of scientific subjects.

 

I am a writer who is developing a fictional novel, and while the science must of necessity serve the story, rather than the other way around, I would nevertheless like to ground the story in at least plausible modern science. What I am wondering is if it is ok to ask a few specific questions here for help in developing this aspect of the novel? Or would the community prefer to keep the discussion on the track of academic discussion and education?

 

Thanks!

This section is for topics specific to science education, but you should be able to ask your questions in the appropriate sections. Anatomically Correct Aliens in Biology, Blowing Up the Sun in Physics, and How Many Planets is Too Many? in Astronomy, for instance.
