So… I have submitted a few SCP ideas. All of them getting rejected. So it is clear that I need help coming up with an idea. Please help me.

Moved to questions desk, since this isn't a request for critique on a specific idea.

Hey TheHorrorWizard,

There are multiple resources available at an author's disposal to help them conceptualize and write. The Guide Hub has a section tailored to new authors for help in regards to conceptualization. In particular, consider reading guides and essays such as:

• A Guide to Making Good Ideas Out of Nothing
• Your Very First SCP
• Your Journey of Your First SCP: Part I - Introduction and Ideation
• Dr. Mackenzie's Common SCP Pitfalls

If you want to get a good feel for how articles are written and pick up some inspiration, check out the User Curated Lists for articles in a multitude of genres, or The Top Rated Pages Of This Month for general articles that have been received positively by the community.

If you want some direct help with conceptualization from other authors, consider using the IRC Chatrooms to chat with other users.

In the future, please keep questions like this to the Questions Desk. Thank you.
