I’m going to answer these one by one: Did you just write a story that you want or did you write a story that communicates effectively to readers (storytelling)? *So I grew up reading a lot of epic fantasy as a kid. I kind of learned what worked and what didn’t from them. But I didn’t follow...

It will come. I too want to publish someday, but I’m thinking of going the indie route. There are places on here where you can post for feedback, but if you are looking for natural engagement, it may take a while. If you are prepared to play a long game, and keep posting, I’m sure you will get...

Definitely keep writing and posting. My novel isn’t light at all. But I’m sure there are people out there who will find it. Same as yours. I ended up cross posting and have found more of an audience here than on other platforms. By a lot, for what it’s worth. So don’t give up! Your audience is...

I’m sure there are. But I have a feeling the audience may be smaller. That being said, my epic fantasy has done way better on here than any other writing platforms (I’ve yet to try RR.) The real question I ask myself is do I want popularity or meaning? I’d rather have a small fan base who really...

Why aren’t I sleeping? Ask the loudly snoring cat in my bed. ? She’s worse than a human when it comes to snoring. Vet says she’s fine, she’s just loud ?

Looking for moments that might draw a person out of the story. I have that issue, of having no one to share my work with in my personal circle. They acknowledge I’ve done an admirable thing, but people are either like “I don’t like reading,” or fantasy is not their thing. It’s rough trying to...

I don’t write in web novel format, I have 2 and a half completed standard novels. I have wondered about this too. I wanted to upload my second novel in the series as a separate entity, but I know it will sacrifice visibility. The only thing I can think of is to link to the other works on the...

Why is it I always want a cup of coffee at 7pm? No wonder my brain parties instead of going to sleep. Hopefully I can write a bit more of book 3 of my series and not wake up a total zombie for work tomorrow.

I don’t really understand how that whole thing works, but congrats on getting a donor! That’s awesome!

My brain all day: “man I can’t wait till bed time. “ Bed time arrives, my brain: “time to party.”

That sounds reasonable ? I’m working. And hopefully writing some. I’d rather spend the event with my fictional goblins than with a bad date ?

I love when I finally have a day off work to get caught up on household chores, and I spend all day in bed watching true crime shows instead. Adulting at its finest.

I feel like it’s just a plot device. It doesn’t represent my worldview. That being said, I never write the all out bad for bad’s sake villain. There is always a catalyst for how they act. My main villain was originally a misguided person who chose the wrong path in life, and got in too deep.

I always wanted to learn to paint. I used colored pencils. But painting is such a different kind of talent. I was too heavy handed to learn it.
