And my apologies for replying so late, but that is a really good advice that I will surely try to follow. Thank you very much for those advices, it really speaks volumes to me to be honest. I will try my best and I hope you do too!

Exactly. Like knowing that Reddit will probably take over those Subreddits sooner or later… kinda scary

Same here, been using YT Premium via Argentina for 2 years or so by now. It’s nice, cause the few bucks you pay for that are fine, considering you get all videos ad-free and even YT music which isn’t great but a nice bonus! just a shame you by now need a Mastercard for it cause Visas have to be from Argentina, as I’ve heard.

No worries, I actually enjoyed reading this much about your story and your, let’s say, journey so far. I mean, you get into detail which helps me quite a lot. Even tho my story is not as character-driven as yours, I would say there are still some very helpful tips in it! Even though your part with “how to get back into the story” is my main problem. My story tends to be very complicated on times. I have now boiled it down to basically two perspectives, the protagonist and the antagonist, but it’s still very convoluted when you meet all kinds of characters over a short amount of time. I did that on purpose though: my story takes place in a city where all hell breaks loose, so people are panicked, and they are running around, meeting dozens of other people. Some of them stick, but I wanted to bring that feeling of chaos and helplessness to the reader, so I don’t start slowly, you know. After a few pages, you are already in it, deep nose-dive into the chaos with no way of finding a way out. Sounds kinda weird now that I read it.

Yeah I guess I just have to get in the right state of mind to get back into my story. I worked on this for so long and I just wish it would be finished sometime soon haha

yes exactly! It’s nice to see that some people actually care enough to move over here and start a new community. Didn’t think this would grow so fast tbh, but it’s welcoming to see. And for whatever Reddit does, maybe it gets back to normal someday, but I highly doubt it.

But seems like some of them have gone public again. At least those I subscribed to. Not all of them but many did. A shame really!

Well I hope they read it! Very well written, it’s nice that you don’t suggest them to change or whatever, you just want to leave (as if they would change anything to begin with, right?)

Yes, I love this Subreddit (oh sorry, said the forbidden word haha) but yeah, I didn’t save any prompts they posted because there were some really cool ones there! That would be a great idea and maybe something like that will show up here eventually as well?

So basically, you suggest to just write down whatever you can think of and later sort the … not so great stuff out haha? I mean sounds like an idea, but since my work is fiction, it’s hard to just write down everything when it has to make at least a little bit of sense inside the world that I try to create. Am I making any sense right now?

That sounds great! So you would say that basically, the feedback gives you the “strength” (if you can call it that) to continue? And you don’t seem to be too focused on just one story, saying that you are working on multiple ones, but how do you keep track of everything, like knowing where exactly you left of, what’s the next big step and all that, you get what I mean?
