It can be hard to balance writing with the time required to build community around that writing. But, I have set a goal, I want to accumulate 3,000 peeps to share my words with. The question is, which platform? Where am I most likely to find an audience for fantasy writing on n short and long form?

I used to write stories and on a site called theprose.com. Looks to still be around. Iโ€™ll never forget someone gave me some kind of points because they liked my story. It equated to something like $0.035 in real dollars. From that day on, I was a paid writer, just not a well paid writer, lol.

Donโ€™t know what this says about me, but on my way to work I imagined a giant severed hand with some of the forearm (all together approximately two city buses or 131.2 average bananas in length) falling from the sky and smashing a lovely little house next to me. Anyways, have a great day and be safe!

I am a sucker for great story telling and Wicked, in my opinion, is great story tellingโ€ฆ Oh, and happiest of new years and such.

Oh yes, but with family trees and illustrations of all the heraldry right?โ€ฆ. Jk.

Good times had by all, Iโ€™m sure.

Here, I donโ€™t feel like Iโ€™m speaking into the void so much when I post.

This checks out, can confirm.

Itโ€™s relatively farfetched, and Iโ€™m not talking the Pokรฉmon. But, what if certain individuals have โ€œHandlersโ€ who send in plants to generate specific interactions to assuage doubts and reinforce an alternative version of reality for the person in question? It would make for a great fiction story.

Two words. I wrote two words on my WIP yesterday. I did a lot of other things too, but not a lot of writing. I like them two words, they fit the sentence very well and Iโ€™m not sure if I would have found those two words on any other day. So perhaps, yesterday was just meant to be a two word day.

Awesome!

Today is a good day. I think.

Iโ€™ll follow along for that adventure.

Based on the timestamp, he should be a bit over half way through that writing right now. I hope itโ€™s good stuff.

40 minutes, thatโ€™s what I was able to squeeze out of yesterday for writing. I could have done more, but I didnโ€™t, and thatโ€™s okโ€ฆ right? Of course it is, it has to be. I will do more today, maybe.

But if youโ€™re here and you would like buy a bookโ€ฆ TOO BAD, I ainโ€™t finished and donโ€™t know if I ever will. But Iโ€™ll like a goat shaped pancake every day of the week, twice if Iโ€™m really having a day.

I too saw this on Reddit and had to save it.

I will put them on my list and take a look. Thank you!

I hope everyone had a good holiday break in the US, or just a good last week anywhere else. Iโ€™m looking for a new book to read, a magical fantasy or science fiction. What would you recommend?

I may not be a millionaire but I am an imaginaire, with no shortage on ideas. Which is better than a money because there ainโ€™t no taxes they can charge on thatโ€ฆ yet. More ideas less problems.

Why is it looking into my soulโ€ฆ and what does it see there?

Mark Hamill and now Levar Burton! Itโ€™s not the Avengers, because of the copyright of course. But, something is assembling on this app, and I am so here for it! I enjoyed your story telling class on master class.

Count me among your horde of 5000. Together, we will ensure someone gets a new book.

I need a good writing session, the kind where you have an idea and execute on that idea so well that you are a bit mentally exhausted after and feel a small swell of pride, followed by the uncertainty of whether you can replicate such quality ever againโ€ฆ But you still try each time.

Yeah, but imagine the day you do intend to type โ€œduckingโ€ and autocorrect saves you. That will be a ducking glorious day.

Same, Iโ€™ve even gone so far as to not even finish or publish the novel, helps me tremendously when avoiding the Goodreads page about it.
