Wow, this is really great! He did a good job, and so did you in writing it. ❤️

Evening, everyone. Just got home from the party. It was good. I got to talk to quite a few people I haven't seen in a while. Off to bed now. Goodnight! Enjoy your Friday night!

@Valkyrie mentions social media. That's an important point, I think. GA has a Twitter account, but you post to it only a couple of times per week, and it never interacts with anybody. Twitter can be a really powerful platform (the Twitter writing community has given me both readers of my work and a couple of patrons) when used right, but much like GA you get out of it what you put into it. Interacting with queer writers and the queer community on Twitter might be a good way to attract both readers and writers to the site.

Morning, DiC! Happy Friday! I'm going to a birthday party tonight. Old friend turns 30. I haven't actually seen him in a couple of years as I've become a recluse and he and his girlfriend moved up north. I'm a bit nervous about going. There will be a lot of people there I know, including my ex-boyfriend, and I've hardly seen any of them in literally years. I am going, though! Hope you all have a good day.

Congratulations to US Women's Team for World Cup Win!

It's been quiet in here today, huh? I'm off to bed (way too late again, I have to stop playing Stellaris after midnight...). Goodnight, DiC!

Huh, I forgot about that question when I commented, lol! I had GA suggested to me by a reader on a different site. Can't even recall who it was now... But I'm really grateful I followed the suggestion. No one was reading my original stuff on that other site, just my fanfic. When I came here I was so well received by the community almost at once and welcomed with open arms. I love the way we're able to communicate with our readers, get feedback, and be part of a community. It hurt to be away while I wasn't able to write for two years. Coming back was like coming home.

Morning, DiC! How are you all? Today I am doing chores. The kitchen is a mess. Then hopefully I'll get some more writing done. Got through a good bit of chapter 40 yesterday. Getting to the last leg of the book, the final obstacles my characters have to face. I was planning on going for a run today, but I think it may be too hot. Have a nice day, everyone!
-
Bedtime for me as well. Goodnight, all!

I cried the first time I edited it. Cried a bit this time, too. You have a way of making us feel, Wayne. It's beautiful.

I think the club consolidation with everything writing related going into the writer's club made a lot of sense. That was a good idea. It was weird to suddenly find gaming stuff in The Lounge, lol! But it makes sense to drop forums that don't get a lot of activity.
-
Aww, that's too bad... Or lucky, depending on your definition, cause it is literally figuratively crack, lol!
-
You know, I've read this before, and it's not unknown at all. It was actually originally something someone wrote on tumblr. The original post is here. Tumblr wisdom, man... Sometimes it happens.
-
The last time it happened, it was Civ VI. This time it was Stellaris.
-
Wow, I didn't know you could do that, @Cia, that's super useful! Thanks!
-
You as well, Rick! Take care! ❤️

It's going well. Chapter 39 is with my editor. Hopefully I'll get to post it in the next couple of days or so, and I'm already working on the next one, too. Feels good to be writing it again. I actually think maybe my meds were to blame again. Maybe the higher dose made it harder to be creative again. So I should thank the side effects that made me lower it, really, lol
-
We are. And not at all referring to here. I was just in a conversation where someone asked for advice, I gave it, was ignored, only for someone else to give the exact same piece of advice and be thanked for it. It's not the first time I've felt disrespected by this person. I shouldn't let it get to me, but it is what it is.
-
I'm all right. A little bit agitated, I had a negative interaction online first thing in the morning, lol! But I'll feel better soon.
-
Morning, DiC! How is everyone? Hope you all have a good day!

Well, I did actually tell you how to see the reviews as well, maybe you should have read my entire post? I guess you and I read books differently. I look at genre, tags, and description. Those things together can tell you a lot, imo. As for whether there are reviews or not, there's not really much anyone can do about that, other than review other people's stories.
-
I should not be allowed to play strategy games. Like, ever. The sun is rising... Goodnight, DiC!
-
Woot! I finished the first draft for the next chapter of Storms! It is now with my editor. I'm so excited to be writing!
-
Good job! That's a great first step. Glad it went well!
