Pro-tip

When your story is over one million words, it doesn't mean you're a master storyteller, nor does it mean your story is epic and deep. It means that you either don't know how to properly end a story, went into wirting without a clear idea of how the story should go, or are just an attention whore who is afraid that you won't get anymore views of you start a new story.

Also, I'm drunk.

So when you drink, you feel compelled to write blogs.

A million words is a detriment not something to be proud of. The higher your word count, the more potential readers will balk at starting your story. At a million words, you better have a fucking awesome hook in your opening chapter.

This is true, normally.

As someone vastly smarter than I commented:

The world is full of incoherent ramblers, and most of them, if you really take the time to listen to them carefully, and at length, turn out to be completely full of shit. You get nothing but more incoherence.

So, what's Austraeoh then?

[Captain Unstoppable]

You're doing drunk blogs?

In the same way, a fight scene that lasts a total of four hours is not "epic," it's just badly paced.

To quote a very wise man,

Stories are like a penis. I like to stick them in vaginas.

I like to assume that both the upvote and the downvote came from people that knew I was talking about the Goku vs Frieza fight from Dragonball Z.

4245724 You mean, something like... "Rainbow Dash flies east."

I said opening chapter not story description. Austreaoh's description repelled me. It suggested that the story was something like those 12 hour long artsy fartsy French films. The opening chapter is actually quite nice and the story has a very strong word of mouth going for it.

4249364 That's true. I never would have looked for it, or read it, if it wasn't for the word of mouth.
