    Update Regarding My Time Here

    As some of you may have noticed, I've been online less and less lately. This is due to personal reasons that I wish to not bring up at this time. Another reason is I've kinda lost my drive to continute writing. I apologize to everyone who stayed by me during all this time but once I transfer all my stories to a friend of mine, I'll be gone and I don't plan on coming back. At most, I'll be doing

    Blog Entry #50-200 Followers!

    Yep, you read that right. I've reached 200 followers and its thanks to all of you. I honestly didn't think I ever would to be honest. Even now, I still don't believe it. I have a story already planned for this very occasion. It should be out before the end of the year. I hope I can reach 300 before five more years again:rainbowlaugh:. Again, thank you all for the support and I hope to continue

    Blog Entry #47-(Almost) 200 Followers

    I realize it's a little early but I figured now's a good as time as any to thank everyone who has/is following me (even if I don't fully deserve it). I honestly don't know what I'm going to do for my 200th follower achievement. I don't have a story plan in particular but I do have one in the works. Um... Anyways, thank you for your support and heres to getting 300 followers(in like 5 years

Blog Entry #30-My Stories In A Nutshell · 1:30am Nov 28th, 2017

It's scary how accurate this portrays me(and my stories)...:ajsleepy:

Comments ( 11 )

4736379 The bit where Stewie rants at Brain(who is me) and the former is everyone else(including my self doubt)

It's a matter of perspective. I mean, look at how successful your stories are.

4736397 Well, the last "successful" story I had was my mother's day story with 50-1 ratio(and it wasn't featured despite this... yet your story was with less like/dislike ratio. Not dissing you or anything as that's an achievement but still) and that's nearly 6 months ago. Even with new stories(Minus my most recent one witch shows promise), most have barely reach 200 views with less then 20 likes(and that's counting the 3 stories I did publish but removed due to low views and not liking them myself). That's not very successful in my eyes... I'd have more stories out but I don't have many editors and you disprove my characterising so it's impossible to get "good" content without help. I got lucky once(twice if I count my first story as well) and that was with the mane 6 so that was easy views.

Well, the answer to your dilemma is simple: You gotta stop being so pessimistic. Focus on the positives, brother.

4736427 And how can I do that when I've got nothing to show for it(Note I didn't down vote your comment. I don't down vote)?

4736487 Just keep working at it. It took me 7 months and 12 stories before I was on the Popular Stories list and that was for about 45 minutes or so. It took another 3 months and 4 more stories to get to that list a second time. My advice is don't give up and use the comments in your stories to improve your work and see what your followers like/dislike. They'll network with others that might be interested in your work but don't follow you. If you can get a steady editor/pre-reader and use a spellchecker at the very least, you will improve. Stay strong my friend.

4736504 Currently, I only have one stronger(good) editor but at this time, he's busy and I am unable to find another editor(as good as him) without having to pay. If I could, I would but I don't have money I can spare since I'm busy paying for my own things and then some... I should also note that I can't judge what is liked/disliked if the former overtakes the latter (witch would normally be a good thing if the story gained views but it isn't) and since I can't/unable (to) find any major groups(Rage Reviews is one example I can think of) that will judge my stories, I'm not able to grow. That's the hard part.

4736539
Hmm... I'm PM you, hold on.

It's still better than me. It took about ten months for one of my stories to reach one hundred views, and that is the highest (not counting the clop)! I wish I could help you with editing, but I'm not very good... busy as well... I'll try and put some time to the side for you.

I hope you luck with any new things! ^^

4738686 I suppose. Still, the fact that I put all my effort into my stories and none of them have been featured and barely get noticed is concerning for me.
