Blog Entry #46-Placing All Bets on This Last Story · 11:49pm May 22nd, 2019
So, as most of you know, I've been on and off of here(asking for advice, giving said advice, eta). I've been thinking long and hard about this and I've come to a standstill. While I enjoy writing(to an extent), I also like having an audience to get/receive advice/criticism. While what I'm about to say is insane, but I've come to this conclusion- This will be my last attempt on getting an audience/new friends/followers.
I'm going to get a paid editor and coverart (I've found a few who have been nice enough to offer but I have yet to find the one if that makes any sense) this time and hopefully, that'll help. I'm going to put 200% into this and make sure there are ZERO room for errors. With that said, if this fails... well, I may (or may not) quit writing as a whole(as it's clear to me writing is just not my forte). The goal(or rather, how much I wish for) isn't set and stone but I'm going to make sure this pays off.
With that said, I hope everyone's day is going well(and if theres anyone who can point me to anyone who can do cover arts, that would be awesome). Thank you for hearing me out.
i'm sorry to hear this... =/
5062925 well, that's IF this doesn't work out. But I'm glad to hear someone cares so to speak.

i've read a couple of your stories, and quite liked them. shame you don't have a bigger following though... hopefully, this new story helps somewhat.
5062933 Well, if you could point me to some people who are willing to do cover art(no more than 20$), it'd help. That and I need promotion but I'll worry about that once it's finished.

well, idk about 20 dollar cover art, but i wouldn't mind promoting.
You should really write to amuse yourself, rather than gain a huge audience. I know it can be frustrating, but it's just one of those things that if you're not having fun, then most times the people reading won't either, from what I've seen of my own personal experience.
I agree with E2002og and Merc. Write for yourself. If you enjoy doing it, then that's all that matters.
5062987 Not gonna lie- I didn't recognize you at first. At least, until I saw the name and then I was like "Oh yea...!". I'm so use to seeing you having a Sunset bio pic so it threw me off. But in all seriousness, while I do agree with the kind words, I was planning on getting a coverart regardless. The only diffrence being if how much i put into it.
5062984 I haven't see you in awhile. Kinda encouraging to see you again. Like I told pabrony, the coverart was gonna happen regardless of the situation. This is just giving me more of a drive if that makes any sense. But worse case scenario, I'll be around. Just kinda blending in the background in a sense.
5062978 While I agree with you, I've done that but I(Unfortunately) dont have that kind of luxury anymore. Most of what I have wrote(with like a fee expections) are from the heart and its clear to me that doesn't really work(so to speak). But I get what you mean.

My last blog post explains the new profile pic.
5062975 Well, I did say no more than 20. I wasnt gonna spend that much.
5062993 Ah. Well, it looks great.

Thanks
That's good faith to have, and a great way to make an ultimate-ultimatum for yourself, if that makes sense
5064448 Its fine. I was relaxing, thinking of more editing to do.
Good luck!
5064480 Thank you. I'll be sure to notify you when the story is up.
