Merry Christmas everybody!
          	
          	That's it... I have been taking a break from writing due to the holidays and stuff. I would say more, but I've really been busy thing to trap Santa again this year. I haven't been able to so far, and I really need to.
          	
          	I tried setting a mouse trap next to the cookies and milk, that failed. I tried placing a bear trap in the chimney, that failed. I tried mailing Santa my Christmas list that came with a pipe bomb, and that failed cause he still showed up to give me presents for some reason. So this year, I'm going to poison the milk and cookies... Probably should've tried that before the pipe bomb idea.....
          	
          	Anyways, Merry Christmas! I hope you all stay safe!

Heya guys!  So one thing ive noticed is despite the sequal being somehat hyped its acturly.. flopping? Not like in trying to discourage you Mr derpman but still seing it and if i was in your shoes id be super unmotivated to continue  but still if we do think about it, it did start gaining traction around the end but still take your time dude there id still alot of people who wanna see it end and i have said it before the most likly reason its not getting alot of veiws is because most people just dont know because the sequal and non veiwers or non acounts count as veiws but still even if you feel discouraged keep going  

MrDerp1

@flamejames14 That's a problem almost every show, story, ect has. Overtime, less and less people will continue on with it. The view count for the chapters in Futuristic World show it pretty well. This is why I have been working on a separate story in the background as I work on Storm Rising. New stories bring new people.
            
            However, I will admit that it has been demotivating at times. I try my best to keep writing though. I have many ideas that I would hate to never make good use of.

Hello Hello Everyone! Been thinking about expanding to other platforms to write in, mainly as backup. I just want suggestions and recommendations.
          
          For the record, I don't plan to leave Wattpad yet, but I do want to search for some other platforms to publish my stories to as well. So I wanted to ask all of you about any other platforms I can write in. This will allow me to have a backup in case something happens to my account, and all of you will know where to find me elsewhere!

@MrDerp1 yeah ao3 is the go to since there's "0 limits" on that website

@MrDerp1 AO3 and fanfiction.net seems like the best to me, I know there's others but these are the ones that pop up in my mind.

@MrDerp1 AO3 is like the go-to. I'd say it's better than Wattpad (proper search, better tags, more options in the text editor). The interface is a bit lacking, but I personally don't mind. And you do need to wait around a week to get an account. I also know of fanfiction.net but only read a few short stories there and didn't really like it. Some also post stories on Deviant Art, but I think that's weird.

Christmas is around the corner now! How's everyone doing? I hope you're doing well, cause I have an important question to ask.
          
          Movies make it easier for viewers to visualize a scene rather than reading a scene, and having to visualize it yourself by using your imagination, and what is described to you. When it comes to threatening characters in stories, it's easier to show that in a video than it is with words alone since it is up to the author to describe a scene well enough for the reader to imagine it, and understand that a character is threatening.
          
          So my question for all of you... Is there a story where you felt as if a character, villain or not, was a real threat and almost intimidating in some ways? In your opinion, what can a story do to help you feel that intimidating presence of a certain character? And are there any ways that a story can fail to make a Character who is supposed to be threatening, non-threatening?
          
          Feel free to share examples from stories or shows if you have any. Now stay safe! And thank you!

@MrDerp1 I'm doing Great, but unfortunately I'm not sure if I recall any villains in novels or fanfics that made me feel threatened. So sorry I can't help maybe one will pop up later.

Is it possible if we can get any official release dates for storm rising chapter 3 and 4 or just 3? Im just curious and not trying to rush u

flamejames14

 Ita definitely beat to finish it then work on it so it fits with storm rising and stuff
Reply

MrDerp1

@flamejames14 Yeah, good idea. I still don't even know what I'm gonna do for that story. I have one idea, but I'm worried that it won't feel like it fits with how Storm rising and Futuristic world is. So I'll have to figure that out still.

Also for the side story on how earths doing bc leo got /tp to a furry world i feel like you should only do it once storm rising is finished

Hello fellas! Just wanted to come here and say that from what I've seen... Black Ops 7 is ass bro. Seriously, hsve you seen any clips of it? It's like a far cry game with a dark souls bossfight, bad writing, and reused assets. I guess that's what we expect from a modern COD game, huh? Where's the passion behind it?
          
          Whatever. Just wanted to being that up. How's everyone doing? I've been busy trying to plan ahead for Storm Rising. I have plenty of ideas, just little time to get it all down.
          
          If you're looking for any good games to play other than Call of Duty, try Hollow knight, Terraria, or Subnautica. If you want a multiplayer experience, try THE FINALS.
          
          It was nice catching up. Stay safe!

@MrDerp1 i could recommend playing Holdfast its like a bf but in napoleonic times with chaos .but im mostly tf 2 player. If it comes to singleplayers it will be witcher 3 or ghost of tsushima (idk about yotei despite getting alot of hate ,i wont judge till i try),baldurs gate 3 , Divinity original sin 2 ,dying light the beast, expedition 33, Nine souls .My list is long so i give you from the top shelfs because i don't wanna waste the space.

@MrDerp1  the only cods that are golden are cod:waw,black ops 1 ,2 cod 1 and cod modern warframe the old one  and the rest id mediocore or pure trash,bf 6 is good but not perfect but i still prefer bf over cod.Thats what happens when devs dont have idea for a good story or mechanics or dont implement things that are stupid or people dont like .Im afraid that this series will die unfortunately or it died after the infiniti warfare .

Hello! Hello! So I was just about to get back to writing chapter 3 for Storm Rising, and I noticed a new button that wasn't there before.
          
          "Add a pole."
          
          From my understanding, I get to put in a question, have two or more answers, and I guess the reader chooses one. This addition came out of nowhere for me. How do you guys feel about this new feature? Do you plan to use it yourself if you written your own stories?
          
          Personally... I can see this being more than perfect for a future story I did I had one time. Unfortunately, I have too much going on right now to start that story. But it's an idea.
          
          Okay cool, see ya. Bye. Farewell. Adios.

Henry-Man

@ MrDerp1  Makes sense. Many authors make separate chapters for polls in their stories. Now, they just have to announce in the story there's a pole.

@MrDerp1 I like it. I actually already used the feature. Its a nice way to get more feedback and inengagement with readers. Well thats just my opinion.

@MrDerp1 I had also gotten it a few days ago. Not super useful if you don't get much responses in the time before you start writing something new(unless the poll is story unrelated). It's very weird that I've read about polls on a random blog post from Wattpad almost a year ago, and thought they were just given out at random like tts on some stories, but apparently now it's just available for everyone or something.

I've been experimenting with a short spin-off story idea. And when I say short, I mean very short. Less than 10 chapters short, and probably shorter word count for each chapter too.
          
          I haven't decided if I'll commit to it yet. It's in the same universe as Futuristic World though. None of the main characters you know are in this short spin-off story, but it is in the same universe.
          
          The main point of the story is to show that stuff is going on outside what Leo is aware of. Earth and this weird furry planet slowly discovering each other overtime. Just imagine Earth staring at the stars, and knowing that there's something staring back...
          
          I don't know. Thoughts?

@MrDerp1 while I was reading your first futuristic word story I always found myself wondering what was happening back on earth. I think a short story about what happened after Leo gets transported would be a great idea.
