Airachnophobia Update: Chapter 1 is done being rewritten. In order to not get caught up in fixing old chapters instead of making forward progress, I'll probably switch on and off, doing one new chapter and then one old chapter. that means chapter 27 is next, so expect another character from TFP to be added there. Also, the outlines for chapters 28-30 are done as well, so those should be out in the not so distant future.

Given how much more of a vision I have for Airachnophobia now, and how much my writing has improved, I'm going to be reworking some of the earlier chapters to have better continuity, more vivid immersion with details and descriptors, and in some cases entirely different sections. Chapter 1 is "under construction" right now, and if you see any of the earlier chapters with missing content or odd jumps that don't make sense, it's because Wattpad only lets me save by publishing, so while I work on a chapter I can't leave the old one up. Sorry for the issues that may cause until I'm done fixing them.

Y'all are loyal asf, I posted a chapter at 2AM and like 200 people already read it before I woke up... You guys are the best

@ForeverSans459 You're right, and I have to remember it's easy to kill creativity with comparison. Even if only the dedicated readers end up reading the rest of the story it's still worth it. Plus, in writing it, I've developed much better ways to tie in overarching story ideas and themes and then split them up into the chapters rather than just writing straight forward with no plan. So, it's worth it to finish the story even if no one reads it. Though, consistent uploads can put my stuff at the top of the character tags, so it might turn around anyway. Thanks for the encouragement.

@ForeverSans459 But anyway, the point is that your story is not as famous as it should be because the moment of the boom of the fandom of franchises like Transformers or FNAF is already over or it is not still popular as before and those who search for something related, the first thing they will find will be those garbage stories that came out first and they will be left with that.But those of us who keep searching find stories like yours that give life and personality to their characters and their world. Don't give up, who knows, maybe in the future your stories will gain more popularity. I trust you.

I've got an update in the works for Airachnophobia, probably to come out tonight. I know I've been MIA for a while, but I appreciate those of you who are still interested in my story, and those of you who are just discovering it. Stay tuned - I've got a finished outline for chapters 26-30 already, so don't be discouraged!

You probably won't read this, but I want you to know that so far, your stories are some of the best I've seen on this garbage site known as Wattpad, I love how you describe the place where the story takes place, you give your stories an interesting concept in the sense of how they link and the situations occur. But the most important point and which many "writers" in this place omit or fail in the execution is: Giving the characters a PERSONALITY (or in case they are characters with an already defined personality like the ones in your Transformers story, that it is faithful to the one they already have) Because many, and let's be honest, they base their stories TOO "anime style" or "auto-insert" and make things be or look too "easy" or meaningless (to put it in some way), both in the plot and in the relationships of the characters with others and their environment. HOWEVER, you build the story in a way that your characters would act in a certain situation (which I love) and it doesn't just happen "because yes". Other points I want to emphasize are good writing, the good use you give to literary resources (e.g. ellipsis, metaphor, etc.) which all these elements together make it enjoyable to read your stories. Because of writers like you, it's worth continuing to check this dump just to read what you have to show. ❤️ PS: The reason why your stories don't have as many views despite having all the good points I mentioned is because this platform is more busy promoting things like "BTS x BTS" or "mature" type stories that nobody cares about. My recommendation would be that you keep writing, but on a better website or story app. And if one day you do, please let me know and I'll run. See you!!

@ ForeverSans459 Yeah, but more of them are in Spanish. It's hard find good stories, thats why i search in English or Spanish.

@ForeverSans459 This is the kind of thing where reading it can easily change a man's life. It's genuinely such a motivation to hear that kind of thing and now I'm reinvested in writing. Are there any other writing apps you'd recommend? I would totally give them a try. Thanks for this, I've been needing something. ❤️

@ OmFiscient Tell me, I don't know why I can't get into the story because I left Wattpad by mistake halfway through the chapter!
