Oh my gosh, thank you so much, that is so sweet! <333 It's honestly crazy to me how lately I've been getting this burst of super sweet & encouraging feedback on it! I really didn't expect it to get so much love, and I couldn't be more grateful. And, it's also made me feel a lot more excited and motivated to finish writing Chapter 9, if that makes sense.
I'm not sure how much I can help you as far as story tips, I mean I've only been writing The Faded Star for a few months now, and I think I've only just recently gotten the hang of promoting my story, making my story community as welcoming as possible, and I'm still struggling a bit with getting a chapter-posting schedule together. Though your sentiment is still sweet & appreciated all the same. <33
