The bot comments followed me to AO3 too…

We can never escape the bots.

Firstly, god damn I’m terrible with promises. Not a single update in July. Bit of writers block in how I’m presenting this next chapter, as well as a crisis or two with uni prep. Update soon though.
          
          Secondly, I’m toying with the idea of cross posting my work onto ao3. There’s been some talk of it given the influx of bot comments and scams writers get when they update. I’m not gonna pretend it impacts me as much as others (I actually need to update for starters), but it’s still got me thinking that putting my writing elsewhere could be fun. Obviously though, I’ll likely remain active here primarily.
          
          I know it’s a stretch to ask, given you’re here, and not there, but reckon this could be a good idea?

@chimera9119 As someone also considering it cause of all the bots here, could be worth honestly. In case Wattpad goes to even more shit it’ll be nice to have something to fall back onto

Life’s been getting in the way of writing Redline again, so getting back into the swing of things has taken a lot more time than anticipated. It’s not me being an emotional wreck over my writing like last time, I swear!
          
          July’s gonna be when I want to steam through as much as I can before going back to uni. At the bare minimum, I want the sports festival to be done. But ideally, I want to get the internships finished too. It’s the turning point in the story I’ve been anticipating the most to write about, and it’s agony to not just gush about what’s in store.
          
          Sorry for the wait, I’ll ACTUALLY be back soon.

Today I’ve inherited the ownership of a Discord server indefinitely for the time being from one of my friends here.
          
          I’ve talked once or twice about making a server of my own in the past for writers and readers to hang out in, but never really following through.
          
          Now though, being trusted to run a place like such, I thought it would be a good opportunity to open the place up to all of you here. Whether ownership gets handed back or not, I thought now would be a good opportunity to invite and involve the community I’ve built here.
          
          This server is intended to be a safe and inclusive place for writers and readers alike, already with some of the best (and craziest) people I know.
          
          https://discord.gg/RrkYUWewY 
          
          Hope to see you there!

Diese Nachricht könnte beleidigend sein
I’m tired. I’ve been stuck second guessing just about every word of this next chapter, afraid that if I don’t write it exactly like everyone wants, it’s gonna get a barrage of comments calling this person a fraud, or that person a bitch, or even a death threat to a character over the tiniest thing like something recent.
          
           I used to be so excited to write. This was even meant to be one of the chapters I was most excited to write about since the very start. But I’m just so fucking tired of everything, and I don’t think I even like this story anymore.

Thats understandable, just remember that this is ultimately your story, and no one else’s. We’re just the readers, but some people definitely get too into it and say some dumb things. It’s those people that you shouldnt let dictate what you write. 
            
            Personally I hope you continue, I want to see the story you envisioned and you definitely seem excited to write these chapters. And I wanna read your writing with your vision, not some whiny dumbass in the comment who’s mad because the story isn’t going their way. They ain’t writers, you are my guy.

@chimera9119 Write what you would read. That’s a phrase I’ve personally been following since I started on this app and it’s helped me a lot in mitigating how people’s opinions affect my writing. As long as I would read and enjoy what I’ve written then people can think whatever they want, who cares
            
            Take a break dude, trust me when I say it helps

Rewrote the last Redline chapter, so you may have gotten another notification about it. Mostly unchanged, but the most important part of it (you know what) got overhauled and toned down, so it might be worth a reread.

Also went against Nokogiri’s character, personally

I changed the argument between Shindou and Nokogiri. People didn’t like it, nor did I succeed in conveying the point I was trying to make with it. Plus it conflicts with the origins chapter I had planned next.

I’m personally really glad that you changed it. It was kinda weird when it happened, but the change you made really made it feel more natural and satisfying to read (I have no idea what was changed, nor have i reread it yet..)
