The Last Straw (new 4/5)

[MGS]

I could be persuaded to post more, but there never seems to be enough interest in it.

I've been hoping to see Glow Sticks posted for some time now. It sounds so interesting. Maybe you could post a preview, or a full chapter to get things going and the interest will surely follow?

One of the best stores on this site! The frustrating thing is that you set up the next event so well that it is difficult to wait for the next installment!

If you don't enjoy cliffhangers, you might want to avoid the rest of my stories . I am honored to be considered among the best and appreciate your kind words. As for waiting, I could be persuaded to post more, but there never seems to be enough interest in it.

Hello Neverdoubted. I was reading your work back in the Thornwood days.
I look at the statement There never seems to be enough interest in it and I cannot decide if that is a joke or if it is serious because I find it hard to imagine how anyone with your talent could doubt it.

In my humble opinion you are in the top tier of writers here. Your characters are engaging, they have differernt motivations and foibles and you keep them interacting is a way that drives the plot forward. Your plots are amusing, have far more than enough twists to keep readers engages and your use of the ongoing serial cliffhanger is done at level that would be enviable among people for whom writing is a significant part of their income. You stories start off quick enough in the first few chapters and the continue to engage only enough energy points to give the work a rhythm
You seem to be a discipline and dependable writer who produces new work at a predicable rate and that is a significant achievement

So in short, in my opinion, your writing craft approach levels I would expect from paid published authors

I joke about it, but I am also dead serious. If engagement in my works is down (and it is), what else am I to assume but that it is no longer relevant? I enjoy and want to support this genre, but if it has passed me by or my works are no longer resonating, I'm not too stubborn to step aside and let other authors tell their stories.

Thank you for your kind words. They mean more than you know.

Passed you by? No longer relevant? No sir! I check this site multiple times a day to look for updates. Keep writing!

I may not comment very often in this forum, but you are definitely not irrelevant. This is one of my favorite stories here, and I'm always looking forward to a new chapter!! (I'd also really like to see a new chapter of Popular on your website if it can ever get enough votes)

I know how it feels when it seems like engagement is down. The sad fact is, people are tired, and their brains are not always firing. They're trained to think it's better to say nothing than to make fools of themselves. So they stay quiet and just hope everyone knows what they feel

To some extent i personally find it a cyclic issue. When engagement is down, you naturally feel less inclined to post as fast, but when it takes a long time for the next chapter, people tend to lose interest. I'm not sure what the solution is.

I'm finding this story engaging. Could you keep it going please?

[perseus]

Please don't stop writing. I know we all appreciate your work. Your stories are part of the reasons many of us are into this genre in the first place.

I'll admit that I haven't read this story yet but it's on my reading list. I'm definitely going to get to it.

And I'm still burning a candle for Dare me to return one day. I really miss Lucy

Dare Me was the first story I read here. It has led me to so many more amazing stories on the site..
