November 2022 Check-in + Octransfur Reflection
3 years ago
General
Hey, everyone! So as you all now, it's now November, so I think it's high time on a little reflection of my output last month. Well, I think I can safely say Octransfur was the most successful yet. Not only in quantity, but in quality, too! I did stop at the same place in my first ever Octransfur, but I think there was a marked difference this time. I distinctly remember stopping on my previous two attempts with a story that I hated. Just hated the sight of. Octransfur 2021's last story isn't even up anymore, I hated that one so much (and before you ask, I probably won't bring that one back).
This year, however, I ended the streak with what was honestly my favorite story I've ever made. That Hollycroft story was honestly something I thought couldn't be beat at the time. Whether that remains true is uncertain, but the very fact that I thought that is something to behold. You guys all seemed to like it, too - I won't be surprised if it ends up as one of my most popular, if not the most. Some other ones stuck out to me, particularly that Janet Harad TF. I think the overall direction I've forged for myself is a better one, and I'm finally starting to see some improvement in my own work. Stuff just felt more fulfilling to make, you know?
But that's enough rambling about the past, what about the future of this account post-Octransfur? My next story will come up in the next couple of days for a contest, most likely, but what about the days of Octransfur I missed? I doubt I'd write all of the ideas I had, but a good amount of them I'll do, especially the ones intended for other people. I also have a bunch of other longer stories planned, so stay tuned for those.
Lastly, some more thanks are in order. Thanks to everyone like

Yael-Harad, fictomorph on DA, and
AxiomTF. Also to
MCatChat and
CrizBN for the introduction to this challenge to begin with. I don't know how my account would've developed if not for it. And to the dozens of people who have now followed this account and faved! You don't know how much this means to me. Well, I think I've been over too long, so see you on the flip side, and peace out!
