I’d like to see you be happy ^^

You and me both Flip, maybe next year will be it.

Do what makes you happy.

Though my bar is insanely high I just like a well written and good story. But do you and don't base anything on my reading chops.

I have little interest in the scripts and stuff.

Sometimes you just have to pick another direction. Explore a character you have not seen in a while. Write a transformation of x into x just for the fun of it.

Just PAST TENSE! And keep in mind things like grammerly cannot parse tense.

My favorite thing in your gallery is the "color of darkness." The relationships is at the core of that TFTG. Dealing with the extra reality stuff like trans was well handled and people can connect with that.

I also liked the zany stuff like deer in the spot light. It was a great villains journey.

Thank you.

I like building up Wild Cat, but I always feel so discouraged about it since most don't seem to like them. So a part of me feels like I shouldn't be writing them at all.

My reason for even starting writing was the community aspect, finding people who would love my work and ideas, people I can discuss that with. I don't care about fav count, I care about being inspired by the people who love my work.

After writing for over 2 years now, I feel like I haven't done enough of a rapidly growing bar I don't think I can reach anymore.

Well, Ace in concern of your work. It actually gets the average amount of reads/faves/ comments on FA and that’s fine. People are reading and enjoying. The wildcat stuff is average. The poorest things in the gallery are the recent scripts because they are that scripts. So I am not sure about who know one is, because people seem to be reading and enjoying them, at least on FA. I know one person who has read and enjoyed two of them very well, me! For under a 100 watchers your doing fine. At the same time numbers mean nothing. The key is 1 person and more then 1 person is enjoying your work and that you are enjoying your art. Your work averages the same amount as mine usually (and though the watch list seems big a good percentage of my watchers are nonexistant.) I have no idea where else you post the work. And they are older too, with newer writing chops the work is enjoyed more.

Write what you want to write.

If it your doing best, people will come.

Sadly FA is not the best for writing. Though, yes, the community on FA is a bit more broken. I feel you on discussing of work like the older day in the fandom. I need to bridge that gap more myself. I don’t know anything besides wildcat and some of the villains. The superhero genre is difficult genre because breaking the tropes, especially the silver age mind set that it often gets locked into breaks it, when we get to far then it ceases to be the genre (the super hero). That is why I like “color of darkness” because it explored so much depth breaking trope, but still being the super hero. A very human element both in transformation between genders and between hero and mortal. Deer in the headlights was the opposite that life of what makes someone a villain in that world and why do we care or stop caring, tarnished dreams lost and “found.” These are powerful story telling things.
With the superhero thing? Maybe take a sit back in the world and think of it and its stories. That is another crux of superhero as genre is what is the story going to? As most do not have ends, as the comic industry likes its money.
If there are things you want to explore (other story concepts, worlds, stories), feel free to reach out through note.

Have you tried writing and joining the Thursday Prompt? https://www.furaffinity.net/user/thursdayprompt

Its good for just writing and connecting with the writing community. The more serious writers here that are more likely to interact with more serious writing.
FA is about finding your niche.

But what you are going through is natural writing growing pains. We all go through this. And it is easy here to feel that way. I feel it at times. But people here do care and you would be surprised.
I don’t know what the bar is, but new goals are healthy.

For me, the bar has always been "if I can post a story that gets people to talk in the comments" its a good story. That's what I've been trying to do when I read interesting stories, question or show advermation on some part of it that I enjoyed.

I haven't been reading a lot lately and I absolutely should be doing it more. However, I guess having that interactive goal might be a bit higher than I can manage in general. Both in supporting others and expecting it out of the work I do.

Also, I've seen Thursday writing prompts but I've been too intimidated to try it. Not about posting stories, I just don't feel like I have the focus or mind set to read what others write in return.

Well I share on that. At least one comment is a very good feeling. Most of the time it is just the rare friend who is commenting, which perhaps is the better feeling and truth for how many simply do not read.

In my regard I simply follow a rule if I have nothing to say, I have nothing to say. As someone who eats, breathes, craps, and bleeds/is writing I often don't have anything to say on a piece and that is ok.

Only happens when you do.

The prompt folk are very nice. You don't have to read all all of them. There are a lot of them nowadays. Just take it in stride. That sharing in engaging with others work is part of shtick of community though. As the bard said, stick the quill to the the sticking place and screw courage tight.
