So, the Experiment's over! Success, Painfully so. (READ)
10 years ago
So, some of you may remember this journal: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/7099927/ And thusly, you'll recall me saying I had made another account to produce other types of stories on. I decided, since I liked the general idea of Transformations, to base a few stories right around those and post them here...
Jikken
Yeah, I have an NSFW account now. Whoop-de-fucking-do. But it exists, and it certainly gets my writing massively more known.
To Compare...
The Trials of Cenric is my current massive project, my Epic if you will. It gets around 30 views on average per part. Painfully.
The first story I wrote under the guise of Jikken- five pages- received... yeah- 650 views. In one month! The others are at similar numbers.
It took my four years to gain 130-ish watchers here, many of them pulled in by raffles. Four years... that's about 2 and a half per month.
Under Jikken, I got 10 watchers. In one month. That rate kept up for four years, the watchers would shove this poor account into the ground.
The most favorites I ever got on one piece I made wasn't even a story but a pencil piece, at 7. That took a few months.
The first story under Jikken has 14. Twice the favorites, a third of the time.
And keep this in mind. I have never, ever been directly asked without prompting them, been asked if I do commissions.
Under Jikken, it's happened twice.
So, you can see why I'm pissed off. I wrote these tiny stories with little effort- four of them each about five pages, and done in one or two sittings a piece- and they've gotten more than twenty times the views of the epic I've been working on for More than a year!
I need somewhere else to post my stuff. Somewhere where I can actually find people easily that give a shit. I know I have a few readers here, but it's not enough. I want to know what people think about my writing, I'm a guy who likes critique. And I get nearly none of it. You guys know anywhere to post that may have better luck? Seriously.
Oh, don't say SoFurry. I've tried there and it's even worse.
Once again, the NSFW account that arose from this experiment is Jikken. Feel free to take a look.
Thanks,
Yori

OP
I really hope it does. I've been writing for five years now, and counting. I have multiple novels. For fuck's sake, someone's got to like them somewhere.
