Thanks a lot @melinda010100. It means a lot to me that it has this page turner effect as I am going to start work on a novel soon, maybe set in this Fantasy creation which I have pages and pages of sub-creation work already done. I even have a map. I'm going to go whole hog and get it written and submitted to the major Fantasy publishing houses ASAP. Seems like there is no time like the present. I think I might use a stop watch to spur me on, 20 mins/chapter lol, it seems to have worked with these weekend freewrites ✍ 🙂
Yeah, I have thought about self publishing, and in fact, a friend of mine has written a fantasy novel which he has had to self publish. He tried going the trasditional route first and I think I'll follow suit and keep self publishing here on steemit with shorter pieces set in that world. I'm not into the idea of publishing chapters of a novel here on steemit, I see a lot of others doing it which is cool but I'm gonna buck the trend I think😉 Thanks for your comment and encouragement @mariannewest
Thanks a lot @melinda010100. It means a lot to me that my prose provokes such a reaction. The many positive reactions to my fiction have inspired me to pick up an old project of mine - I am going to start work on a novel soon, probably set in this Fantasy creation which I have pages and pages of sub-creation work already done. I even have a map. I'm going to go whole hog and get it written and submitted to the major Fantasy publishing houses ASAP. Thanks again for your encouragement and visit 🙂 ✍
Wow, thanks a lot @snook for your wonderful compliment. It means a lot to me that my story provokes such a reaction. The many positive reactions have convinced me to continue with my fantasy writing both here on steemit and in mainstream publishing 🙂 ✍
Will do @snook. I will drop a link in this comment as you have asked me directly 😉 I think about a week away for a longer short story set in the same fantasy world. I just finished the second section of what I think is gonna be a good 3000 word story.
I've been summoned by @snook ;-) Your freewrite is sophisticate and gave me an interesting sense of both repulsion and curiosity while reading..In a way it reminds me some Cronenberg movies. Please drop the link for me too @raj808 and compliments for your vivid imagination.
It's very easy dear friend as I checked the mentions option in my setting account page..try to download the browser extension from @armandocat if you didn't already. It's very useful 😉
I don't usually do this @snook but as you said you loved this fantasy fiction story and wanted me to let you know when there was more from this world... well here it is. Better late than never ;-)
I really should think about doing these free write challenges, but there's just not enough time in the day. Sigh
This was really entertaining! Thanks for sharing @raj808! Very much enjoyed the visuals, if they were a little... morose? ahah
I certainly think this is a world worth revisiting! Why is our protagonist a slave? how did this come about? What is this power that they hold to become red death? Very interesting indeed!
You should give the freewrites a go @mikepm74. I couldn't recommend them more for getting the creative juices flowing. Maybe just one each week at first, get into the swing of things 😉 Thanks for checking out the story, I'm glad you enjoyed it

Also, think of self-publishing. I really have to work on this blog post with resources. Definitely, this story is a pageturner!

now how did you find where I tagged you?@f3nix it's one of the Steemit mysteries I don't understand :(
