Astounding Steemit Stories Volume 5
Astounding Steemit Stories
September 29th 2017
From the Author: "This is a tale from a time long before my main narrative. Before all the races expanded across the planet, established relations, and fought wars. Before the gods were just legends. This is just one character’s glimpse of a historical milestone".
"As usual with anything I post, everything is original content including the artwork unless specifically stated".

@josephlwiess, J.L. Wiess joined steemit on 2017-09-04, so another very new user. His Journeys prologue story is going along quite nicely. His little blog info is = "Observer of the human condition, Aspiring writer (fiction and reality), Caring human being." Let us help him become in actuality a Writer of Fiction and Reality. We all have an unquenching thirst for something good to read, and from the first 5 parts of his story, it is a good thing to be thirsty, you just want more and more.

I have not had the chance yet to scroll back through John's page, but man if his other stories are as good as this one was I am going to have a very happy reading winter.
Storytellers and Authors from previous entries. They keep writing, and I keep reading.

Rob J Meijer @pibara, is still requesting assistance: "In order to improve the quality of my upcoming novel Ragnarok Conspiracy, I am looking for beta readers and I'm calling in the help from @croupierbot to try and get some useful quality enhancing feedback. Here is the link to his Monthly Beta Reading Contest Contest will be running for the next 5 months so he is taking a long view on his story and want to put out his best effort. So lend him a hand and participate. Hey he's asking for those typo's to be pointed out. The stories are very good, and you get to read them twice, pleasure read, the critical eye read.
I would really really like to talk about some of the stories I have been reading, of the stories that have been wrapped up, of the new stories starting, but I am pretty tired, and this is a rather long post. Remember, recheck those Authors,see what new and wonderful places they will carry you away to next.
Improvements and or suggestions, feel free to make them in the comments section; and a great big thank you to all the authors out there, for providing me with reading enjoyment.

Are you a new writer, looking for edit help, or writing help. @michelle.gent has a lot of how 2's on her page, and if you want to see a glimpse of her editing visit here. How I edit my own work
Resteemed and upvoted!
Thank you for that. I have exceeded my previous issue view count, Got 25 views now instead of previous high of 23. It grows, slowly.
Awesome! Thanks @bashadow for featuring me in your steemit mag. An honor that others wish to draw more readers to my posts. Part 3 of Galdor's tale is in the works, so keep your eyes peeled. Still trying to settle on the art for this one...
Hello aksounder, I just wanted to let you know that @pibara has started a new fiction writers lottery for minnow authors, that you may be interested in. He is working with the minnowboosters people on this. Here is the link to the contest.
Sounds interesting. I'll definitely look into it, thanks for the heads up! I'd say you're my most loyal fiction reader right now and really appreciate it.
it's an interesting story. The more people that see a writer's work, the better. I don't want a potentially great writer to give up because they did not get exposure. Contest are a great exposure avenue for new writers. If you are uncomfortable nominating yourself, nominate one of the writers above, and they may nominate one of yours. I would love to nominate all of you, but I do not feel that would be right, because someone else may want to nominate one that I already did, to show there support for that writer. It is a bad conundrum for me.
Well I won't shy away from a little self promotion. I read the details and nominated myself, so thanks again for the heads up. That's the goal: more eyes reading your work. That's why I like comments probably more than upvotes; reader interaction is great and spurs me on.
Part 4 should be done with writing and editing by Wednesday, we'll see how the art comes along. If it's not up Wednesday I'm shooting for Thursday.
Good, cant get exposure sitting in the closet.LoL.
You're very welcome. Most issues were only seeing 21-23 views, I hope this one does a little bit better, but if not it does not matter, I still have a list of Authors to read. I will be looking forward to the next chapter. Every day I open this blog, and run through all my authors to see what they have to read, sometimes 3 or 4 times a day.
O-kay people, @pibara has concluded his first contest. I got the lucky draw, winners announced below.
@pibara is still looking for assistance, It is your chance to be a welcomed word and grammer natzi. the stories are real good people, so two bonus, a good read, and a chance to win.
Hi, @bashadow
Thank you for inviting me to this page.
I am your friendly incorruptible croupier.
I am sorry for the inconvenience, but ',' is not a command I currently understand.
