RE: Wisdom sometimes lies in recognizing when something isn’t working ...
Hey, John,
Thanks for the "shout-out." ;)
I wish I knew someone inside Hallmark... <Deep Sigh>
If old-style technology is bubblegum for the eye, then what are computers and social media—Red Bull for the mind?
I wish; but it's true that people, increasingly, are not reading or are reading less... But, might you be throwing in the towel too soon?
Are you aware that @everittdmickey seems to be having considerable success with a novel of his? I think if you were to visit his blog and do a sum of all the payouts on TEOTWAWKI, you might choose to hang in there?
Of course, Steemit payouts are nothing if they're not inconsistent...
As always, I wish you the best, my friend. ;)
It's not just the payouts creatr but I was having so much difficulty loading if from Word, then having to reformat it for this site (shorter paragraphs, changes in content) and then searching for and adding appropriate images etc. After all that, seeing only a few views made me realize that I would have had to shorten chapters to the length of TEOTWAWKI, but then I planned to do it in 21 days for Christmas. It just had too many probs to work this time.
honestly, creatr, shorter pieces are what work here, but novels are written at a more leisurely pace and I'd have to specifically write a novel with chapters designed for this medium and audience rather than for print media which is my usual genre
and if you're going to do a novel on here, then each chapter has to be an episode leaving the reader hanging with a "to be continued" notice at the end
Understood! :)
BTW, I wrote another Christmas story you might like about the true meaning of Christmas - it's for a Christmas story contest @stevecoins
