Hey Aleu,

Wanna start by apologizing for the late(-ish) reply; to be honest, I haven’t been active on this site since late 2015, from what I remember. I’m thankful to see that people still come here and write, though. That’s honestly awesome to see, as this site has given me so much over the years.

However, I’m not here to tell you about my experience here... you’ve got a story you want to get off the ground, and I’m wanting to help! I know that the guidelines of the site state that you can’t post WIPs, so getting criticism/feedback prior to the public release is pretty tricky. Thankfully, other means of social media exist! While you can’t share the unfinished product on this site, you can, however, share the story via other means.

The best way to contact me outside of here (although my friends may beg to differ) is through Discord. This not only is a more direct line to me, but also a way to share the document with others (such as myself) in order to get the feedback you need. I’d recommend giving that a try, especially as I want to help see your stuff through. It reminds me of a storyline I came up with before leaving the site, but never touched beyond some early planning. So, I’m very curious to see what you do!

My Discord username is 65 Roses#1534, so if you ever get around to seeing this post, I’d love to have a more direct way to help out, especially if feedback on an unfinished work is the main priority. Life’s become pretty busy for me since leaving the site, but I’ll definitely help out when/where I can.

I appreciate you reaching out to me, it’s very flattering! With any luck, we’ll be in touch soon. Asking for help is never easy, but it’s the first step to getting that new perspective on your work in order to bring it to the next level. I look forward to hearing from you, whether it’s on Discord or here.

All the best, Sshakenbakee
