Hey all, it's been a minute since I've wrote anything long-form so I decided to give that a shot. I haven't always been the most confident in my writing abilities and I'll admit that is partially why I stick to smaller servers. I just wanted to see if this was any good or not. Maybe people would want to see more of these solos from a complicated character's perspective?

Idk, I'm just looking for critique and opinions.

Yo! I haven't read the piece yet but I will. And I can send you constructive critique in your DMs if you'd like. Let me know what level of critique you're looking for tho!

Also in case it was ever in question, you can join the writing challenge/contest I posted - although full disclosure I'm only giving people positive feedback/telling people what I like about their submissions because a.) positive feedback is just easier and b.) I feel like it, lol.

Howeva lemme know if you want a deeper dive on your piece later on. I can't promise I'll be super fast but I'll do it!

Also the answer to "should I write more" is always you bet your booty, absolutely yes.

Glad to see you writing and posting longform on here! Keep doing it!

Edits because I literally just woke up and haven't had coffee yet and what are words, lol.**

I would definitely appreciate any sort of feedback! You don't have to do any deep diving unless you want too. I just want to know how people feel about it. Thank you!
