I can't really believe that I'm starting to narrow in towards the end of a story, re: press_start. I've always had my head in the clouds trying to make things, slap ideas together, and never been able to really sit down and do it. At the least, I'd always been worried about how it might be received.
After over 130,000 words I really see that people seem to like what I make, and even if it isn't ~super amazing awesome~ writing from a technical standpoint or story, I still feel good having been able to make it at all. The snippets of stories I've released and little one-shots have all helped me build momentum up to making one of my dreams and it's nice to see people giving it the time of day, let alone actually enjoying it.
