I'm looking for more folks to follow on here, so I'd love some recommendations. SPECIFICALLY: I am looking for folks who do long-form writing, essays, or journaling.
Thx <3

in reply to @ChevyRay's post:
maaaaybe me? i occasionally write little rough essays and my stories tend to fit much much more into short story than microfic (and to series as well).
recent bit of writing:

self-recommendations are perfectly fine, if they fit the bill! Thanks!

And ofc it's cohost, so figure you don't vibe can always just unfollow.
@bruno is a fallen londen dev who longposts about fallen london, game design, and other topics. his more frequent shortposts are good too
@cathoderaydude is old tech youtuber who occasionally longposts about things he finds in his research
@critdistance does a weekly newsletter of games crit writing from around the internet. they post a link to it here each week, and they've linked to good games crit on cohost in past newsletters
@alyaza longposts on various topics regularly, and also posts from the books they're reading
there are more, but those are a few favorites that came to mind right now.
Gonna lead with a self-recc here, I'm a gamedev/massage therapist but I've found I really enjoy using Cohost for longform essay-writing. Here's a sampling!
- This recent series about Forgotten Realms novels, through the lens of having spent over a year reading through my 60-book teenage collection
- I really miss Bitstrips
- I have a lot of opinions about optimal porn game design
- A reply in which I talk a lot about sex scene writing
- An ask response talking about pain as a construct
As for other people not yet mentioned by other commenters
- I think @shel is pretty indispensible, lots of really great writing about Judaism, disability, and queer community
- @sarahzedig has a lot of excellent writing, as well as great regular roundups of video essays
- @ponett has some nice blog posts
- You probably already know @lutz but if you don't he's great
- @autumn does some excellent longform writing about games
- @iro has been known to do goodposts of his own, but also has been doing monthly roundups of his favorite posts on here
Here's some folks whose cohost writing I love:
@lotus
@iro
@littlerat
@Campster
@vaporware
I also do it myself! Collected all in this tag: https://cohost.org/kylelabriola/tagged/blogofkylelab
Meredith Gran @granulac is on here now. She's interesting, and is posting updates from her work on her next game, Perfect Tides 2.
