Gush about your stories here!

I wanna hear why you love it. Not just 'go read it', why do YOU love it?

Also: How far are you from your next milestone? (I won't do sub4sub, but feel free to specify if you do)

Personally, I'm 8 subs away from 250 on my duology, A Crownes Game

And I love two things the most - my characters (especially the way they all interact), and specifically the way I made magic work (it's more elaborate in book 2 than book 1). I love love love watching my characters bloom as I write their stories, as they surprise me with decisions they would make, or things they'd say. Discovering the story though them has been an absolute pleasure! And the line between comfort and angst may be thin, but walking on that line is so fun.

I also love the abundance of night sky imagery! As someone working in astrophysics, it's so fun to explore that in a fictional setting! And the way dreams and nightmares are incorporated come straight from personal experience and writing it has become almost a guilty pleasure of mine.

My next milestone is to fill my plot list with content and finally achieve a peaceful mind to think clearly—haha!

I love listing out plot points, but lately, I’ve been struggling to fill in the content. I know I’m still far from completing it, but the most important thing is that I have a clear vision of where my story is headed and what will happen next. Sure, unexpected plot developments tend to pop up now and then, but I’m absolutely thrilled with the way my characters are growing, especially when it comes to their cunning and depth.

I’d say I’m about 12% into the plot, but in terms of my subscription goals, I’ve already hit 100 subs for this year! That’s a win I’m truly proud of, considering it only took 4-5 months. Seeing this progress makes me feel content and motivated to keep going.

Read it here:

Oh, I also managed to post one of my archive story and complete it so I have ongoing series and the completed novel this year

This is complete:

150 subs. I'm three subs away!

I love my story because it details the ups and downs of mental health and relationships in a really raw and emotional way. Sometimes it's sweet, sometimes it's sad, sometimes it's tragic. Rarely is it smooth sailing. Often people seriously hurt the people they love the most while really truly believing they're loving them as best as they possibly could. It's kind of heartbreaking, but I love the realism, and how the unusual narration allows the things the FL experience to become an almost visceral experience for the readers as well.

Thanks for this thread! And congrats on being close to your goal! I like how passionate you are about your story and characters! You're now one sub closer to 250 🤭

I love my comic "Signs Point to Bobbie" for a lot of reasons. I grew up reading newspaper funnies and slice of life manga, so I was happy to make something similar to what I love to read. I've had these characters for a decade now, so I've become very attached lol. My comic is great for a light hearted read if you're looking for some laughs!

I don't do sub4sub either, but I'm close to my goal of 400 if anyone is interested ^^

hi everyone! i'm fairly new to Tapas, so my goal for now is just to get my first readers and subs, and to also find the stories that i like to read!

what i like about my story is that 1. it's so immersive, writing it was like doing world-building because i had to come up with so many characters to populate the world and now i'm attached to all of them 2. i love my MCs and their dynamic, they are hilarious together, and their poor life choices set up the drama in the story in a way that i was surprised while writing it.

My next milestone is to hit 175 subscribers and I’m only 6 subs away

I always loved reading ,mostly manga branching out into reading novels. I loved reading and learning about these made up worlds from the author’s imagination, or bonding with the characters as if I knew them for years. My love reading led to me writing my own stories. At first it was cringy fan fics lol but then I decided to write my first story …it was a comic about a serial killer,unfortunately I had to put that on hiatus. Years later I joined a writing group where we wrote short stories based on a prompt. My novel started out as a short story and I ended up loving the character of Elyn and the world that she lived in that I knew that I had to continue on this journey. Thus The Lost Forest was born.

PoppyTheMerpasaur 2024-12-18 00:10:45 UTC #13

Hey all, currently aiming to get to 100 subs! I'm currently 62 away from such greatness <.<

Reaper’s Storm (the comic in question) is a post-apocalyptic story that follows the aftermath of a world-ending event known as “Rigor Mortis”. As eldritch monstrosities with an appetite for souls roam the land, our cast must fight tooth-and-nail for whatever light they can muster. It may seem hopeless, but worry not! In the face of desolation, a Firebird does not give up; they simply rise and try again.

Anyways, boring descriptions aside, I love it because it's just... ME. It's everything I grew up loving. Bittersweet tales of finding hope in the face of desolation, a cast with individual inner struggles, horrific monstrosities that are an affront to nature, and an overarching story that ends in a cataclysmic world-ending scenario. Plus a lot of action sequences that have you biting your nails! It's why I fell in love with Attack on Titan, and it's something I've always aspired to create myself. Will I succeed? Who knows! But you bet I'll try my best, and I hope you all will join me on this wild ride :>

Just got you to 40! Congrats!

Kiro and Raven is my ultimate story! I've been working on it since I was twelve years old! As a person with autism, I always had a hard time making friends, but books always made me feel connected. I went on adventures next to heroes to defeat villains trying to destroy countries, and experienced various emotions and friendships through them too. I became inspired to write early in life! Embarrassingly I am not gifted in writing so I started off horribly, but I fell in love with the process of story creation as I continued working on it. It took a lot of courage and encouragement from my family to put my story online and I am glad that they did convince me. My next milestone for Kiro and Raven is to get to 90 subscribers. By the end of the year, I am hoping for 100!

KennethLopezJr921 2024-12-18 19:42:11 UTC #18

I was gonna say 250 subs but Im faaaaar away from that milestone. So I guess I'll go for 210 subs, which I probably get once I can post episodes again! Speaking of, Im also close to reaching 15 episodes in total! With said episode coming out sometime early next year guaranteed!

OH! and probably like 25k views. Im at 23.6K right now
