I'm feeling a little discouraged right now because I'm working on a somewhat long fill and the OP only commented once at the beginning and I have no idea if they like the direction I'm taking the fill in now. I'm gonna keep writing because it seems like a couple other people are following along, but I really want to know what the OP thinks! :/ /wangst

Which fill? I only read fills once they're complete, so maybe the OP of yours is the same? Also, did you link it on the fills post?

Oh, no I hadn't even thought of doing that yet! I feel kinda silly now. :-[

The one I'm working on is the Yavin IV warrior traditions prompt.

Yeah, that's one I'm waiting to be finished before reading. Definitely link on the fills post, that's the only way to track fills on DW, threads can't be tracked or something. If your fill isn't linked in the fills post, it's just getting washed past in the flood.

Just did, thanks for the tip! I usually don't link until I'm done with them.

HOPE YOU LIKE IT OP, WHEREVER YOU ARE.
