[Melani3]

Answering a few more questions:

You CAN share your story for proofreading/before it’s published!
All 4 characters do not need to have choices associated with their actions.
Your characters do not need to be friends.

Does your story have to have a certain number of reads to be considered for winning? I believe it is 100, but can anyone confirm this?

Episode Explained: Reader Retention

Hello Episodians, This edition of Episode Explained looks at how Reader Retention works! Reader retention (also called reader engagement) is a measure of how well a story keeps people reading. Episode uses this measure for our own stories, to help determine contest winners and for picking stories on weekly shelves. We look at the number of people who start a story and compare that to the number of people who finish each chapter. The more people who finish each chapter, the higher your retentio…

welcome to the forums

[GoldenWaves]

Has anyone lost motivation since starting?

[Farah_DeSantis]

yes you can share your story before publishing

[erosinair]

I definitely have. I was so inspired at first. I don’t know what’s happened…it’s just not coming back to me.

I don’t know, I recently got mine back, but its been slow. I try listening to music that for the theme I’m going for to stimulate motivation, I’m thankfully finishing my third episode, but I have so much revision to do.

But you guys got this, 27th seems far, but when coding its really not. Try to get back in the rhythm of things your own way.

[lanafrazer_episode]

Totally agree, and that’s what I am doing right now. Finishing up episode 2 then moving on to 3, finally. XD

[Epi_holic]

Hey, thank you so much

[GoldenWaves]

If you need any help with revision I can help out!
(Since we’re both almost done, I don’t see a security problem. I don;t think Id have the energy anyway)
