>>55430836I appreciate that you have stuck around in these threads and hope that inspiration eventually leads you to satisfactory completion. Last time I peeked into these threads, you mentioned about having completed chapter 13 of your unreleased story O/C. Hopefully, writer's block did not hold you back, but if it did, then no rush. Quality writing is what left this lasting impact on me.

I thank you, cge0361, for your stories as they genuinely changed my life in the sense of how I use my spare time. They were my introduction to amateur fiction and also led me to discover writer and artist groups on a hidden, off-topic 4chan board. Even today, I dedicate my free time towards participating in these groups, albeit no longer as much towards the Pokemon side.
I read your stories with zero knowledge of the games or anime side of Pokemon and only knew whatever information coomers popularized, so I had to constantly cross-reference the Pokedex and Bulbapedia. Regardless, your writing was excellent enough to hold my interest, and for a moment, I even thought that Speech TMs and Ocimene were canonical to the franchise.
Whichever anons linked D/P in those 2 New Years's Mienshao threads, perhaps it was even (You), that link alone changed how I would spend the rest of 2023, for the better, as without that link, I would have never known that there were writers (and artists) on 4chan.
To the other writers here, there is no shame in linking your stories in relevant threads as long as you do not spam or be annoying about it. You never know who might read your story and what impact you will leave on readers.
For a while, I had an unhealthy one-way obsession with you, cge, but something else eventually took that place (pic related.) Either way, you still remain personally special to me for being the first 4chan author I read from along with the reasons stated above. I learned some useful literature advice by reading your posts on the Palanq /vp/ archive.
Thank you, again.
