I always keep thinking about whether or not i should revive this tumblr. It feels like my followers are kind of inactive. Also, i actually finished my Masters degree last week. However, as you all know, the situation in arts and culture and music is kind of bad, so i do have a really bad chance of getting a job. I‘m still hunting for a job, so i’ve got a lot of time to kill at the moment. I kind of want to study something, but then again, i just want tonread and relax, because the past years have been so so stressful. Maybe i’m going to slowly change into a litblr, as i do have quite some books to photograph and read.

Incase anyone was wondering
If you use this, please invite me to read y'all’s writing
Does anyone know how this works if you are looking to try the traditional publishing route? Would it be an issue if you tried to get an agent if the book was on the internet on a site like this?
I looked it up, coz it sounds really cool! It seems like your book stays private, so you can only invite people to look at it, like you would a Google Doc. I imagine there’s no issues with agents then, as it’s not available to the general public.
Reblogging from the previous note, because if you want to be professionally published, you MUST be very careful in how you share your work online. If it is readily available in full for all to see, it may be viewed as previously published and therefore rejected.
As long as this company ensures you content is private and not considered published in any way, it may be safe to use, but always check these things out thoroughly before you use them if you want to go the traditional publishing route!
Yay!! Love sites like this! It also makes me think of royalroadl.com and tapas app but those two aren’t as constructive feedback oriented and more just shots for burgeoning writers to post their work (not sure about privacy and ownership either but it’s very public facing). So just wanted to add this one to those as well ^.^
