Yeah, I'm definitely going out of my way to try to comment more -- I actually got back into a pretty good writing groove after some Circumstances devastated my Tumblr follower count and I felt more liberated to literally just write whatever the fuck I wanted. That, luckily, seems to have carried over to this site, along with the fact that oh thank Primus, a site that works in mobile.
It's just... write write write, work work work, trying to deliberately push myself out of that comfort zone where passive interaction and the mere exposure effect did most of the work for me to a space where it's Totally Allowed to be like "yeah, this convo is good -- lemme link to one I've had about this elsewhere on the site".
I do really enjoy collaborative writing, I'm now on a bunch of Discord servers that have meta/hc/worldbuilding channels for us to roll around an idea as a group until it takes shape. DW is just that, except I don't have to worry about "missing out" since it's not even in real time.
(although maybe I should try the homework thing too, considering how well the Daily Tarot Card thing makes me just sit my ass down and write)
