Hello fellow RPers.
Forgive me for a bit of a broader post, but I've been sitting on this for a few months now. I've wanted to share a roleplay between a friend and I as a reading piece, and while I've had a couple of friends express their interest, it hasn't exactly been approached more than a "sure that sounds cool." I've had a recent realization that what gives me joy in the RP world is knowing that someone is actually reading what I've worked on and giving their thoughts through acknowledgement, whether it be OOC or in character. I thought maybe it would be a decent attempt to post chapters to a public space, but the very thought for some reason just locks me.
On RPnation specifically, I've glanced at a handful of people's stories and I've found them quite talented and imaginative. But I can't seem to give it a try on my own because of the fear behind it. I'm not quite sure what this hesitation stems from, but I'm more or less curious from one writer to another to perhaps jump over this hurdle. What gives you that drive to share your work to strangers so freely? I find it incredibly inspiring, but I still end up in my own dead end with it whenever I attempt.
For clarity sake, this isn't about a fear with roleplaying with another and what the partner would respond with. I'm specifically targeting the idea of sharing the written work openly with others not involved.
Thank you for your time, and I hope you're all having a good day.
