Current story, Burnout issues, and ideas are welcome

Hi, Gemtail.

1. Sometimes to combat burnout, you must simply take a break. Writer's block is a common thing that happens to writer's, even veterans. If you still want to try to write, I would try putting yourself in your world. Think about the world's happenings and how things carry out naturally according to the laws of said world. Basically, take some time for reflection and meditation.

2. You can post your fic here for sure, but don't expect a huge amount of people to slobber all over it. There are many many topics in the Literature Library that consist of people updating their fics and that's it. You must find the motivation mostly in yourself and if this project is really something you wish to invest love and time into.

3. Something very perilous would be great. Those situations are always emotional and can invest the readers greatly, especially in the rescuer who would go through a heavy trial to save a life.

 

I agree with the suggestions above, although I understand what you mean about a following helping you to get the motivation to keep going. I don't personally know about fiction, only being an artist, but I believe it might be quite hard to develop followings for writing, even more so than other things, so it might take time.

If you'd like anything proof read, I can do so though (well, whilst I'm on holidays at least), my background in non-fiction is still useful for that much at least :'D
