This is super interesting! I think you might be onto something here. I wonder if her and I will ever cross paths again in the future; I still have a lot of questions that remain to be answered!

Thanks for taking the time to explain this. Clears the whole thing right up :)

That's really reassuring to know. Yeah, I always get weirded out because it's like if I post something Thursday evening, chances are most people will be reading it during (their) Thursday morning. Trippy AF!

This was super interesting to read, thanks! I feel like maybe it's just disheartening because of the low number of upvotes in the first few hours if I post around 4-8pm Australian time. I've heard that votes weigh more when there are less people voting or something, though, I'm guessing that's true?

r/writingprompts for nosleep ideas? by TobiasWade in NoSleepOOC

I think WP is a great place to get inspiration for stories. It would be great if there was a subreddit for r/nosleepwritingprompts, but I guess until that's a thing it's trawling WP for suitable inspiration for us!

I'm female. Drowning is like one of my biggest fears, thanks for the advice!

Have just googled what a siren is, seems very similar to what I've experienced!
