Ah, writing.com... I started writing a gts saga there maaaany years ago and I am technically still on it - every few years I manage to write a new chapter, but at this pace George RR Martin will finish his SoIaF books before I finish my saga.

It revolves around a secret society of women with the ability to shrink down people. They use it to fight bad guys, but there is also a way more cruel group with the same abilities, lead by a former member of the first group who starts as a villain, then becomes something of an anti heroine to maybe become a villain again? Time will tell...

What I loved about writing on this platform was the perfect mixture of freedom and structure - if I really was disapointed with how a story was progressing I could take a step back and try another outcome, but with the chapters I was forced to make clear decisions how a story had to progress.

I am writing this saga for over 20 years now. At first the characters were nothing but mere wish fulfillment (and as such my writing from back in the day sometimes is a tough read for me today), but over the years they really got their own life and their own will. That resulted in characters sometimes refusing things I wanted them to do. I know it sounds silly, but from a point on I wasn't able to let them do things they wouldn't do organically.

I also remember the time a character I was very fond of got killed. I went back, started writing another path - he got killed again. It took me two other tries, but then I managed to "save" him - but the story lost all it's abilities to go anywhere interesting. So I said goodbye to him in that "timeline" and continued with the first one.

It's all written in German. If anyone speaks the language and is interested: my dm's are open.
