Forums


If you would like to join the conversation, leave a comment, give some feedback, or just plain have a chat with me about whatever’s on your mind, you are welcome to do so via the following forums:


Substack - This also serves as my newsletter, but is a great platform for commenting, discussing, and chatting, too. Subscribe for free to leave comments on individual posts and participate in the chat forum.

Discord - This is where the Otherspect Storytelling and Discussion Forum is hosted. You can create a profile and join for free. Discord allows community members not only to chat, discuss, comment, and so on, but to do stuff like upload photos, create voice chat rooms, and more. It's a pretty versatile platform—made famous as a gamers’ hangout, yes, but I find its interface and functionality quite excellent for serving as a discussion / chat forum. Better than most dedicated chat forum hosts, in fact.


And if you like, join both! Again, these platforms are completely free.
