The worst part about the state of Destiny and micro transactions is that the gameplay is still fun

I'm thinking of changing the name of The Devil's Luck to something else, though I don't want to do it if my readers won't like it.
          
          Been thinking about This Fire, Through Fire, and Swallow the Flame, or something flora based to go along with Fiore's flower theme. Purple Reign, Purple Rain, or any other song/music reference are also welcome to suggestion if anyone has it
          
          Any suggestions? Yay or nay?

I don't know who needs to hear this, but if you're worried about something not coming out as good as you want it and you feel your inner perfectionist screaming over every little detail, just fucking send it.
          
          These later chapters of TDL have been especially nerve wracking for me now that I'm writing lines and interactions for canon characters. Dialogue has never been a strong suit for me, whether internal, external, between groups or just two people, whatever. I always feel like it's where I'm weakest when I write, and now that I'm handling characters that are loved by a fan base I'm part of, that feeling of inadequacy has been rising.
          
          That's partially why uploads have been slower...
          
          But! A common experience that's been happening with each chapter lately has been me writing the chapter, feeling unconfident in it but publishing it anyway because I want to give my audience their weekly read. And something happens where after copy pasting the text from Google Docs and uploading it where those worries just vanish. 
          
          It's like my brain just says "It's out there, it's already been read by at least one person and it's too late to change it entirely so don't worry about it at all." 
          
          This might not work for everyone, but it's still worth a shot. So, like I said, just try and fucking send it. Throw it with no plans of catching it

Does anyone else read Y/n L/n stories as Yin Lin or something like that instead of actually going to the effort of inserting a name?
