Here is the link to the site:
I’ve used the site Campfire two years ago, but ended up not sticking with it. I decided to go back when I learned that the site has a self-publishing feature which I heard a bit about, never put too much thought into that.
So, I thought I would check it out to see what is new and more. The last time I was there, I wasn’t able to understand it, that was when my mental health was failing me more than it is now, though nothing has changed on that part.
I logged in again to change things a bit.
Now, I have two places where I can work on my stories, Hive words and Campfire.
I will have issues with sticking with them on a regular basis, but those two options are there for when I need it.
I honestly never thought they would go with the route of self-publishing, then again I am out of the loop on certain things. LOL!
I am not publishing now, I am nowhere near done to do that.
However, I can flesh out my characters and world and even more for my novel projects.
Thoughts and feelings?

Whatever choice you do, it will cost money. You need to always remember this.

Yeah, I know now.
But Campfire is that last thing I go to for help.
Since the free version is limited in a way.

Never used it… Might look into it for future reference though…

I’m not crazy about flashy word processors and story-building platforms. I personally don’t find them any more helpful than Docs. I use a wiki for storing info only because it feels cool to click and watch my entries appear. It doesn’t really make a difference to my writing. If anything, it’s extra work.
If I had to choose between publishing on either Campfire or Hive, I’d choose Campfire; I think it’s more popular.

Where are these types of wikis? Which sites?
Forgive my stupidity.
I think there’s one called World Anvil? or something. I know it costs, but it’s a one-time purchase, and I’ve thought about it in the past, but I do really like my word doc method

Idk about Campfire much. I think I’ve heard about it once because gamer YouTuber talked about it to help them build their gaming world they were trying to create or something. Not entirely sure.

TiddlyWiki. It’s a free program. Got a bit of a learning curve

So, you can make wikis there, huh?

Update:
I know NOTHING about Javascript, now I’m unsure.
I did hear about Obsidian, yet never ventured there.
I guess my only two options are Google Docs or writing it down on scrap paper or perhaps both.

Might I suggest Scrivener? It is the digital version of a ring binder.

I couldn’t get used to Scrievner/did not vibe with it.
Not trying to force you into Scrivener if you don’t like it, I just find that many people didn’t understand Scrivener the first time they tried it out. It’s pretty robust and customisable, so you can make it any way you like. Even if you just use it for holding notes
Otherwise, I hope you find something that works!

I do have Hivewords, though it is an on and off thing. There’s also Milanote too.
I might go back to Milanote soon enough.
I understand. It’s just not my thing for some reason.
Can’t explain it.
