Are you finished reposting?

I've seen two people declare that they have finished reposting their material from Cohost to Dreamwidth.  Are you finished?  Comment below with your accomplishment in case folks are trying to follow the reposts.

So far I have managed to transfer all of the existing entries from my Transgressions Fiction posts. It was nice to clean them up a bit, but I'm glad to have the opportunity to focus on writing new entries soon. I have one I've wanted to craft for a while currently in the works.

I'm still wondering if I ought to bring over all of the Genie Lore posts that I wrote up. Mostly because they were usually very brief, and usually replies to asks submitted via Cohost. Formatting might be quite wonky as a result, and each individual post might seem meager and uninteresting. I'm thinking about finding a way to compile relevant entires together, and include the asks somehow. Perhaps! I am still feeling it out.

Go you!

That's quite an accomplishment.

Go for it!

I would say yes. Save all you can. It helps keep Cohost culture alive on Dreamwidth.

You could always batch them together. I post haiku that way because they are small. But people do use Dreamwidth for microblogging. Some posts are just "I found this cool link" and 100-word drabbles are very popular.

I suggest a tag for Asks, possibly with subcategories like Asks: Genie Lore. This is especially helpful if you want to make an Askbox post like some people are doing. Dreamwidth does have some ask customs but they are different, like "Ask me anything" posts or "Ask me a question from this list." Adding the Cohost version would expand options, which is generally a good thing.
