To keep everything organized, it would be best to post it in the comments.
Only the people interested in the writing prompt would see it though.
- This is a disadvantage for whales, since their large following won't be notified of their story.
- However, this is an advantage for 'minnows'. Their story will be seen by all the people interested in the writing prompt, which is typically more than their small following.
In general, I would like to see more conversation and discussion on all posts on Steemit. So I would definitely post my story in the comments and not as it's own post.
Why not post it on your own and then a link in the comments?
I would prefer to just see all the responses to a prompt on one page instead of having to click on several links. This is the way it's done on Reddit as well. This works wonderfully. (example)
Of course, this is my opinion and @anarcho-andrei seems to disagree and prefer links as well. To each his own.
#ambivalent!
Since Scott originally expressed wanting more of a reddit type experience this makes sense. It's just the endless scrolling! I like to right click each link and open in new tab. Helps me think. Writers sure are funny with their preferences. Keeps things varied. Good luck on this endeavor :D
