Just wanted to let you guys know that I am still alive.
Haven't posted much in the past months because of life. I now don't have much time to make the stories, but I do want to come back eventually. I don't know when that time will come but hopefully you guys stick around long enough to find out :)

I am taking one week of vacation, which means that for the next 7 days, for the first time since the beginning of the channel, there won't be any shorts!
Happy Holidays Everyone!

In the end, I decided to keep both the longform and shorts on this channel.
The Poll I've done was 50-50 so I have to make the final call. I think growth will be faster this way and it just makes it much easier for me.
We're still a small channel, maybe when we get bigger we'll do another poll

I'm having second thoughts on splitting the channel into 2.
The original idea was to make it so that the people who are strictly interested in one type and not the other doesn't have to have both show up in their feed.
But looking at the stats of both stats. I don't think that's really a problem. The content from the Longform and the Shorts is similar enough that most of the time, it will interest both.
I see pros and cons on both side so i'd love to have your input on it.

I have made the decision to separate longer stories to another channel.
This channel here will be entirely dedicated to bite-sized creepypasta

TL;DR: I'm thinking of splitting longform and shorts into two different channels, Thoughts ?
I am thinking of splitting my content into two different channels. The main reason for that change is that I think shorts audience and longer video audience are different. I might be wrong but I do think that someone that is interested in the bite-size horror that I post everyday might not want to sit through a 10 min narration.
Youtube themselves has mentioned in the past to separate content formats when audience doesn't overlap and shorts and longform rarely share behavior.
I'm still weighting the pros and cons of doing this. I'm thinking that maybe in this channel the audience does overlap, I'm not too sure.
I would love to hear your thoughts about this.
