What I wish I knew before trying stories

I had a disappointing first try, a surprisingly good second try, and then a third attempt that taught me humility. So, naturally, I now have opinions.

Context: I am not an expert, just someone trying to make Ask Orbit feel less intimidating. I wrote down what worked, what felt awkward, and what I would do differently next time.

I appreciate the honest middle stage, not just the polished ending. The low-effort version is probably the keeper.

That last line is excellent. I would love to see a follow-up after 2 weeks. I needed this reminder today.
