For those who have many watchers, and for those who don’t have many, it is hard to know how one retains that interest as well as receive more. This article explores the basics of watchers and how we react to certain situations. Although it does not affect some deviants, and the tips are generally related to common sense, we hope the article is a worthwhile read and that the majority learn something from reading this.

Critiques
The main trouble I'm having is with the photograph in the background. It doesn't quite mesh with the style of the foreground, making the whole thing look kind of tacked on and disconnected, especially since there's no real middle ground. It's cartoon-style dragon, then bam, realistic photograph with nothing in between them to serve as a buffer. I think it would help this piece a lot if the style was consistent throughout. Combining a drawn piece with a photograph is really difficult to make look convincing.
You may also want to consider bringing some of the blue from the sky into the dragon and mountain, in their shadows. Instead of the black shading on the trees and mountain side, it might help to "air" them out a little if you touch them with a hint of bluish grey.
