Spent time writing chapters for a story I'm not even posting yet and made a cover for it. Yeah, I see why I'm behind my editing schedule all the time ... It was fun though
Finished my wordcount for the month just in time with a couple of minutes to go ~ Still behind on edits but whatever. I didn't even think I could do this so this is awesome!
Okay, I guess it's time to officially panic now. 41k words to go until the end of the month with no focus or motivation to speak of. Thank you very much, depression, that was really what I needed to feel better
The problem with making up for a backlog is that each day, two or three new chapters need to be written and edited as well. The risk of the backlog getting bigger is so huge Or in other words: My backlog is still 12 chapters long, they just happen to all be of the same project now
Managed to hit my word count goal last month but at what cost? Now, there are 12 chapters left to edit which roughly comes up to 15k words and they all read like MTL thanks to speech-to-text screwing me over
That moment when you check your word count and realize you have to write 7k words each day until the end of the month to still make your goal It'd be easier if I didn't still have other work to do and wasn't feeling like shit but I guess I can only try to write as much as I can today ...
If you pay for the Amazon Prime subscription, you get the great opportunity to borrow movies from the shop for just a dollar. How awesome! I mean, it's not like I'm already paying for the subscription or anything ...
When I write articles about products, I somehow end up thinking "man, maybe I need this too ...". Thank god this job doesn't pay well or I'd have tons of useless junk at home
There is always that one person in a writing group that when you ask about x, they'll start advising you on y with y being irrelevant, having a reason outside the shared information, or being a deliberate decision. Oftentimes, y is based solely on their experience/opinion.
Just thought of that today when I randomly remembered the guy who complained about my FL accusingly staring at spilled coffee
Ah, choosing names is so hard ... Can I really pair a three-syllable name with a two-syllable name and not have readers hate me? But then, if the character's spouse only has a two-syllable name, it doesn't seem too bad?
That dread when you find a half-written chapter that is part of an arc you finished and suddenly aren't sure anymore if you ever had that part in there and this is just the dregs or completely forgot about it ...
The new year has started and I can't help but begin with the big questions, like: Can I write half a novel in a day? Because I kind of feel like I might need to ... Ah, why is February so early in the year?!
Apparently, there is a state where you can be too depressed to upload even finished chapters on time but still not too depressed for your brain to throw new story ideas at you ...
