My latest two projects ended up novellas. I shouldn't have written them at the same time, but I did because a reader wanted to read the end of How To Be A Peaceful Vampire, and I was already writing Out of Paradise. The two novellas took me 15 days to write. I get tired with a story after that period. On some stories, where there were ends to be tied, I persevered, doubled back, and the like.
Is there a secret to writing a book for months on end? I want to write something that is epic length again, like The Apple Grotto Nymph. Something to break my record of 244 chapters. What I end up with is novellas, and the occasional short book. Please help, and share your secrets. I already have an idea for my next project, and I want it to be long. (A story based on the song Bust Your Knee Caps by Pomplamoose, a BL with a yandare elf, that runs the elf mafia, and his human lover, who wants to leave him because he doesn't want to do anything with the mafia boss's "family business". In Mcfantasy land, of course. Pure crack, hopefully.)
