Just a question of curiosity that came to me as I finished editing a chapter today, like...
I usually write roughly 1000 words per hour, which I think is a pretty decent pace, it lets me finish a chapter of my story in roughly 2 hours... Then I take a break to take my mind off the story and go back to proofread it and edit things out.
In the first chapter this process took like, 5 or so minutes and it only consisted of correcting typos. Nowadays though, I think I'm taking 1-2 hours in it as well, I'm rewriting entire paragraphs, changing word order, even adding new paragraphs too. There was one time I deleted the first half of my chapter and rewrote it from scratch.
In my latest chapter for example, I added 2 paragraphs of text between the 1st and 2nd paragraphs because I wanted to develop something better that my initial draft didn't quite show.
So uhn... I got curious, how long does it take for you to write/edit/proofread your chapter? Share your own experiences~
