I feel like I should update this so i’mma do that 😎
Um I don’t have much to say. This forum seems suddenly filled with new people and I’m kind of overwhelmed, so who knows, I might not participate much until the forum feels normal again. Don’t know when that will be? Maybe the new year will bring me new resolve.
NaNoWriMo is hopefully going to happen? At least as much as I can without a computer 😂
Projects are going well. Both my main ones have changed (for the better, I hope). I have like 5k words on a solid outline for both, and around three times that for each when it comes to snippets, ideas, quickly scribbled scenes, worldbuilding, etc. Although I haven’t done much actual scene writing, the scenes I have written are really up-to-speed when it comes to pacing, and I’m happy with how it’s coming along. The only problem I have is worldbuilding, because oh my stars I have so much to do!!! Gotta create my own mafia ring and demigod hierarchy and everything uuugggghhhh!!! Nah it’s fun ❤
As for life, I’m livin’. It’s tough, isn’t it? How are you, random friend? ❤
P.S. Word count not counting the absolute monsters of text I have in my email drafts 😂 I can jot stuff down so much easier in there!
Sounds funnn 😂 I’m working a WIP for NaNo too and having a much easier time of writing it than my normal WIP. Which is…. Kinda nice. XD And as I write, I’m finding so many things I’ve missed when I was working on worldbuilding this country. But, I guess that’s just the way I do things. 🤷🏻♀️ I really can’t sit down and plot for a long time or I’ll get bored. So I just write off of my loose outline and figure things out as I go along. It’s fun. 😛
Also, I’m absolutely loving the dynamic between my two MCs. 😆 I seriously need to put them in a RP on here together. 😂
Nice!! I’m glad you get that much needed break! How’s it going right now?
Pretty good! Thanks for asking!
I’m behind on my word count, but I’m hoping that I’ll be able to catch up next week. (Because instead of a certain amount of words per day, I’m doing words per week, and gave myself a lower count Thanksgiving week.) I’m struggling the large-scale pacing of the story, but I’ll probably smooth that all out in the second draft. What about you?
Yeah, it’s probably best to write a little extra each day so you’re prepared for the holidays. And I bet you’ll figure out second draft just fine 😊
Umm I gave up on NaNo for a few reasons 😅 Mostly because my dad couldn’t fix the computer. But also because my mom is sick, and we’re going to be away from home for a couple weeks now. So it just wasn’t a good time for the challenge.
But writing is coming along nicely anyway!
