      @rochellaine Well, even with planning, the scenes can be a bit disorganized sometimes. Especially when I miscalculate how long the chapter’s going to be, and then my chapters have this random sequence to them. And that’s where editing comes in.

      Lol. I am not one of those people. My brother used to be fast on it, then he got a smartphone. I however, remain with the flip-phone. Slowly…

      Editing is going well. I’m actually almost done with this one beta-readers comments. ๐Ÿ˜€ *sings* So many plotholes that I get to fix yay*

        @dragon-snapper Ack!ย  Sometimes it’s like a knife they’re sticking into you:

        “What do you mean, I wasn’t consistent?!”
        “Well, in the last scene they drove here in a car, and now they’re walking back home.”
        “Are you serious?” *runs to look it up* “Aaaah! How could I have done that?”

        (Fortunately, that one was a pretty easy fix, as all I had to do was change a couple of sentences about how they got in the car, but they pile up until it feels like the whole book is a big mess. ๐Ÿ˜€ )

          @rochellaine XD Plot holes. They’re everywhere. One is of a friend who’s completely nonchalant that his friend is probably dead. ๐Ÿ˜ Oops.

          “What do you mean he doesn’t care?”
          “He doesn’t.”
          “What? That’s ridiculous!” *looks it up* “Wow. He doesn’t care at all. That’s… awful.”

            @dragon-snapper Oh, what an unfeeling character! ๐Ÿ™‚ ๐Ÿ˜€

            *whoop* I think I’ve almost gotten past the bridge part and to the excitement!ย  I do believe one of my characters is about to fall off a cliff.


            @seekjustice
            Good morning Australia!ย  Have you got that idea figured out for me today?ย  (Don’t worry too much about it, though, since I’m working on my western right now instead of that story.)

                @dragon-snapper Yup, they live in the future.ย  It must be weird for @seekjustice to post a message and then realize I read it theย day before she posted it! ๐Ÿ˜€ย  Time travel!

                Oh, do you like cliffs?ย  They’re very convenient dropping off points. ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

                  @rochellaine Haha! It’s so confusing. ๐Ÿ˜›

                  Yeaaasssss. Cliffhangers!!! ULTIMATE POWER! ๐Ÿ˜›

                  And I’m going to sign out now. I went through a half-a-book’s worth of comments, and now I need a break. Binge-editing. ๐Ÿ˜› Good luck!

                  And I might be back later today to write; we’ll see. ๐Ÿ˜›

                    @dragon-snapper Okay, goodbye!ย  Do come back later and challenge me to a write-off.ย  You’ll be sure to win, but I need the work. ๐Ÿ˜€

                        @rochellaine I’m here! It’s great to be back…I’ve had a lot going on recently, so haven’t been able to get on and chat for a while. Let me grab a snack, and I’ll write with you!

                              @waterlily I’m writing cheese and crackers and eating my western…

                              …I mean the other way around. ๐Ÿ˜€ย  Though that might actually be interesting.

                              Have you ever pushed someone off a cliff?ย  I’m about to try it for the first time.

                                @rochellaine Hmm, not really. But given the setting of my current WIP, I might very soon…
