Yep, basically burnt out. And easily distracted XD. Three more stories. I dragged my feet in the last one.

@ellette-giselle

Honestly, you were one of the main people I had in mind when I decided to go for it. I LOVED your book and it meant so much. People need to be able to read stuff like it, but honestly it’s so hard to get p…

@rae

How’s the editing going so far? I bet you’re super tired by now. XD

@ellette-giselle

Wait really!!!!!??? You might be going with us?!?!?!

I looked into like twenty different publishers today, some briefly, some a little more in-depth. The only two I liked were yours and one that I can’t even submit my book too so…yeah, I’m probably gonna go with you. To be honest, you weren’t my first choice (just a bookmarked…[Read more]

Also, Wild Horse Publishing, if all my plans go as planned, will have a new costumer in fall hopefully (If I can earn enough money and figure out how to market a book. 😉 )

UPDATE

I have five stories left to edit. It’s going much faster than I thought since apparently Past Me is better at editing than I thought she was, and besides a few little tweaks, I’m mostly just rereading the stories (which is so much fun! Though it feels almost like cheating. I promise I am actually editing places where I see problems!) I…[Read more]

I don’t think I can finish the challenge. We’ll see.

Well, to my joy, I am finding, so far, a LOT less things to edit than I thought I would…

…Though, I’m pretty sure anyone else who reads my work will be wanted to strangle me for grammar mistakes I missed and poor scene execution. I’m just blind to it.

@whalekeeper

Okay!

@ellette-giselle

What is Jonathan’s arc supposed to be?

I just watched Animation vs. Minecraft, and it was super wholesome, I loved it

…And here I am, praising the game and not talking about Alan Becker. XD I still haven’t watched. Next chance I get, probably this week.

I think some YouTubers make Minecraft way too loud and showy. My brothers watch competitive YouTubers and I’ve never caught on to that. The game by itself is much more impactful.

Minecraft is the kind of thing I never thought I’d enjoy. But one day it clicked. I think the combination of the music and graphics have the same uncanny feel as old memories. Pieces of the world make sense, but much of it is random and silent. It’s such a strange, melancholic feeling.

@keilah-h

I mean The Nether through Cave Spider Rollercoaster kind of had a story, but it was more like crazy event after another as they tried to get back to the PC.

@ellette-giselle

The first two seasons are definitely not as good, but they’re also just supposed to be fun and developing the character’s personalities. They’re not intended to be as reliant on story.

If you haven’t ever played Minecraft I definitely  see how you might not have liked the first two (or fourth) seasons.

@ellette-giselle

Because the King and Purple’s stories are amazing?

Did you not like it or did you just not find it sad?

@ellette-giselle

All of them? Including Noteblock Universe and The King?

@the_lost-journal

Writers can insert two sides of themselves into that conversation and it still tracks. XD

@elishavet-pidyon

I appreciate the thoughts! I hadn’t thought much about items before – although specific things come to mind. My goal is to make this character less of a person to mourn for, and more of a person to enjoy reading about. *Bows and offers you a jar of glitter to poof yourself back home if needed*

Just did the math, and the entire Baron Chronicles (at 1,500 edited words per half hour) would take me 11.7 hours!

Which means I may or may not go over 12 hours tomorrow cuz, for one, I know it’ll probably take me a little longer and two, I have another short story that I’ve had on my mind related to the Baron Chronicles but will not be published…[Read more]
