@graciegirl @that_writer_girl_99 @jane-maree Alright, I’ve finished up. Did some research and then edited 500 words.

@graciegirl Great.

@graciegirl @that_writer_girl_99 @dragon-snapper I’ll be writing tonight like ususal.

@dragon-snapper You ought to be able to write one in about a month. Less if you’re dedicated. My novella was ten chapters and 20,000-22,000 words — I can’t remember exactly.

Once you have your document totally ready, you can seriously publish it in like an hour. If you want to do a paperback too, that’s a bit more work, but it’s not too bad.

@winter-rose lol. I have yet to pick a title.

@that_writer_girl_99 @ethryndal Well, if it’s any consolation, we have a recording of it.

@graciegirl @that_writer_girl_99 Ok, I’m done now. I finished editing my first chapter.

@That_Writer_Girl_99 If you can keep your stories a manageable size then good for you. You’ll save yourself so much time and effort. 😛

@That_Writer_Girl_99 good work. Really, you’re off to a great start kicking your story into action. That’s something I had to learn the hard way— how to start a story and keep the pace from the very first sentence. You’re doing great.

The few things I do wanna mention are more ways you could improve the prose itself than for the structure of…[Read more]

@graciegirl I’m editing now, so I’ll join in the fun.

@That_Writer_Girl_99 I’ll be praying.

@graciegirl Edwin Brook was about 76,000 words, I believe.

@that_writer_girl_99 Yes, ma’am.

@Daeus yeah. Probably.

@kate-flournoy I eagerly await. Do you think I should buy a truckload of popcorn to keep me occupied?

@Daeus ha! Well, that’s good. Adding stuff is fun. You get to go deeper and discover more, instead of having to painfully cut material you already fell in love with and condemn it to the void of unknown-ness forever… *dramatic sigh* One of these days I’m gonna write a first draft that’s only 50,000 words. You wait and see.

@GracieGirl YES. Same here. Identical. I hadn’t thought it out so clearly or beautifully, but yes. 😉

@graciegirl Agreed. Absolutely beautiful.

@that_writer_girl_99 Ok, I’ll try to check it out. I’ve got some other beta reading to do at the moment, but it should lessen in a couple days.

Thanks, everybody. 🙂

@kate-flournoy Well, currently it’s 66,578, but I expect it to get up to 70,000 or more by the time it’s done. I’m pretty much your opposite. 😛

@aratrea @winter-rose @jenali @audry-grace The basic premise is that these two teens, a brother and sister, accidentally find themselves taken back in time through this time…[Read more]
