Yeah girl. Look at me. *Presses face into the screen* That’s a full 50,000 words. That’s no simple feat. 🥰 And you actually have words on the page which can be edited and made into something even better! It’s not like you’re working with an empty document here, this is a seriously already finished first draft.

@whalekeeper yaaay Whaley you’re here!! And thx for the encouragement!

Also…yall…not me literally looking back and this old WIP and remember/really realizing…

I WROTE 50,000 words for this book….

This is the first (and maybe only) book I wrote 50,000 words for…

That’s…an accomplishment.

And at the point I was at when I did…[Read more]

My pagan gods are simply known as Them, because I couldn’t think of a name.😭

I was reminded of something one of yall had said about maybe working on another WIP since maybe I’m just burnt out a bit on this one right now?

You should do that!! You’re not giving up on November or Paxton or anyone, you’re just giving them time to rest and develop in your subconscious. I often switch between projects when I feel burnt out. It g…[Read more]

FIRST I COMMENTED FIRST

…Okay now I’m going to read what you wrote XD

@koshka

The evil/weird religious system in my WIP so far only has moon worship and possibly vague ancestor stuff…which is being an issue because of blurred lines between calendars and idolatry, but I’m actually having fun with that so far so let’s hope I don’t end up with mad parents.

I think it makes sense. There was a lot of moon worship in the…[Read more]

And you never really know how many categories world building falls into. There’s just so many different things. I know I keep saying this, but it’s crazy. Just the fact that one of my protagonists is biracial brings up so many questions that have to be answered so I can sleep at night.

@elishavet-pidyon

I’m always so impressed when somebody invents a language for their story. I’m too traumatized from Latin to have any sort of desire to that end.

It saved the world from becoming a huge political allegory

LEGIT concern right there. Actually so true.

Hm… Maybe you can create some kind of explanation for the fall…[Read more]

i can be cool too, guysssss

*feels very cool*

*hopping on the trend to change your name to a funny one*

@raxforge

XD Your name is now Andrew instead of Monsieur Andre.

@koshka

I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have reawakened the trauma. *Pats your head apologetically* We’ve all been through it before.

Boundaries will help. Writing is like a relationship. You can’t let it take over your life, Koshka. I believe in you.

🤣😝

@elishavet-pidyon

A perfectly understandable complication. After all, now you have to make every aspect of your world just as complicated as that porridge recipe. It’s only natural.

*Watches you scream* *Joins you by screaming into my stuffed unicorn*

The best decision I ever made for Project Lovedream was to limit the world-building to one city due to an extreme history of isolationism, plus the science fiction boundaries implemented because of it. It makes my job a whole lot easier.

Have you drawn maps for your…[Read more]

That actually reminds me of a conversation I saw on CWW before the community closed. It was about relatability and likability. A lot of people seemed to think relatability makes a character likable. I’m not sure if I agree with everything they said, but it was still interesting to read.
