I’ve started to discover how hard writing contemporary can be. I have the main plot points in my head, but figuring how to get to each one without writing filler chapters has been difficult. Right now I’m just trying to get to each plot points and am planning to cut stuff later if I have to.

@whalekeeper

I will keep that in mind. 🫡

Yes ma’am 😏

OK I’M FINALLY GOING TO SIT DOWN AND ACTUALLY WRITE A RP!

I don’t know where we left off with our charries and I haven’t written from Lukas’s POV or even the WIP he’s in for AGES, so let’s just see how this goes. 🤣

Lukas

“Is this normal?”

Everton shot Lukas a raised eyebrow look. “Is what normal?”

Well if you feel like switching projects at any point during the challenge, don’t force yourself against a writing block. But that sounds like a good plan. Is this the romance with the Italian boy? 😏

I think I finally caught up on some leftover snowballs and now have 12 in reserve… 😏

I’m going to work on my current WIP that has been chugging along slowly (a NA contemporary romance). I’m dying to start brainstorming a middle-grade project, but I’m not allowing myself to write anything else until I finish the first draft of my current WIP. 😂 (Which should have been finished in November, but life happened; I couldn’t finish…[Read more]

@rae @loopylin @linus-smallprint @theshadow @keilah-h @theducktator I’m just tagging whoever comes to mind. I hope some of you will do this too, and if so, hope to meet you in the sprinting topic on Monday!

I’m really excited because my project is going to have an absurdist world, and should only be 50k or so words since it will be middle grade level. What about everyone else?

Tagging some more folks who I believe signed up! @ellette-giselle @liberty @theshadow @savannah_grace2009 @anyoneelsethatmybrainisstrugglingtoremember

I’m revitalizing this topic because CWW 2025 is on Monday! @godlyfantasy12 @koshka @esther-c @hybridlore @everyone

@godlyfantasy12

No worries about not being super active! 🤗 I haven’t really been either, lol.

Welp, it seems like everyone has answered your question, and I’m participating in CWW too!!! It will be my first time and I’m so excited. I’ll probably be Esther C. or Esther Carter on there. Idk yet.

I can’t waittt!!! 😆

@linus-smallprint

OS I am very happy to here these two were your favourites.

Glad that makes you feel better!

Hmm. I might have to think through this one more. Tyn is a bit of a hot-head though.

You could maybe play off the fact that kentors naturally avoid confrontation. Although Tyn wants to face conflict directly, she might still be avoidant…[Read more]

Ohhhh, okay. *Quickly checks something* Try their album Dear Wormwood. I don’t know if the style is exactly what you’re looking for, but if you listen to Soldier, Poet, King which is a song on that album, that should give you the gist of what they sound like.

@loopylin

Yes, it’s serious, Hannah. That’s a Sufjan Stevens song. Marcel deserves better. 🥺

All in good time. XD

Yeah, I really love Sufjan and Aurora. Aurora is special to me because my whole family loves her music and my mom always plays it in our car.

@koshka

Hmm, I feel as if I know something that would fit, but the thoughts aren’t comin…[Read more]

@freed_and_redeemed

but MAYBE I wanna know about the chicken

This is Bacon.

and Marcel’s girlfriend XD

Ehhhhh no, that’s confidential.

@freed_and_redeemed

Kinda taking a step back and not making writing such a huge, huge focus this year, learning how to slow down and enjoy the stage of life I’m in rn :3

Yeah, it’s more important to take a break if you need to and focus on things like relationships and personal growth. That’s why, even though I’m more capable of writing a whole n…[Read more]
