5000 Words Reached
It’s taken shorter than expected! My only obstacles were that I went out of town for a week, and then the next week I quit my job. For now I’m a full-time writer, and nothing else matters. Things have finally come together regarding the story, and when that happens I feel an absolute lightheartedness andContinue reading “5000 Words Reached”
3000 Words Reached
I can’t believe that advice worked so well. To think I had trouble reaching 1000 for months! The next milestone is 5000, even if that sounds far-fetched to me now. The first chapter is almost done for the first draft, and I’m super excited to get in and edit. My next trouble, though, is addingContinue reading “3000 Words Reached”
2000 Words Reached
After a week-long trip, I’ve finally made it to 2000 on my project. Somebody advised I make the first draft the worst I can make it, and honestly? It’s the best advice I’ve ever heard. It’s brought me a new perspective of imperfection. If you want to try it yourself, you’ll be surprised by theContinue reading “2000 Words Reached”
Scrapped Critique Services
For now. It appears the payment plans weren’t working after a while. I wasn’t profitting from it anyway, but if anyone would still like a critique, I may use Etsy or something. Just be wary I may set up services other than critiques.
Milestone Hit
I’ve officially reached 1000 words on my project. It took a few tries to make something cohesive and planned. I’ve realised how much perfectionism I’ve put into the project and how toxic it is. It’s a relief to finally connect things and brings important scenes to the forefront. Soon it will be 1500, then 2000Continue reading “Milestone Hit”
Writing Update + Using Scrivener
I’m back writing 12M’s draft, and this time with a fully licenced Scrivener! So far, I quite like the features such as the board function. My productivity used to be 100 words, and this time I’ve doubled it. Today handed me a few pearls of wisdom. Turns out I’ve been too perfect about the process,Continue reading “Writing Update + Using Scrivener”
Packing My Bags
I’m not leaving! Don’t worry. Tomorrow morning, I’m flying South for a holiday – god knows I need it. Last year was HELL, so I can’t wait to hop on a plane and enjoy my time in a big scary city. I’ll keep you updated, and perhaps you’ll get a sneak peek of Twelfth MeridianContinue reading “Packing My Bags”

Backstreet’s Back (Updates)
Last night, after I sent that request for reads, I did my own research into Wattpad. The search was short-lived – I found a site named Inkitt! It offers a lot, including publishing opportunities (and they sell your ebook on Amazon). Romance is a favoured genre, coincidentally the genre I skip over. But that won’tContinue reading “Backstreet’s Back (Updates)”
