Update, and chapter length poll!
Hi! Still alive! Sorry I keep dropping off the face of the earth. Depression is being rather terrible – like 3 weeks of reducing one med so I could start another turned into a month plus of waiting for a new med to get approved, and then that pill got changed out too…. It’s been fucking with my writing, as one might imagine. Both my motivation and my self-confidence. I am still writing, though! And I’m hoping to share something in the near future. To that end, I wanted to do a quick poll on chapter lengths! Keep in mind that my current plan is to write entire scenes out…

To be honest, I often struggle to write shorter chapters – the reason they’re so long as that it often doesn’t feel like I’ve reached a natural stopping point until 6,000 words in. But, at the same time, that’s mostly me trying to fit an…

Quick Check-in: Writing Plans
Hi! Considering how I disappeared before, I wanted to make sure to check-in and let everyone know what’s going on. As I’m sure you all know, I recently finished the rough draft of chapter 14. Before editing it, though, I’m rereading the previously published chapters of Demon Queened. It’s been a long time since I’ve done that, and the last time I did it I was still a bit burnt out – it’s what made me realize that my burnt-out plotting had led me in a bad direction, too. So this reread is partially to make sure my current plans fit well enough, and partially to refresh myself on what…
