Editing’s going slow but steady.

To whoever needs this tonight, I think this is important for all of us to remember, even if there’s nothing to show yet. :)

To whoever needs to hear this: Whatever you’re writing, you’re not alone. I know the journey may seem long and lonely, but there are thousands of other artists out there, all creating. Just like you are. You got this, don’t give up. You can reach that goal.

Writing the first draft is like a playground. Anything and everything goes, it’ll make sense later.
Editing is like a whole new boss battle. Pull one string, and ten new things need to be shifted around. I’m absolutely living for the logistical challenges. Anyone else?

Reminding my brain not to just rewrite big, common tropes, but rather taking a step back and thinking “Wait, would I, myself, enjoy reading this?” Writing original, niche plots I always wished were real is challenging, but the feeling of tired fulfillment is like no other when I finally strike gold!

Coming to terms with the fact I am most definitely a hopeless plotter has been a journey. #newwriter things to learn to work on at least?

“Me, a plotter!?” (I say, looking at the multiple 20k+ word docs over how to edit my story, but not actually editing yet)
