I'm making short stories with three act structures. These will be based on my main work in progress, where each character will have their own backstory. The first one is posted here. These are really an exercise for me, but feel free to read them and offer feedback!

Everybody clawing for each other's attention, and I'm just sitting over here scratching my taint, wondering if anyone will notice.

Starting short stories based on individual characters from my manuscript as a writing exercise. Focusing on conciseness, overall structure and developmental clarity.

Spent all day setting up a tiktok and making videos for my fucking book. Spent all night relieving the pressure by writing my fucking book.

If I write the word austere in my book one more time, please jail me.

The vines and roots began to wrap around his body as he cried and screamed for his mother. His voice cut short by the rough roots crawling down his throat, burrowing into his eyes and nostrils as they pulled him into the ground.

Final edit, 80k words. I just found a minor plot hole, but I can't figure out a workaround. All I have to do is change one sentence—there's many directions I could take, but they all feel like cop-outs.

My first book is nearly finalized at almost 80k words. My partner said that my first draft is preschool compared to the finished product, and I can't put into words how that makes me feel.

She sighed under the gentle relief of his touch, her body shifting and graceful. He leaned over her, his lips hovering barely above hers. She could feel them as he spoke.

"Nothing will keep me from you, I am only yours."

Should the handsome emissary be swangin' hog on the first book or is that a third book thing.

Writing has been my life every day for two months straight. Now I'm waiting for people to beta read my second draft, and I don't know what to do with myself.

I just finished the second draft of my first novel. I feel like there's still so much missing.

Spent some time refining earlier chapters of my first draft, added a chapter for pacing, and expanded on existing chapters for world building. There's so much to be done, I love every moment of it.

1. Keep going—your words matter more than you think.

2. Every great book started as a messy first draft.

The second draft is so fun, I get to add every little detail that was hidden in my brain—crucial character building moments while trimming the bland fillers I'd used as a crutch to get my thoughts out. It's like growing muscle on a skeleton.

My partner helps me with ideas. They think that there should be a romance with the tall, handsome emissary. Her only advice was "I want you to make *me* want to fuck this guy.

Fair enough, I suppose.

I told my boss that I've been writing and finished my first 60,000 word draft. He laughed and called it "another one of my weird eclectic hobbies."

I have to sanitize my hands because I'm sick, and now my cat thinks I'm somebody else and doesn't trust me.

Kill me, please.

The direction of my story changed, now there's an entire chapter that serves no purpose. It could be deleted in its entirety and nothing would change. Writing is a pain sometimes.
