Struggling Writers’ Daily Den: rant, share, complain, ask, daily progress thing (Part 1)

And, yay! Synopsis is done, and it is not horrible. These 500 words are always sooo hard. Even if I don’t do anything else today, I am pretty pleased with myself.

Aww, so quiet here 🥲🤧

I have edited and posted the first 11 chapters of the Lone Werewolf over the weekend. So far, so good writing wise. I think I am meeting my goals, though I want soulmate theme to come even stronger with the second LI. No readers, but that’s expected. :woman_shrugging:

I will be working on it on Mon-Tue as well, since I plan to prep the next chapter of Raised by the Mafia for Wed and Friday.

Yay, the forum is back!

I am just chipping away… gotta have a more serious re-write tomorrow for a part of one chapter, sharpening the conflict and fixing a timeline bottleneck I left to fix till editing.

Now I have one reader that makes my writing worthwhile for both the Raised by the Mafia and Lone Werewolf each. It really heartens me to see those comments… am not gonna cry… :sob::sneezing_face:

Actually, I almost cried when someone added How to Marry Your Dragon on Completed list yesterday… aww, someone ninja read it. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I was so annoyed how my stories always ended around 75K, not hitting Tapas submission minimum of 80K, now I am at 86K with Werewolf, and I am worried it will go to 100K with edits somehow.

My ONC also blew past 40K, when I thought, 25K if I am lucky…

I really have a bad handle on length. :crazy_face:
