So, I wrote a bit for NaNo. Probably update wordcount tomorrow.
So far so good.
I like how the birth story gently hints on things to come.

Ugh! I need to jot down some of the changes I want to make for Red Reign’s second draft because it is starting to eat away at me. It sucks because I am nowhere near done with the first draft, yet I keep getting these random ideas for change.
I shall continue with the first draft because things are going fine for the most part, but in the second draft, I am making changes that can tie a little bit in with the first draft.
Actually, now that I think about it. With the changes that I have in mind, it is going to be completely different than what is happening in the first draft.
So, I going to continue a mixture of jotting down notes and writing Red Reign. I’ve started chapter one of The Red Ghost and I am NOT pleased with it either. I feel like it needs more umph and is lacking to me.
I wanted to make The Red Ghost a horror science-fantasy novel, but that isn’t happening. I am not feeling the plot I gave it nor anything else. So, it is back to the drawing (planning actually) board for that novel.
Nothing else to report or say.

I am done with chapter twelve with finishing at 1,368 words which is shorter than normal, but that is fine.
I didn’t get to jot down notes for the second draft of Red Reign. Yet because I am done with chapter twelve, I can start that now for a bit.
I shall start chapter thirteen later or tomorrow. The time is 6:50pm and I am thinking that starting it tomorrow sound better. Unless I change that and write an hour or two from now.

I am really hesitant on writing notes by hand. Like why is that exactly? I mean I know I dread handwriting with a passion, but I can at least suck it up and put pen to paper.
Geez!

I just had the craziest thought for my second story.
A retelling of The Wizard of OZ called The Roar of a Lionheart: Heretic Lion of Crimson
The thing with this story is that it is going to a slight isekai type Wizard of Oz retelling done my way of course. Still planning things, that is just an idea. I really want to test it out.

It’s okay. We’ll just spam Domi’s thread as usual. 
This thread is a legend of sorts at this point, the beating heart of this community.
I had a good start with nano yesterday. Not much yet today because life. But my sleepiness is gone so I might as well get up and write.

Common animals tend to be simply named. Cat, dog, cow, sheep. There’s bound to be an area of the world where monkeys nare more common than domestic species.

Fingers crossed you would feel a little better soon and know what you want to do. But from the outsider pov, looking at your summary, I would suggest ending the book 1 with the reveal of the Games, like the intrigue in book 1 gets turned on its head or something when our princess finds out that she is also a Tribute etc. in Hunger Games, the huge surprise is that Kat volounteers. If you already get a good Royal story going, the games could be a huge finale of book 1 and unfold in its entirety in book 2. You can use the fact that books only need to be 50K to build series.

Aww, thank you. It was important to me when I was starting on the old forums. I do more discord nowadays, but I really like having a place on the forum too.

If comic artist is getting paid roughly $90 per page of their work, exactly how many pages are they doing?
This is a silly question, but I was curious.
I am watching an anime called Bakuman and the characters will be paid 9000 yen per page. I am wondering how many pages they draw in total.
If my math serves me, 9000yen is like roughly $90 last I remember.
I could be wrong. LOL!
If I am wrong, correct me, please.

I intend to get back to writing my prequel since I’ve edited my main book the last few times. For now though, having fun trying to make a WattPad book cover for the prequel. Yay! Can’t wait for reviewers, assuming I have any, to tear it all apart. 
The writing, I mean lol, not the book cover. Though who knows these days, flaming book covers might be a thing too on WP.
