Struggling Writers’ Daily Den: rant, share, complain, ask, daily progress thing (Part 2)

Did you read one of my threads when you made this comment? It oddly made sense to me in a way.

After years of pantsing, I’ve done it. I made an outline for a rewrite of one of my books. A whole outline. I got so tired of how long editing and rewrites take me that I taught myself how to outline and make a plot before I go back for another (hopefully final) rewrite. I need to streamline my writing system in order to publish more often. I’ve been off work for a couple weeks now following a surgery so I have finally had the time to hunker down and figure it out. I feel like this a huge turning point in my writing life.

How is everyone doing?
I haven’t been visiting wackys recently and I miss this community.
I’ve been hanging out mostly on threads, but honestly, I’m not getting there what I need. It’s chaos and a new kind of twitter. :joy:

Doing okay! Also here after not being around for months. Going to try and be more active here while reviving my poor Discord server :rofl:

I opened a discord but it was crickets so I closed it. :joy: I’m not popular enough.
That’s okay. I can open it again later if that changes.

Mine used to be decently active but it got quiet. I am going to try and get some more writers in there to liven it up. I would like to make it a community and one day give it a website and such but that all costs money I don’t have at the moment lol

Also good! I am off work following surgery (had my pesky appendix taken out) a few weeks ago so I have been doing plenty of writing. Currently working on blog stuff.

Mine usually are too. I got really tired of my first drafts being SO messy and taking forever to rewrite and edit.
