Expelled from Word, he is now trying to contact you through other programs...
I've been working on this for months.
Seeing as I'm reaching the end of my CD Original Book, I've been dabbling even more in my SoS Trilogy.
It's a difficult project. I need to have all three books outlined first, which will probably take 2025, 2026 AND 2027 to do. I'll probably write the first book in 2027...
(As for the TCIK book, it should be launched 2026 I think...)
But anyway, the reason I'm writing this is to say... I legit went through my main character in SoS's playlist and thought, 'not enough Lady Gaga'. Now I'm trying to find more of her songs to add. Most don't fit...
Well, I need to try anyway.
Cursed be the writer that posted a 'and everybody died in the most gruesome way possible' chapter on April's Fools.
🤬
I was kinda surprised the nonbinary flag was even an option. Nice. Shockingly, I could actually portray how I look right now... (Gotta do something about that beard, though. Yesterday I was too lazy...)

I used to think I had nothing to offer to the world. That my writings were shit. Lacking in pretty much everything. That no one would want to read them in their right mind. That I'd be better off dead.
Fuck that.
I'll carve my path in blood if need be, if even one person feels heard by a word I wrote.
(I'm just being poetic, policeman)
hahahaha omg I'm 1) with sprinkles of 2)
There are two types of writers:
1. 'It's fiction, it doesn't need to make sense!'
2. 'I didn't account for the rotation of the planet and how that affects the constalations while my characters stargazed at different times of year, I have failed as a writer, and this entire thing is trash'
My ideas always go like this:
Oah, cool, fine, that shows promise
Nah scratch that, something better came up
Wow another new idea, this one actually makes 1 and 2 make sense
mindblowing
omg I'm weeping, EVERYTHING MAKES SENSE NOW
Over and over again, project after project
You just need to give it... time. No really, time and eat proper food
It's already soooo much better!
I'm still working on the end, though...
Each arc is more fleshed out and flows better. I feel the first kiss is =waay better too. Among other things.
I'm working now on connecting the ideas, foreshadow things better, make things feel earned, sorting through the rest of my notes (and my cellphone notes too, I had forgotten them).
Many things are lacking though. I need more ideas... My structure as it is wouldn't make a good book, at all. I admit I must have only 1/3 of a good book right now.
My head feels full and I'm tired of trying to make things make sense, but they ARE making sense, finally. It's like, I want X and Y to happen, but these events contradict themselves, so it's like trying to solve a really fun (but head bashing) puzzle.
Also, my playlist is really helping. I got many ideas just by listening to it.
Anyway, I couldn't have found a better hobby. <3
HOW I ABSOLUTELY LOVE WRITING!
I've been spending what time I could spare fleshing out chapters 57+. I ended up having to add a 700-words-long chapter as chapter 58 due to some emotional milestones that didn't feel earned enough. And I ended up with the best lines in the whole book? Somehow? I had to write it like, 3 times. First it was all about a robbery, then I just didn't want to write anything on robbery anymore, then I started writing a whole different chapter. A bit difficult, but I managed.
Now I'm having a blast with chapter 59. It was mostly written already (I said that I finished the first draft in another update), but I had so much fun adding these little silly details. I still need to change two flirty lines that aren't strong enough... but that's what the 5th revision is, right? RIGHT???!!!!
I'm still working on chapter 59, and I think I can manage 40 too today. Only, 40 is soooo complex (on a planning perspective) I don't know how long it will take.
Well, sometimes I surprise myself and it takes like, 5 hours.
Other times, 5 days.
Just normal F me.
FINALLY FINALLY FINALLY
MY FIRST BREAKTHROUGH
IF I SOUND CRAZY, IT'S BECAUSE I AM!
finally
finally
I came across this old animation I first saw when I was like 12? And it sparked so many ideas! I totally wasn't prepared for it, and it opened my eyes!!
I still have like, to work on 70% of the book (that's still a mystery to me), but the dots are doting now. The lines are lining. The floor is flooring. Things are feeling alive, and I feel like I understand the theme of the fic for the first time. The feelings. The vibe.
I got the main character's backbone yesterday, and now a specific scene's vibe (and some repercussions for the entire fic...)
I'm so happy
...I'm having trouble finding the right verse? Because this person is going on and on about Bible verses on how to be a good wife for her husband, but for some reason, I can't find the verses about being a good husband to your husband. is there a Bible-Part 2 I didn't see/buy in the bookstore?
