    FYI, Cavirmablablah, I AM GETTING TO IT AND I HAVE STARTED TTD 2 WHILE I’M BETA READING FOR SOMEONE WHO’S PUBLISHING FEBUARY!!!!!!

    It’s fine, take as many years as you would like. 🙂

    @rose-colored-fancy

    What’s the piece of feedback that surprised you the most?

    To be perfectly honest with you, I just kinda assume that my writing could have flaws or quirks in any area, so nothing much surprises me. But I suppose the ‘it needs more introspection for internal conflict’ was what surprised me the most.

    And… I went on an extremely excited tangent again, but you’re used to it by now

    I love seeing other people get excited about their creations, keep it up. 🙂

    I can’t accurately say what so far because I’ve only been writing for two weeks or so on this project, but I’d say 2000 is a pretty accurate average figure. Often less, sometimes more.

    Well obviously you did a lot more than that this past week if you nearly hit 30k. What’s the most you’ve written in a day?

     I also partially blame this on my extremely large cat who decided to sleep on my lap while I was taking a break and of course I couldn’t just ruthlessly shove him off so my five-minute break turned into an hour XD A classic case of feline paralysis

    That is so me. xD When a cat gets cozy on your lap, it’s so hard to move them.

    I know, and I will do it, but there’s always the little voice in my head that says “But what if my writing is terrible and I didn’t realize it?? This is going to be embarassing” It’s scary

    Yeah, I understand it. I’m just so caught up in how good it is in my head, that I need someone to tell me just how bad it is to get my head out of the clouds.

    Whenever there’s a scene that characters have to dress up for a formal event to infiltrate it for a spy event and they end up fighting and possibly wounded and it’s such a contrast with their fancy clothing, it’s just stunning imagery and I find it exceptionally cool every time XD

    Agreed. I love those.

    If you couldn’t tell, I’m having a lot of thoughts tonight XD That means it’s too late for me to actually be writing this but I’m still going to do it.

    Young woman, don’t stay up past your bedtime.

    🙃

    I did wonder with the long tangents and all. 😉

    This really turned into the most absurd game of telephone XD How am I supposed to remember what Cavilmiblasomething was originally supposed to be?

    Since I can’t recall which of you messed up my fine sobriquet first, I’m gonna blame it on both of you. Disrespecting such a fine name. Dreadful of you.

    Besides that, it’s just beautifully written, I loved all of the characters so, so much, they just make me so happy. It’s kinda a slow book, more character than plot.

    I shall put it on my list.
