Oh, good. *wipes forehead* November’s usually a pretty busy month what with school and Thanksgiving and other stuff going on.
Same! It’s kinda a weird time of the year to have it but… *shrugs* I’m going to try to make it work!
HEH?!!? *whirls on Rose* WHY MUST I HEAR THIS FROM ANOTHER?!?!?!
*Laughs sheepishly* In my defense, I didn’t think this was unusually fast until Noah started a thread about it and I compared it to others XD
Umm, I don’t know, I kinda do it? Well, my dad insisted I learn to touch-type so I type almost as fast as I think XD That definitely helps!
And, OH, I learned a brilliant tip from @this-is-not-an-alien !!
She taught me to go into each chapter and write down everything I have planned out in my head, like an outline, and then flesh that out until I have a clear image of how the chapter will go before I write it out.
It’s helped me write so much faster because it means I have my mental outline written down already.
And if you don’t feel like writing you can just write a quick outline and that might get you excited about it!
Without darkness, there is no light. If there was no nighttime, would the stars be as bright?
