Writing a book for me is like building a spaceship while flying it. You have to troubleshoot so many problems and just hope you won't blow up.

I finished another chapter in my book, and I have plans for what will be happening next. Yay!

After writing three sprints, I did some journaling, and suddenly had a great idea for my book. It means that I have to shuffle some scenes around, and write a couple of chapters for the beginning.

And now I wonder how much work that's going to be and can't help but wonder if that would maybe be procrastination :D

I think I will keep writing because 50.000 is still possible if I just keep writing.

What would you do?

oh hey, don't mind me, just coming of a late-night session *yarn*. there was this emotionally central moment spooking around in the back of my head all day, had to write down the scene. the unintended effect was sudden ideas for the short story that's been sidetracking me since yesterday 😈

right now, my progress is so slow i'm afraid i'll only have half the at the end of this , but i do like how this format helps me write every day.

Just wanted to document for myself that I've axed a character in my edits, she did important things to move the story forward, but I hated her.

While editing a scene I realised the character's actions made WAY more sense if they were done by another character (because of his traits).

So now character A is gone and character B takes up the reins of supporting the main character.

Love it when things like that happen, even though editing is rough.
