I haven't done much studying (or 'revising' if you're from the UK like me) in my life, and so I don't really have a great grasp on where to start.
Then there's also the fact that I have ADHD, I'm autistic, and I have various physical health things.
If anyone has any tips on how to study, or how to figure out how you as an individual study best, that would be very helpful!
I am trying to learn French and it's going okay but I want to step it up a bit

I should not be allowed near a computer, or more specifically near #mastodon, before I do my morning stretches and exercise. Since the exercise includes an hour on the treadmill where I actually #revise or #write #fiction, doubly so.
How do you manage this?

Here's some #writingAdvice: Create a list of problem words that flag problems in your writing as you #revise. Here's my list of #hedgeWords and #weaselWords.
(Reply with yours! I'll add them. Boost to share with others.)
My biggest bugaboos are words that soften (hedge) the impact of a sentence or keep the narrator from (weaselly) committing to action. Both kill effective narration, as the narrator knows all tells what's necessary. Careful, though. Such word mimic normal speech, as between subordinate and dominant people and in cautious conversation.
When you find these words, stop and examine the context of the word.
A good list should transform your prose, turning hesitancy to decisive action. Deleting these words removes verbiage, making your writing concise and hard edged. Each and every word must serve a purpose, whether functional or aesthetic.

I threw out about 60k words last week in my current novel and dropped back to chapter three.
Since then, I've been writing two chapters a day.
Today is supposed to be my no writing day, still wrote a chapter.
I learned this lesson in 2016. Don't be afraid to start over, don't be afraid to cut if its not working.
