Churning Out Words

Creator Journals 8/8/25 I’m not sure which group of characters to start revealing next. A lot of them have reveals and first-appearances which I would rather keep to myself until it’s time to publish.  I got my thousand words in today. I’m writing a segment from the POV of a side character and I’m tryingContinue reading “Churning Out Words”

Uneven Chapters

Creator Journals 7/29/25 I woke up really excited to write today, and indeed, I’m proud to report I’m 2k words into chapter eight, which is shaping up to be just as long as the previous two!  I’ve run into just one main snag.

It can be hard toContinue reading “Creator Journals 5/28/25”

Most of the time I’m too tired to write moreContinue reading “Creator Journals 5/21/25”

Creator Journals 5/19/25

I’m nearly done chapter 3 of 10 and I think I just need to accept that my book isContinue reading “Creator Journals 5/19/25”
