Started writing on a little something. Will probably not be updated that often, but it's a story I've wanted to write for a while. Inspiration to it came from a dream I had about two years ago. Told many of my friends about the dream and all of them said I had to make it into a book. So here I go!

Sorry for bombarding ya'll with ''new'' chapters. I decided, after a few days of contemplating, to upload all the unedited chapters in case anyone wanted to finish the story as it currently is. 
          It's in the editing process. Not super happy with how the story is at the moment, but I have a whole bunch of fun and great ideas of how to make it better.

My idea was to post the remaining chapters on here a few weeks ago. But I just couldn't make myself do it. I have been thinking about the story, and I simply don't want to put out the end when it's not truly the end, not truly finished. I want to rewrite and edit, and post the new version of Discordia when I'm done with it instead. 
          Sorry to all wanting to read the end. You will be able to! It's just going to take a little bit longer. But it's not like you're not used to waiting, hahah <3

I am officially done writing the first draft of Discordia. It's been three days now actually. When I was done writing the last chapter, I almost started to cry. It feels amazing to finally have done this. I will be posting the last five chapters this and next week. There are a few days I'm out of town and won't be able to. BUT what I really wanted to say is that when I was done writing, I quickly went over what every chapter is about. I do feel happy with how the draft turned out, but with that said, it's not yet the story I want to tell. The last few months I've been planning on what to change during my editing and rewriting. While Discordia will be the same at heart, there are a lot of improvements I want to make and I know with those I will turn Discordia into an amazing story. I'm about to head down town to sit at a café and plot for a few hours. I've already started planning the second book, and will also be planning the third one. I think I want a greater overview of it all. 
          
          These are the improvements I want to make: Flesh out some of the characters more. I don't think I've done Samuel and Flora justice for example. I want Thalia to take more action instead of being passive. She will need to in the next book, and it's not something out of the blue really. She's always been that way in my head. So in a way, I haven't done her justice either. I want to cut out some of the chapters that feel more like fillers. I want to improve the description of this magical place. And I also want to do a lot of other things I can't tell you about. You'll find out if you read all the books. 
          
          Anyway! Thank you all for helping me accomplish this. I know I couldn't have done it without wattpad.

GUYS! I am writing the last chapter of Discordia RIGHT NOW! I am fairly happy with how chapter 29 turned out. When I am done writing the last chapter, I will do a little editing before I post the chapters 25-30. And then I'll start planning the second book. As you may know, this is the unedited version of Discordia. I will leave it unedited for a few months before I read it through and start the editing process. I have taken many of your comments into account, but feel free to leave more comments on how I can make it better. This is amazing. Crazy. Can't believe I am doing this. A big thank you to everyone who's been reading, voting and commenting. You are the best <3

Chapter 27 and 28 are also written. Can't believe I only have two chapters left. This is craaaaazy. I wanted to be done with Discordia this year, but I don't think I honestly thought I would. I thought I would be the happiest person in history after being done, but honestly I feel really sad, hahah. I don't want it to be over... which it won't. There are two more books to write in the series. And I'm very excited about those. They will be even better than Discordia. I will reveal the name of the second book when Discordia is done! I might actually finish it tonight, since I won't be able to sleep anyway... or maybe tomorrow. Goooosh. This is crazy!!! Okay. Rant over.

Chapter 25 and 26 are written, but not edited at all. I need to edit them a bit before I post them. I hope you will like them. But after they are posted, there are only four more chapters. I think chapter 27 will be the best chapter of the book. It will be fun to write. Can't believe I'm so close now.

I wanted to be done with Discordia by the end of summer. I had too much going on for that to happen, and too little magic in my fingers. Well, today I started writing again. I had to skip chapter 25 for a little. It's such a heavy chapter and I don't even know where to start. So I'm writing on chapter 26. Going better than I thought it would. Not sure when I'll be done though, because I have so much going on in my life. I only have these small moments when I can write. My new deadline is November. Wish me luck!

Chapter 23 is posted! I'm not super happy with it. But it will have to do. I'll save it for the editing process! And as I've said, chapter 24 is already written, but I'll post it tomorrow. I'm currently writing 25, and as I'll be working all week, I'm not sure when I'll be able to finish it. I have to get up for work in 4 hours :'( I start at 5am. Whyyyy

Chapter 23 is done-ish! Lots of dialogue, so I'll try and dilute it a little. And there are some things I think I want to expand on and include. But this is going pretty well :) Oh, and chapter 24 is already written btw!
