Ain’t gonna hit the Sunday deadline this week. A mixture of my Sisyphean struggle to become successful in some crappy game (I cannot win), my own laziness (got distracted by random garbage), and lack of comfort (rainworld reference, got sick, sleep deprived).
          I dont have anybody to announce this too. But it’s nice to feel official.

My aunt and uncle have bought me an iPad… that’s… amazing… they’re so kind, I kinda feel bad accepting it… but it don’t feel bad being able to write again, now that I’m back I feel like i should mention something.
          
          I watched a video about storytelling, and I fall under the “pantsers” category of writing, where I make up stuff as I go… and looking back at my work… it’s not as good as I want it.
          Starting from now I will have a more thought out storyline with my ideas made in advance, and all I must do is write them. 
          I will also be revising some chapters that were already released to help fit the better storyline… I do feel a bit bad about changing stuff somebody may have already read, but I feel it will be best as a quality improvement. 
          
          Slug is back in business baby!

I should also mention that since school is started back up again… I’m probably gonna take a big hit to efficiency.
            Lots to balance, Clash of Clans, nightcafe, the Fortnite battle pass, chores… and that’s just the stuff at home, not even mentioning school

I think I understand why those kids at summer school were like
          "Nonononono don't go to Wattpad please you don't know what your getting into"
          Questionable fanfics
          Because after scrolling through the main... Page hub place idk
          There's was a sonic book fanfiction with the cover of a rainbow sonic with the title "I am not gay"
          ...
          I'm sure it's a good read, and the writer took time and care crafting it, and is super popular among the Wattpad community for it's brave and relentless criticisms of the homophobic hiring practices of eggman industries~
          But why is it there? Please go away gay sonic I don't want gay sonic make him go away.
          Ima chalk it up to the algorithm seeing I read WoF Sunny & Deathstar Attorneys at Law... Something like that.
          And everything under fanfiction is lumped in the same algorithm recommendation.
          Yes, yes, it's just a fluke in the algorithm.
          Because I refuse to believe gay sonic belongs.
          I hate the modern sonic games anyways, and I never enjoyed the classics.
          I have better sonic, I can just play rivulet.

Perhaps I got into more than I could handle, writing a book. No real training other than hands on experience making tiny stories that could fit in the description. Sans homosexual birds, I'd say that was 2 and a half school notebook pages long. But that's not a book! That's 2 pages! How long does this take? I don't have the attention span, I keep getting distracted by plants vs zombies :/

@Scug_Lat I think time is what got me the views and votes and that I am writing on a fairly large fanbase, and also some of my other friends on Wattpad helped. And I think I can help you slightly.

@WolvesOfHope about your book, how did you get so many views and votes? I know how to write, but not like the getting popular part. I got book smarts not street smarts. Ps rainwings are the coolest I'll die on this hill.

@Scug_Lat it doesn't matter if you're a slow writer or suffer lack of attention, as long as you enjoy writing it, it doesn't need to be long or written fast, take my book Dragonstar for example, I write it when I feel like it and have an update schedule of about six weeks a chapter
