Gods above it's been a while ain't it!
Strange for me to think that I started writing on this site and now my first novel is actually published!
Honestly, never thought I'd even pop on here again, but I thought why not, what's the harm.
Hey all.
I've been MIA for the last while from this site and with good reason too. I've been working on furthering myself as a writer and finishing up a manuscript I'm working on.
But I want to announce that within the next month, everything on my Wattpad page will be gone. Personally, I'm no longer happy with this website and in the grand scheme of trying to better myself, Wattpad just isn't the place for me to do it.
I hope you all understand.
Aww. I really liked seeing you on here, but that’s more than understandable. I’m actually just starting to become a bit more alive now with a massive project in the works, but yeah, this site isn’t the best for writers. Hope you achieve your writing goals elsewhere! @Toxic-Synergy
So I've just got the new Wattpad update.
What in the everloving hell is wrong with this new layout!!!!! Dark mode barely makes it better
On the otherhand though, dark mode is god tier
Ah, A Knight of Nowhere is such a mess of a book. But I'll be damned if I don't see this through eventually.
Even if I'm likely going to spend my time fully reworking Shadowsight's world for the umpteenth time. I WILL MAKE THIS WORK IF IT IS THE DEATH OF ME!!!
Not sure why wattpad had my pronouns as they/them... tf?
Aaaand I've had to scrap almost a whole chapter because it turned out terrible. I've started a rewrite now and hopefully it will work
But its 1am nearly, so it's probably for the best that I get some sleep rather than adding a hole to my wall
Welp I managed to get 2200 words done today...
that being the same scene written twice since I couldn't get it right. A good few hours were spent redrafting and editing the one scene, though, it is one that I'm now proud of.
Hopefully, I can finish the rest of the chapter tomorrow!! Wish me luck :)
Good. Just be happy about what you’ve done, not what you haven’t, and always work forward! Constantly looking down on yourself and your stuff will just make it slowly get harder!
Yep!
@E_A_Hard true!! Im just glad I spent the time redrafting and editing it until it felt right. Granted I had to cut a few things, but it's a price to pay. Haha. I guess I'll see how it goes tomorrow :)
No acting like that’s not good! No focusing on word count! If you write something you enjoy, then you’ve done good!
The redrafted chapter two of Shadowsight is now out!!!
Please let me know what you think.
So how have people's lockdown lives been going anyway?
Personally, mine has been boring as all hell. With writing and cheesy YA show binges fueling my life forward. That and Spotify!
Including a lot of reading as-well. My current read is Brandon Sanderson's: Way of Kings
What are you guys currently reading?
I also wanted to let people know that if the stress of all of this is getting to them, don't hesitate to reach out. I know just how bad this can all get.
@E_A_Hard it's quite the tome of a book. But im a sucker for anything Sanderson, even though this is only the fourth of his I've read. And that book sounds really cool judging by the title! I'll have to look it up
I tried that book. Should’ve continued it. But I got distracted and haven’t picked it up since. Currently working on reading Unclean by Richard Lee Byers.
3000 Words written today. Hopefully, I'll be a bit more productive tomorrow :/
Though, I'm at a point where I'm fully falling in love with AKON again, especially the Constar plot arch. So I've REALLY been indulging myself into it. Especially since I'm now somewhat competent when compared to the original draft.
I'm going to get to editing Chapter 10 tomorrow, so hopefully, that will be up.
As well as the redrafted Chapter 2 of Shadowsight. Which I'm even more proud of than the original.
Though, for the most part, Shadowsight will be on the backburner until a large portion into AKON again, I don't wish to lose momentum whilst I have it. Though, Shadowsight is still being world built during the project, especially with how the Hunter's function.
Hopefully, both projects will end up being enjoyable when complete!!
So you should expect the two chapters to drop tomorrow, and please tell me what you think!! All of your comments and votes are appreciated!!
@E_A_Hard I suppose. I just have a tendency of trying to push myself further with my writing. Though, I suppose it's a good thing in some ways.
Dude... that is productive. I can barely get a few hundred out a week. Haha. Sometimes I’ll get 1500 in two days if I’m really pushing. Haha.
