@airsplay Aww, my sweetie pie! First of all, enjoy your vacation, dear. Make sure to study a little every day so you don't feel too stressed later. Try creating a simple schedule for yourself, but don't forget to give yourself plenty of time to relax and enjoy your break too. Take good care of yourself, okay? Drink lots of water, eat healthy food, and get enough sleep.
Wooow! I'm really excited to read your book, dear! But please don't put too much pressure on yourself. To be honest, one reason many writers struggle to complete ongoing books is because they lose motivation when they don't get the response they were hoping for.
My suggestion would be to first write the entire rough draft of your book. Make the story exist completely before publishing it chapter by chapter. Once the draft is finished, you can focus on editing and uploading consistently without worrying about writer's block or losing motivation midway. It also gives you peace of mind because you'll already know how the story ends.
But of course, do what feels right to your heart. You know yourself and your writing process best.
And yes, I completely understand. I also want to finish this book as soon as possible, but unexpected things keep happening. I keep adding new scenes, changing plot points, and making edits to upcoming chapters, so everything ends up taking more time than I planned.
To be honest, writing has felt a little difficult lately. I'm not really sure why, but I've been feeling quite demotivated. There are so many things happening at the same time, and sometimes it becomes overwhelming.
But yes, I missed you a lot too. I uninstalled Instagram for now and probably won't install it again until June is over. We'll talk there once I'm back.
Until then, please take care of yourself and enjoy your vacation to the fullest!
