im trying to add two ideas at once (and just a sprinkle of romance) and I think that's the problem
I either have to
a) stfu with all my yappery dialogue
b) get rid of the romance (I DON'T WANT TO. THEY'RE LITERALLY. SO UNSERIOUS IN THIS BOOK ITS LIKE THEY DON'T CARE)
or c) split the plots and make one into a second book.
but idk the idea of 2,000 page passion project with insane wild shit at every chapter that barely makes sense until you read all 5 books sounds pretty fun
