I 100% need a page turner. I have dropped my kindle on my face more times than I can count. Don’t become another victim!!

I think everyone feels that way to be honest. You’ve got that idea in your head and keep rereading and checking that you’re hitting all the points and executing that idea the best way you can. Keep going you can do it!!

It’s a weird one for me, when I’m watching a film, nooope. But I religiously watch this YouTube channel called Deadmeat that recaps horror films, and I always get bursts of inspiration from that for scenes or lines.

Completely valid. I am 100% guilty of drinking the kool-aid over the years but I can understand why it’s not for everyone. There are definitely some parts that are a slog (cough oathbringer) but it’s still my guilty pleasure! And looking forward to WoT

I don’t think anything is too cliché if executed in a creative way! Almost every story has elements of clichés anyway and if it’s the story you want to write then 10000% write it!

I just went to look at writing excuses on Spotify and there are SO MANY episodes oh my goodness you weren’t joking!

That’s so good. Whenever I feel like I’m losing control of things I stop reading back whatever I am writing and leave it at least a week. Then start again and it always helps so much

Do you use any sort of process to outline? I’ve been finding myself almost discovery writing for the last few weeks instead of outlining but really think some structure might benefit me. Also, sorry for 21 questions, any recs on writing podcasts? Besides “intentionally blank” I’m clueless

Always good to be able to get back to a project. Have you found looking back at it with fresh eyes has made a difference?

I have it the same as how I like to sleep, complete silence. Although maybe I haven’t found that perfect soundtrack 😂

I prefer numbers and names to be honest. “Chapter 1 - A Fall From Grace”. But yeah, not a deal breaker!

As I’m sure you know, progress isn’t linear but I do firmly believe in the compounding effect. 100 word days here, 400 word days there, in 3/4/5 months you will have quite the chunk! And 100 words today is still more than you did yesterday.
