Re: Writing Thread

[sarillia]

I have trainwrecks like that sitting on my laptop, but I still love them in all their terribleness. I'm just never showing them to anyone.

But it sounds like your challenge went really well. Like you said, the point is to get you writing and you definitely did that. Good luck with the subbing! I keep telling myself I'm going to do that but then I chicken out.

I'm also weirdly happy every time I come across another person who writes short, sparse first drafts because I get so frustrated by all the writing advice everywhere assuming that everyone is too wordy and making universal rules about how the second draft should be shorter.

That sparse first draft is my way of just getting it down. Then I can go to down on description and little gestures that they're making while talking and fleshing it all out. There are published writers who do this as well, so it's not just us.

The only universal rule is "Do What Works for You."

And I believe in your writing, and that you will one day get to the point of subbing it. I don't know if it will make you feel better or worse, but I had 21 rejections last month and I have 28 subs out right now.

Re: Writing Thread

I completely agree with you about everyone having to find what works for them. Which is why it's so annoying when other people offering advice act like things are universal when they aren't. I just need to ignore them though.

And thank you for the encouragement. :)
