School & Story · 2:20am Sep 5th, 2013
Stupid school. I start tomorrow, and I'm already behind in work. How is that even possible you ask? Well it is, and I've managed to do it. I've been writing very slowly, and now school is going to make that worse. Don't expect a new story for some time, and I've decided to write a lot before I publish anything so I don't keep people waiting months for short updates.
Thanks to all the people willing to help me with this story, sorry for saying I was going to write a story and it taking forever. I will get this story written eventually! Try to bear with me.
Thanks again to everyone who support the stuff I do! Y'all are great
Its all good, I'm in my senior year of highschool, so I can't write much as well, I'm also currently suffering from writer's block, so I can't post my chapters at a frequent rate, I write down parts as I think them up, but that's usually one or two sentences every 4 hours. it sucks. anyway, take your time, school is more important right now :3
Best wishes for finding time to write! I just started another semester of college at the beginning of last week. Seems kinda slow right now, but I might just be ignoring the work I have to do to some extent...

Any particular variety? If you're only writing two sentences per four hours, focus on writing three or four. Don't worry about paragraphs or chapters. Also, it doesn't have to be great quality. Write now, cut later...
1330797 variety? How do you mean?

Thanks for understanding Yeah I'm also starting senior year of high school so I've got all that college stuff to take care of.
I still get to write like 50 words a day, so its sorta progress... kinda
I'm going camping this weekend so NO INTERNET I'm going to bring a notebook to try and write ideas down so maybe by the end of camping I'll have something that looks like a story
1330825 cool, I don't post anything until I have an entire chapter down on paper. Then I go through looking for spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors, correct them, THEN type them up. it makes less mess for an editor, and with my OCD, I probably don't need to look for one.

Heh. When I write (or should I say IF...) I usually write on the computer, doing all of the spelling, grammar, punctuation checking on the fly. I occasionally look at it later to double check. The thing is, I usually don't misspell things and I fix any mistakes right away. Of course, my brain also likes to play auto-correct, meaning that 'skimming' for spelling errors is potentially risky if I want to be sure. The computer is good at it and faster than me having to re-read carefully.
Admittedly writing on paper generally results in more actual writing and less thumb twiddling about what happens next...

Sure.
Try to enjoy the camping and make sure to pack a flashlight or lantern for that late night writing. :P Congratulations, you get to experience the wonders of Internet Withdrawal
