A funny little something occurred while writing One Last Mission today · 4:48pm May 10th

I went to preface this by stating that everything is fine, no progress was lost or anything like that. This literally is just a funny thing that happened that I didn't even know was possible.

You see, I write all my stuff in one single document; helps with motivation I find, as starting a new doc each chapter and seeing a blank page is suprisingly more intimidating than one that already has words on it. Every word you've read up till now, all 250k+ of One Last Mission, was all written in one singular doc... until today.

Turns out, google docs have a word limit! Likelihood is, you all didn't know that too because you don't write everything in one massive master document. Consider this your thing that you learned today, courtesy of some random dragon on the internet.

As I stated at the start, everything is fine and this isn't going to hurt OLM's progress. What I have Act 2 – Chapter 13 has been moved to a new doc that will likely also reach its limit at some point in the far off future. Will the story be concluded before then? I genuinely don't know, as that stuff isn't something that worries my. A story is as long as it needs to be, that is my view.

Anyways, see you all when the next chapter is up!

Seems like the lag would be crazy for a doc that long, but I get your point

On PC? Nope. On phone? At first yes, but at some point it strangely turned back around to running smoothly again.

I know I'm strange in that regard, most people prefer to separate chapters by full docs, and there is nothing wrong with that.
