Any idea what's slowing you down? Just not clicking with anything?

true true.

I have problem with consistency before, i was hoping if i get into a community of writers, maybe it will get me going again

The longest streak of writing i had was over the summer where i wrote at least a piece of poem or short story every week

I go through cycles of that and the only way I can help myself is set a daily word goal and a monthly goal I want to hit... It doesn't always happen, but I didn't have a month last year where I didn't write at least 10k...

which is disappointing to have a month of only 10k but at least the year end total was like 255k...

Can def help to see other people writing and be able to talk about stuff be it problems or cool stuff being worked on

yeah, that's what i'm also hoping for. i tried setting out goal, but unless i'm on an actual time crunch, i just delay and delay ;;v;;

I can give you a due date lmao

yeah let's try that 😆

i usually can work out something when we're in a fic-exchange or something

Are you doing a first draft or an edit right now?

First draft

For short stories? So......... what if ... deadline for swapping stories... Is gonna be Jan 31. Up to 5k?

I don't know how long your short stories normally run.

My short stories are usually around 2k at best, although i have written 5k for a christmas fic exchange once 👀

Okie dokie. What is the theme of the exchanges?

No theme to exchange. Just work on your project. >3

Cause I'm already working on something and can't do a themed project rn lmao. I don't need more distractions.

ah, okay 😄 sounds good

And anyone else in <#795394217228632085> who wants to participate... DUE DATE FOR EXCHANGES JAN 31

Exchanges? EXPLAAAIN

Explaaaaain ~~or ill go Dalek mode on you~~

: - D

YEH BOY. Sharing fiction. Short story or part of a bigger work. At the end of this month, check back in with each other and exchange a piece for crit.

Meh the only non fanfiction work I've made so far is 101 Right Wingers

Maybe up to 3500 words for the first one since @isoboto said her stories are normally around 2k, and so we aren't overwhelmed.

3500 words? Seems kinda small

Nonfiction can be submitted too. I'm mostly just like

I CANT do anything with poetry

Wait...

Waaaait

Previously I did say 5k

Offensive is A SHE?!

but, I also don't know how many people we gonna get ahahaha

So we can do 5k

and figure out

how best to return crits between us all

I thought offensive was a he!

This is the most shocking thing I've heard all day

@isoboto PRONOUN CHECK
