`_sprint` to start another.

the sad thing is, i think i’ll have to cut a lot of what i wrote

i realized that there’s a plothole if i keep it in

I hate when that happens

I certainly am going to have to go all the way through my story

As I use "would" a lot in it

And it kind of ruins the plot

out of 23 pages, I use would 321 times <:weirdpepe:803800661933555714>

oof

that’s what editing is for

my issue is that i had a character freak out about something that she really shouldn’t have freaked out about because halfway through the sprint i realized that the situation couldn’t be completely unheard of otherwise it wouldn’t make any sense with how she reacts to another similar situation later on

Yeah but someone from this text channel says you won't finish this story if you edit it all while writing

You should add a fear factor to it than

because anything can be terrifying in a certain setting

Imagine going into a foggy woods

I certainly would be more nervous about a rabbit in a foggy woods than in a normal woods

oh yeah, i agree with that, I didn’t mean that you should edit as you write, i was trying to imply that you shouldn’t worry because you can edit later

the issue with this character is that there was too much fear

The thing about me is I am having people read as I continue my story

procuring?

No not that, cause you probably would want to do it quickly.

So handling it with care wouldn't make sense

whip out?

All I can think it pulling out lol

You know when pirates actually expand the telescope

ohhhh

Ah I really don't know how to describe this lol

expand?

detracting?

Opposite of retracting is extending or extracting.
