( No Title )
Another 3k written today. At this pace I should have 6 or 7 days of writing left before the draft is finished. 🤞🤞🤞🤞
🔫 How. How. Literally how. Literally how do you do that.
💞💌😻 😉
Well, if you want to *actually* know my method–
I outline HEAVILY. I do an initial outline at the beginning, and then more, smaller outlines going forward when things start to change and take shape as I’m writing.
I write in 15 minute sprints. Set a timer for 15 minutes and write with NO distractions. Nothing but putting words on the page as fast as possible. With this method I get between 600-800 words per 15 minutes, since thanks to the outline, I don’t have to think about what I’m writing next.
Between sprints I let myself check tumblr for a few minutes, get up and stretch, do a few chores. Then I come back and do another 15 minutes.
4 sprints of 15 minutes each usually gives me about 3000 words.
We use the same writing techniques for novels, fanfiction, and our own rp!!
All writing is great writing. And honestly speaking as a system, a lot of our novel writing is secretly rp because we pass out the characters to roleplay back and forth as we’re writing XD
