In order to avoid completely cluttering up this community, I’ll add writing updates in comments below this post.

You can basically follow me building my books, struggling with my characters and putting them through hardship.

I’m not sure how easy or hard it is to jump to the last reply in a thread, but I hope it’s doable.

If you feel supportive, just give me a few yays or high-fives in a comment. 👍

    Day 14 of NaNoWriMo, and I got nothing.

    Yesterday was probably too big of a push. Getting up very early today might have added to it all. I’m also realizing I’m not putting enough of the German Christmas traditions into the story, which means heavier editing than I like.

    And I even have my first buyer for the story if I get it out fast. bangs head against desk

    Brain is this mix of stress, anxiety, anger and frustration. Because this month is the absolute worst in book sales in over a year. I haven’t sold a single book on Amazon (but I have almost 200 free downloads, yay). Sold a couple on Google Play Store. All of this despite a paid promo early this month.

    I do have the plot sorted out. I know what I’ll do for the minor antagonist, while the major antagonist will not escape unscathed. I just have to write it, and that’s where I fail.

    Tomorrow is a new day. deep breath
