Questionable Questing

I have this thing about not liking my writing as it doesn't meet my standards but the only way to improve is to do more writing. I'm thinking next week I'll get going on more of Warlock's Blade as I need to do more writing as a passion and hobby to give myself things to do creatively

My aunt just called, was checking in on her dogs that I'm looking out for. But the best advice I have for writing is you have to be willing to treat it like a job sometimes. No matter your mood or the day, you have to set certain times where you are going to write a certain number of words and the more hold yourself to it, you start learning how to work around or push through writers block.

I love writing. I enjoy it. I genuinely believe its my purpose in life. But it fucking suck sometimes. lol. I get tired. I do all my writing on the computer since that's just what works for me and sometimes it is so tempting to just click down on YouTube and waste my time watching funny videos about cats or guys growing meat in a lab using a grape, but its that self discipline and getting those habits.

And unfortunately you build those by working and exercising and forcing yourself to write when you would really rather being doing anything else.

I sleep and yeah discipline. Learning to love your progress and what you can do and what you push yourself to do without depressing yourself. And I am thankful you like writing as it makes talking porn with you mix in quality literature which is more fun

I'm kind of tired and have a little bit of a headache. The dogs didn't want to go to sleep last night and were freaking out a little bit since my Aunt was gone and with My therapist writing the first five thousand words was easy, the fucking editing that came afterwards was the real pain in the butt. But I'm proud and I got a pizza order coming soon and a chill night to relax.

And Andrew taint is pretty fun to look at, not because he's interesting honestly he's a very boring and pretty stupid guy, but seeing the right combination of algorithms on various social media sites turning the wannabe cult leader into a superstar in a couple of weeks and then taking it all away even faster is pretty fascinating.

How is your editing process and how have you learned to do it? And got anything for headache?
Andy333

I've got plenty of stuff for headaches. The issue I have is when ever I'm writing I'll whisper it out loud and then repeated it back several times, to make sure it all sounds natural. That ties in with my editing process where I'll play this game I learned in school where you have a sentence and you try to eliminate as many words as possible while still retaining the same meaning.
Bob is bob
Bob is bob
Ah. Interesting process.
Andy333

Which reading out loud is fine for a little while, but if your doing a writing session that's several hours long and you're rereading the same sentence over and over again trying to find a way to restructure it so it makes more sense because one word you like doesn't fit. We'll firstly you better hope your room has good sound proofing or you'll look crazy to you roommates. lol But also you get headaches.

Yikes. Very yikes. Want to talk Invincible or you not feeling good enough for it?

I once spent a solid fifteen minutes trying to get a sentence to properly include the phrase, less than you could count on one hand.

Don't worry I'm already starting to feel better. I was also a little stressed because I was worried I couldn't get the chapter out today. Plus once I get some food I'll be set. Thank you for asking though.
