First drafts are for getting to know your characters, the setting and ideas. Drafts 2-37 are for perfecting all of the above

Wrote my first draft and I'm only two chapters into editing and I'm fairly sure the next draft is going to look so different 🤣

No I physically can’t 😔 I need it to look like a book already. I don’t know what’s wrong with me but I just can’t and it’s actually driving me mad because it takes x2 longer

I think my biggest issue is when I suddenly realize I’m basically just rewriting a story I’ve watched/read so I try to change minor things to get it away from that one thing and those minor changes end up as huge issues halfway through the story

I have my aunt read each chapter when I finish it. She reads it because she likes the story and is happy to read it and lets me know if it at least makes sense. I don't have an official editor.

i write each part on a notebook then rewrite it in the docs where my book is written…does that still count as a first draft ?

Wrote my first draft while dream feeding a newborn at 4am. It read like a bad trip made of lore dumps and allegories to personal D&D campaigns. But it got written!

I need to repeat to myself “do NOT edit before the story is written”

I keep telling myself that the first draft is me telling the story to myself, later drafts is the story I'm telling others 😅
