Ok, first question - about time it takes to write a chapter... As you guys all know and some of you pick on me for (lol) I update quickly. I write quickly. I've always written quickly. If I take too much time, my writing feels and sounds contrived and I don' t like my "voice" when I agonize over every word. If the sentene doesn't flow, then it sounds stuttery and bleh and I'll back off and not write before I'll sit there and painstakingly filter verbage. I don't know why I'm like that. Stories have just always come naturally to me, and putting them to paper feels like it too should come naturally. If I can't tell my story, then I have no business trying to force it out of me. I tend to go in writing streaks too. Like I'll write 2-3 stories or so really quickly, then disappear off the face of the earth and be completely unable to write even when I feel "inspired" by a great idea. Maybe it's just I think everything sounds like crap sometimes and sometimes I don't, I dunno. But it's always come very quickly for me... When I'm "on", I tend to pump out a 2,000-3,000 word chapter in about an hour of solid focus. If I'm REALLY on, I'll do a couple of these a day. I try to average about 10,000 words a day writing between journalling and story writing, it really just depends which I focus on.
