Question of the Day - Part 4
FrickingKaos:
I don't really know what I'm most proud of honestly. I'm proud of all my work but I guess maybe FYO cause it was my first step out of the romance box. Since then I've really branched out with my writing.
Purpura Lipstick:
I think they normally take me anywhere from 3 months to just under a year or maybe a year if I work on them straight and don't take year long breaks.

Since February, Lisa and I have been writing the joint story together and it's so hard to do another one at the same time. I just don't have the concentration for it.

I don't have the concentration for it either, and yet this massive list happens. How do you make yourself work on one at a time? What do you do with ideas that come in for new stories while you're working on your current ones?
Because seriously I have...
Running Up That Hill
Where You Are
Suddenly I'm All Alone
and the un-posted ones..
Thesis of a Cruel Angel
Two Worlds Apart
Faithfully
Forever Like This
Between the Lines of Reason
Conspiracy Theories
So Typically Me
Ew that's a lot, all with varying degrees of completeness. Some of those un-posted side projects will probably get finished before the posted ones do lol.
For me, to finish a story it really varies. I can take forever or I can finish them pretty quickly. I go on spurts with updates as I'm sure some of you have noticed with Running Up That Hill. I will go for months without updating and then do a few chapters really quickly. But sometimes I get those stories that write themselves and I can do an entire novel in a month or two. My novel length stories usually run about 25 chapters long, though.

--- End quote ---
2-3 months. Less if it's something I'm focusing on.
