Still writing, but this time I'm writing my first draft with pen and paper.
I feel that I get distracted so easily on the sentence level that I
can't help but revise and delete and fix and agonize at them to get it
right. I know that first draft should be shitty, but my brain just can't
let it be.
So, I'm tricking my brain into writing by hand. It's working so far. 25
minutes in, and I've written about 400 words (and a percentage of that
is crap, but workable).
Oh, I know that revision will be a bitch, but at least I'll have a
completed story. You can't fix something if it doesn't exist, so they
say.
I'm ambivalent with posting copywork content now. I copy four pages to keep it small and digestible, but it is too short for me, personally. There are moments where I want to copy the whole scene, so it would be eight pages long. And I am also wary of possible copyright strike if I do so. At this moment, I am putting a hold on posting copywork content.
