Jul. 19th, 2018 12:21 pmI started writing a post earlier but it devolved into bratty ranting so I made it private.
I figured out a way to kickstart reading in a way that I actually finish my books by the end of the day. Let's see how long it lasts, but so far I've finished Cuckoo Song and The Moorchild in the past two days. Today I'm trying for Dragonsong.
Ok arguably, the fact that The Moorchild is like 60K words only helped a lot, but Cuckoo Song is 130K words, and anyway Dragonsong is closer to to The Moorchild.
( rambling about these two changeling stories! )
Also I think that 60k as a guide is good for my own original writing? The thing I'm working on is very arc-based at the moment, so 30 - 60k per arc sounds like a good guide to me. I need to stop bloating it up, is why.
