Thirty-seven pages in three days(aprox)! That’s worth mentioning!
I have just, at one o clock in the morning on Sunday, completed a thirty-seven page rough draft which I started around eleven o clock in the morning on Thursday. For a rough draft, and for me, that’s amazing! And there was not a single poem in this story, not one. No filler. No mention of the page length. Though I sure did think about it because I told myself I couldn’t look at the page length until I finished the story. That was so successful I think I may do it again that way. It is my fourth longest story at the present moment and my eleventh long story(21 to 75 pages).
However, I haven’t edited the story yet, which is going to take more time. But a rough draft that long in three, or maybe four, days is not bad at all. I’d only written down the story ideas for it on Wednesday so its pretty impressive. generally in the editing process my stories get a bit longer, so this might end up being even longer than it now is. But that will wait for another day to find out.
