minus-squareSheltac@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·7 months agoOh yeah. Some of my worst work is on those mega-inspired days where I sit for 10h and crank out 10000 words. To this day I don’t know why I do that if I end up throwing most of it away. Maybe it’s good to get bad plot out of the system.

minus-squarecantstopthesignal@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up2·7 months agoFor me, a good day is about 1000 words. I really run out of juice after that and just type bland shit. That’s about 3 months for a decent draft.
minus-squareSheltac@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·7 months agoOh it depends massively for me. One of my best (IMHO) short stories is 8k and was written over 10-12h in a day. But that has to be a pretty special day. On bad days I usually go into the negatives 😂
