Considering camp was during the last two weeks of the semester, I'm pretty proud that I was able to finish redrafting one entire chapter and get a solid start on a second. Did I avoid doing work? Yes. Yes I did. Was it worth it? Also yes. Will I pay for it later? Probably.

I had a collaborative writing project a while back where I had to write a death scene. It wasn't even a major character but it was important to the plot, so I was very surprised when it hit me so hard. I had tears running down my cheeks while I was writing. I'm a crier. #crpshrikes

Day behind 😅 I usually know the ending before I know the beginning. It comes to me easier anyway..
Now for the end of my current project/series... still working that out. This past week I've wanted to set 🧨 to my current ending and go for the unexpected.
Bonus: Revising w/ feedback!

Idk if I've made this clear lol but I'm a very instinctual writer. I don't do a whole lot of planning. Sometimes I don't know what shape the ending will take until my fingers are typing it out. 20-odd years of experience will do that, I guess.

Keep writing, hope it comes to me before I get there? I mean, it hasn’t yet, but maybe it will? I know roughly how this book and the next 2 will end. Details? Who needs ‘em! *nervous laugh*
Bonus: finish the new draft. Start preparing for publishing tasks. CRP has been so inspiring.

I usually know the ending before I know the beginning!! I initially conceive of my projects more in terms of vibes and themes, so the first thing I figure out is how a story arc could reflect the themes I want to work with
then the issue is figuring out where to begin… #camprevpit #crpshrikes

It's definitely true that I have a solid understanding of my book's ending down. What's left for me to really figure out is how (if at all) I finalize it as the duology I imagine it being.
Where "Book 1" ends, that's settled. How the rest fits in, well... still working through that.

Suppose I can answer the main and bonus prompts at once here! In my draft, there's a moment when I think the reader will understand completely why Verity has just done something terrible, while simultaneously understanding just how much the other character in the scene hates her for it.
