Me editing my writing:
I have two versions of this paragraph that I need to decide between. Let's read them over and decide which one is better, delete the other one, and move on.
*30 minutes later*
I now have four versions of this paragraph.

Things I overuse in my writing: line breaks, em dashes, commas, semicolons, adverbs, run-on sentences, the word "says"
Fucks I give: 0

You ever write a thing and then look at it later and go "Like it gets the point across but its just not it?"
I'm writing Tangerines and Salmon the next bit of my Playing with Fire series, and its just not working out. Like some of it is good, and others I feel like I'm dancing around the conflict because its hard to commit to it.
From the outside nothing has changed, but she can sense the wind on her skin and Sanji feels like the start of a thunderhead -- like he's looming and waiting to strike.
This I like, The whole partial flashback stuff with Arlong I'm like.... it could be worse...but it could also be written better.

Breaking my own rule of only focusing on drafting first because this wip will be a monster and I might as well edit here and there to take some burden off when editing is all I have left to do.

The first chapter is pretty much done. Just needs to be polished, I'm garbage at editing, so go easy on me.
I gotta edit the Toymakers dialogue to his mock german, which is difficult for me, so I gotta go look up some references on writing that dialgoue.
It won't be long, just a bit of a teaser for what's going to be a very long fic.

i think my goal for 2024 will be try and publish three books
get eldritch tech support edited, add some stuff, get some cover art, slap it all together in a volume and sell it probably on itch.io or maybe over on kofi
get the YA bee novel i'm editing done and together and try to sell it to a publishing house
put together all of my shorts and writing prompts and everything into a small volume and maybe put that together on itch.io or kofi or whatever

I’m re-reading my own 87k word fanfic so I can write a summery/ending for it because it hasn’t been updated in like 10 years, and trying to stop myself from completely editing some truly shitty parts because that’s not what I’m doing—that’s not what I’m doing.

I’ve been trying to write the last chapter of Shadowsinger [erotic audio for women] for months, but I haven’t been able to write anything I’m happy with. Every time I sit down to write it, I just end up deleting everything. I know that some people are waiting for that last chapter and I hate that I haven’t updated it since September.
So, after my little fandom break, I went back to that fic and read it from the beginning and I realized that I hate it, which is probably why I haven’t been able to finish it. The story I planned is not the story I wrote and some of the dialogue is awful and there are SO MANY grammatical mistakes. In all honesty, I feel a bit embarrassed that people have read it 😅 But hey, I guess this is proof that I am becoming a better writer. 
I have come to the conclusion that I have to edit the entire fic if I’m ever going to be able to finish it. So my question is - should I just go back and edit every single chapter and hope that people re-read them, or should I delete the fic and upload it again once it’s finished? I am leaning toward deleting it…
