Realizing that Act II of Lost Letters is SO FUCKIN LONG because I have hardwired my brain to write a four act structure. Despite my best efforts, it has been going thru mitosis and splitting into two discrete acts. Fml

#writeblr #writing #my wips #lost letters #heart of lead tag #NO snappy three act structure for you #you will write a 150k first draft with three mini-climaxes and you will LIKE IT #it is genuinely my fault for adding six chapters instead of sticking to the outline #but like #✨ character development ✨#the outline was only Events y'know #and also discovery is the primary joy of writing so I'm glad it has a mind of its own #but this will be a bear to edit I just know it #in positive news we ARE cresting 75k!!!#which is more than twice as long as the longest partial draft I have ever produced for this book #fantastic 10/10 #OGs know I wrote the first concept chapters for this project in 2018 haha #pandemic killed my creativity for a couple years I think #but WE'RE SO BACK #(ignore me universe I'm not trying to jinx myself lol)
