Teens Writing for Teens, the 5th

Hey everyone! What's going on?

hey Myst! hows it going?

Ok. Trying to get back to my WIP but am being too distracted by the internet... haha. How about you?

ok writing a little.

Hey MR!

I'm drinking coffee and revising. I pulled an all-nighter lol

So did I. hehehehe

We are currently going through a 30 hour storm. Yay :/ too bad it's on a Saturday.

Aw, that is too bad, Taylor.

GAH! My Act 1 grew from 16K to 20K and I still probably need to add in another 2-3K to expand some scenes. Some stuff will need to be axed...

Just went over 100K... i need to end this book soon!

Hi again...I've been bad this week and hardly written anything. TOO MUCH WORK. How are you?

Heya, Alouette.

I'm good. Trying to figure out what scenes to cut in my WIP...I'm revising.

Sorry you haven't written lately...but how are you otherwise?

Hi! Revising sounds pretty fun right now actually. I'm good thanks, just been super-busy with school stuff. I had to go in this morning to help out with interviews, then I'm back this evening for a drama thing my friends are putting on. You wouldn't think it was the weekend ha...

On the bright side, it's supposed to snow this afternoon/evening which is exciting (Yes, I'm still a ten year old inside...)

Hey Alo, Sorry about your bad week.

I'm ok... finally getting some writing done but i just broke 100K... and not as close to done as I want to be. GRRRRRRRRR!!!

Hi, guys.

Hi Wow, 100k is amazing. You must be a really fast writer! When you revise, I'm sure you'll find a lot you can cut out so I wouldn't worry too much. Personally, I think it's better to write too much than too little.

I always write too little.

I have the opposite problem. But a lot of people write just the bare bones then go back and pad it out after and it works great for them. Divergent by Veronica Roth was only 40k in the first draft and by the final draft it was around 100k I think and that's a great book imo.

That's how we do it

back from food shopping, drinking a monster and trying to not write this scene too long...

GRRRRRRRR!

I was rewriting WTS's ending but I have writers' block now.

I can't wait to get to revisions, even though I hate them. This book needs A LOT of help but I *think* it has potential. We'll see.

Working on AM for the first time in a while. ...Anybody have an interest in YAWNing in a bit?

I know what you mean. I need to rewrite the ending of F.R.E.A.K.s... difficult thing is the ending i have now has been planned and set in stone since i was 14!!! I cant even think of how it could end any differently...
