What is a writer?
A miserable little pile of words!


Call me MP or Miz


Fiction attempted, with various levels of success.


Yes, I do need help, thank you for noticing.

Me: "Oh, I have an idea for this prompt!"
Also me: has written 1000 words, without actually getting to the aforementioned idea yet

I Did A Crime and it's now over 2000 words long.
The idea idea still hasn't been fully realised, but it's getting there.

oh wow, lol, my passes basically are:

  • transfer from discord (yes i know) notes/scratch dialogue to google doc prose
  • little re-edits as i go/get stuck
  • full editing pass
  • pass as i transfer it into cohost with markdown
  • reading the draft on mobile to check for any final errors
  • me continuing to spot errors and fiddling with it for days after

but like, if things are going well, noting the small sample size as i've not been at this long, i seem to be able to write maybe 3 days a week. just that writing is all i'll do that day.

i take like a 2 hour break before the full pass. i really should like give it a day, maybe do more than one full pass for that. but i am still very impatient and wanna get more out there. still feels like a miracle when i have written something.
