It turns out writing is so much harder when you're ACTUALLY trying to make it sound good and I would like a refund on the revisions process thanks #writing #writesky #editing #revisions #fantasyauthor #author
Using text-to-speech on your own book doc for editing:
Pros: Helps you find subtle issues you wouldn’t notice just re-reading the text.
Cons: Feels a little masturbatory to listen to a bad audiobook of your own writing when folding laundry.
Editing progress:
Chapters total: 22
Chapters with beta feedback incorporated: 19
How many chapters it feels like I have left: Eleventy-infinity
