We have new neighbours and now writing out on my deck feels ‘different’… dang it!

Left my breakfast on the bed and came back to find Teddy “The Critic” poised next to it like a vulture LOL #author #writerslife #writingcommunity #novel #dog #puppy

Nice! I also love short chapters. The longest in my current Novella is 2250 words the shortest is about 550 words. I don't tend to plan, I just write and let the story go where it goes. So chapter wise I wrote 2 yesterday :)
3 would be amazing.

I recently Rat by Stephen King which is great. (It’s in ‘If it Bleeds’ ) the main character is a writer who is producing up to 18 pages a day. I can’t imagine getting that many. I think my best was 8. Any thoughts? Is this how much SK writes in a day?

More thrift shop books. I used to be a big O.S. Card fan but I don’t like his views. That being said Ender is a good book. Blood Canticle is a first edition. The Shining is just an awesome book. #stephenking #annerice #collector
