Me through the majority of my draft:
It doesn't have to be good. It just has to be done. It doesn't have to be good. It just has to be done. It doesn't have to be good-

My first draft of my superhero romance is basically done. Gonna send it to some beta readers soon. It's...rough. Reminded of Anne Lamott and her "sh!tty first drafts"...

Down to four chapters remaining for my first draft. I have no idea how to go about editing it. Do I rewrite everything for draft 2? What about the scenes I'm missing? Do I get an alpha reader? If so, how do I get one for free? (I'm broke). I'm a little lost...

Wrote two story outlines for different stories today, and got for chapters into my new project today. 7761 words on the novella so far. Six chapters to go. Estimated finished project word count to be about 21k words.

I started a new draft today. Finished the outline and even got the opening chapter of this novella down. First drafts are always the hardest. I know I'm getting this down in the roughest possible way, but it has to actually be written if I want to improve it.

What's your favorite thing to do when setting up a new story project? I like making a playlist to help me better picture the world.

It's scary starting on a new story. I always wonder if I'm writing the right thing, if my characters are on point, if anyone will even care about this the way I do. Of course, there's no way to find out without giving it a shot. #firstdraft #zerodraft #writer #author #indieauthor #indiewriter

What do you do around book launch time? 🚀
With logistics and marketing, my brain only has room to write nonfiction. 💡
Been trying to sqweak out a book since last year. Went back to the #zerodraft, reorganized, and now onto the next one. #amwriting #nonfiction #essays #writingcommunity

Zero Drafting Hi everyone! I hope you're all well. Today I am going to be exploring the idea of zero drafting! Zeo Drafting Many people believe that if you want to write fiction, you have to start with a complete and detailed outline of the plot and all of your character arcs, while others believe that you should "pants" your way through (pansting refers to the act of writing by the seat of your pants with no plan at all). But there is another method, known as zero drafting, which lies somewhere in the middle.

Zero Drafting - What is Zero Drafting and how can it help you in your writing?

There is something therapeutic about remembering you can write your drafts however you want. I used to write fanfics like this sometimes and it has helped SO much with my drafting process.

A chart showing the progress of a word count with three lines, one for chapter total, one for total written words, and one for predicted total words. The total written words is slowly but surely increasing.

I love me a good chart! Only a tiny word count as of now but it'll soon be increasing just you wait.

⚜️ Word count: 2856

Viscerally resisting the urge to start editing my zero draft in favour of actually just putting words on the page.

There is so much planning for each chapter and how things need to come back later. There s method in this photo somewhere.... I think.

Past the halfway point on this #zerodraft ✨ finding the balance between plotting and pantsing has only taken me like… 20 years. Better late than never! :D

Chapter Eleven outline is done. It's 85 pages of longhand in an A1C notebook and approximately 26,350 words. I'd say I'm halfway done.

The 3rd Preparatory Committee meeting for #FfD4 convenes in New York from 10-14 February.

Countries will discuss the #zerodraft of the outcome agreement, hopefully to address many structural challenges faced by #developing countries.
