Rewrite

Rewrite

I'm doing a major rewrite. The funny thing that I find is that now, when I have way more time on my hands, I've been writing less. It's kind of terrible. Back when I was fourteen, I wrote a book that was 133k words long. It was pretty decent, but the point is that I wrote a lot.

I remember writing eleven pages a day and regardless of word count that's huge compared to what I'm doing these days. I have all the time in the world for writing, but I use it on other things, like movies, practicing, video games, and making references/movie quotes of Tim Burton movies on twitter. Damn those Final Fantasy games, damn them straight to hell.

-Ahem- Back to the point. I need to get back into the swing of things. It's been so long since I've written anything substantial. That's what I'm going to do, not in February, not in March, but when I wake up and am not threatening to fall asleep at the screen.

So, it's time for a rewrite, and rather than doing it the old way where I'd just go through and edit, I'm scrapping the whole story and starting with a blank page. It'll be...fun.
