#should i ever manage to finish this story it's gonna be some epic fantasy novel

[transmascsnearyou]

just started editing something I wrote when I was 16...

started with about 2400 words in just one chapter i'm not even halfway through and i'm already down to 1600 words

i used so many useless words that just make the story harder to read like i described that one guy with 15 different words just listed

something like 'he had dark hair, glistening in the sun with their softness and eyes like waterfalls in their deep sadness and skin so bright that you couldn't look at him for too long'

but with 5 more sentences describing how perfect he looked and now that i'm editing this he's becoming a wet rat of a woman

editing my own work is exhausting

#writing is exhausting and i can't come up with anything new #so i'm just recycling my old stuff and making it into something i might actually like #should i ever manage to finish this story it's gonna be some epic fantasy novel #but i wouldn't mind letting it stay in my drafts and just tinkering on it whenever i feel like it xd
