Boop boop boop!

I finally read a book by my favorite author Rachel Aaron, called 2k to 10k, which is all about her storytelling methods and writing methods and how that got her to up to like a 10k per day word count, and holy crap this book changed my life a little bit. I'm now using her methods to get this story in gear and all of a sudden it's fun again! I mean, it was fun before, but it was also like a lot of work because I was thinking too hard about too many things -- everything became too symbolic and not relatable enough and it made writing the story very hard. But now things are chugging along. :3I don't have much to share right now but:If you lurk around tumblr, I have an inspiration blog for this comic where I keep all the rebloggy things that strike a chord in me. You can follow that here: http;//mahoushoujoref.tumblr.comI'm also starting to curate a playlist, which you can listen to here: http://grooveshark.com/playlist/01+Magical+Girls/104181045I'm still hung up about a name for this project, but I'm sure it'll come in time. I'm mostly just excited about how much more *human* and *relatable* the characters are getting. Yay!In the meantime, I've been wrestling with wanting to share written things but since everything is in the simplistic word barf stage basically anything I shared would be majorly spoilery and I don't want to take all the discovery and joy out of it. >8Ta Decisions and dilemmas.Anyway, hopefully when I'm not sick anymore next week I'll be able to sit down and scan a whole bunch of stuff cause I've got a bunch of concept art down on paper but scanning is the butts.

Boop boop boop!

TECHNICALLY that's the second half of the book, haha. It's really mostly about how to get started and do so in a way that all the hard stuff is out of the way first so you can just write write write. It's a neat book. :3

Is there a book that explains how to get from 0 to 2k? :)
