RE: "The Many Torments of Tiny Earl (Chapter 25, part 2)" a #freewritemadness / NaNoWriMo tale
Thank you.
It has been such a pleasure to read your work. I have had stretches of days at a time when I haven't been on steemit, though the Tiny catch up binge reads have been most enjoyable.
You know you are on to something great when you wonder about the character, not from a story telling perspective, but when you start to feel like there is a story already there just waiting to be told. The characters familiar in their development that the reader believes that you the writer know them, and know exactly where they are heading, the reader waits for you to divulge this knowledge with them.
I don't know how much you already have planned out or how much you leave to the impulse of the day. I am interested to know a little about your process in that regard. Either way I look forward to reading more.
Congratulations, not just on achieving your word count goal but doing a superb job.
Thank you for being a crucial part of my NaNoWriMo journey!
I plan very little, which can cause me some problems. Usually I have a rough idea of where I'm heading but often that can change midway through a chapter, and sometimes the prompts are crucial to that change (and sometimes they are a bit of an afterthought!). I have a rough idea of what is happening, but the characters sort of write the story... And sometimes it changes. I'm glad it seems like there is a planned back story there. :)

...crucial part, is perhaps not warranted, but I have enjoyed being a part of it in any capacity and relish the inclusion. I do harbour ideas of writing, you have definitely become crucial part of keeping my own dream circulating in my head. You have set the steemit writing bar very high.
The picture prompts have been a beautiful addition too.
Working that rose into the visions of poor Glenn at his most vulnerable moments, then back in with the planning of his mothers funeral with a hint of mummy issues was fun.
It may not have happened I suppose without the random prompts. It is so interesting to see how people interpret prompts differently. I wish I had time to read everyone's. I will in time. You were my first, I will maintain my fandom as I do catch up on @improv's story at the moment.
Thank you, your thoughtful comments really helped me! Yes, the joy of writing is we all interpret things differently, so our stories will never be identical.
