Accomplishments.

Alright. This one is going to be an interesting update to explain. I'm aware that my statistics aren't the greatest in this one, but there's a reason for that: I've hit a writing slump. One of my least favourite sentences to admit, but unfortunately, it's true. The good news? I've switched gears and begun editing [A]'s route to maintain productivity. And it's been going really well (more on that later)!

When it comes to the writing slump, though, it's been a combination of things. One, I made the mistake of not outlining N's and K's routes, which was difficult because while I made decent progress writing both without any structure, when I got stuck, I didn't know where to go. I got halfway through writing a fight scene in K's route (yes, you read that right) and then stopped because I didn't know how to reroute things back to where I wanted the branch to go. And then with N, I stopped at the beginning of their route because I didn't want to make the same mistake with K. It doesn't help that for a week, whenever I opened my Word document, I'd get frustrated and leave the app without typing a single word. 

So yeah. Great month for me.

I recently started editing [A]'s route, though, and wow, that's been going so much better for me. I was actually a little scared going into it because after writing Rylan's route (which, at the time, I considered the best route of the three I'd written), I thought [A]'s might not be up to par. Safe to say that it is. I adore [A]'s branch so much, maybe even more now than when I initially wrote it. It's sweet and sentimental and exactly the type of fluff (with some angst because who else would I be if there wasn't a little bit?) that I think you'll all love.

 For the month of December, the goal is to finish editing and coding [A]'s route. With that finished, I'll have 2/5 routes officially done, which puts me closer to my completion goal in February. I also want to get back to writing N's and K's routes (after I outline them this time), which I'll do after I finish this school semester. For anyone else in college/university right now, good luck with any upcoming assignments or exams! They've been killing me right now, but we're nearly there!

I know it was a pretty uneventful update, but I hope it was an interesting read nonetheless! I hope you all have a wonderful rest of the year <3
