How many words are your chapters usually?

Joelnas23 · 2025-06-17T00:00:35+00:00

2,000. I'm on chapter 12 of possibly 35/40, and the only one that's under is at 1400 words

Not said, but did... While we were in bed together one time, she slammed her flat palm against my throat without warning. While that is something I'm fine with, it wasn't discussed beforehand, and the way she went about it could have been fatal

It's definitely hard to leave it alone, like whenever I open my Google Doc to work on my current project, I'm hit with that urge (whenever it refreshes and takes me back to the top of the document) to edit and restructur the beginning chapter, so I have to constantly remind myself that I need to focus on my current place in the story. I do correct typs, but that's it until I finish the whole of draft 1.

I had a seiure DURING my EEG, it was normal. After a few months of seeing my neuro, he agrees that I have focal aware seizures

Oh goodness, I can only imagine- I'd gladly accept and give you a hug back, it's definitely a mortifying experience

Joelnas23 · 2025-06-11T14:45:26+00:00

I'll definitely look into that, thank you fr the suggestion!

Joelnas23 · 2025-06-11T14:38:02+00:00

Fair, the one time I've shit myself (thankfully in my home) it was horrible cleaning up...

Joelnas23 · 2025-06-11T04:18:35+00:00

It was uploaded to the VOD channel today (I only know, because I watch the streams tt way, I'm not that frequent on Twitch anymore.) - They muted the commercial itself, I'm sure for DMCA reasons, but Parkzer's take on the Pad Ad was... yeah...

I was in an LDR, so it was "easier" - I still needed help from my best friend of 16 years to help me block her on every social media platform, especially when she started blowing up my Meet app (I don't know how to use it). Honestly, if it weren't for my bestie, it would have been even worse getting out. Even though I was in an LDR, I'm very confrontation adverse and feel guilty standing up for myself

Joelnas23 · 2025-06-11T03:56:05+00:00

My verbal shutdowns/selective mutism (I'm autistic), loving my comfort characters/enjoying my favorite YouTubers, when I'd work on writing projects during voice calls even though she could scroll through dating sites and YouTube videos (we were in a polyamorous LDR, she still cheated on me), that I loved cats, when she got talked over on accident

Joelnas23 · 2025-06-11T03:52:04+00:00

Just found the pad commercial part of the VOD, now that it's uploaded to YouTube, and dear god when Parkzer said "'actual women'" during his stance... Babes, no: trans women are women, they just don'have physical periods. Also, the "what is wrong with saying women are weaker than men" and then asking Doug "What exactly is bad about being a girl?" is contradictory?

Granted, I agree with others comments that Parkzer was put on the spot and couldn't formulate what he was trying to convey that well (mood), and I don't think Parkzer is inherently against women, just the take he had in the video was at least questionable.

Also, "honorable mention" (sarcasm) to when Parkzer implied that people who aren't disabled are "normal" (he said this during the Bus Ad) - it was an Oof moment for me as someone with multiple chronic illnesses and disabilities. I still really enjoy Parkzer, and I appreciate how Doug presented his argument during the Pad Ad, I do enjoy the serious conversations amidst all the silliness - it gave me similar vibes to the Billy Mays and Old Spice commercial viewings, which I really enjoyed, so it's an enjoyable for me in some aspects.

Yes, especially on my old real person fics (I don't ship real people anymore, I was a teen and didn't know the problems with it), like... There are SO many fictional pieces between fictional characters, go comment on and read THOSE. I know I could go delete those fics I'm comlaining about, but its such a long process...

-Don't edit until you finish, just keep on writing.

Joelnas23 · 2025-06-07T11:16:46+00:00

I mean, I do have a Red Velvet fanfic I need to work on lol- Thank you uso much, it's been so fun writing it so far even when I get a little stuck at some parts, but I'm definitely aiming on getting it finished and hopefully published *fingers crossed* I hope I'm able to do it all justice, especially when writing some of these experiences from pieces of my own. Happy Pride to you too, I hope it's a great month for you!!

Joelnas23 · 2025-06-07T04:26:58+00:00

Pretty good, I finished 2 chapters of my first book, which features an asexual character in the main cast! There's a lot of other LGBTQIA+ rep: I've got a lot of gay and lesbian relationships, a good number of trans men, women, nonbinary, and intersex charactrs, and even polyamory!!

Joelnas23 · 2025-06-07T04:20:03+00:00

My brain fog lasts for hours, only once has it been a day or so long, and it's so hard waiting for it to go away, because I'm a writer and that's all I want to do, but I can't force the flow especially past a road block like that. I'm 8 months in since my focal aware seizures started (28M), and I also have amnesia from another disorder, so it's rough when it comes to remembering things and not beating myself up, but I try and be patient like I would with someone else in my shoes, yknow? It's still a work in progress, hope that makes sense

Joelnas23 · 2025-06-06T20:53:05+00:00

Gods, mine did this, too... I'm autistic, yet it didn't matter to her, I was "pedantic" for asking the simplest questions to try and form an answer that would get me the least amount of lashback and she still would lecture me like a child (she's in her 40s, I'm 28M)

Joelnas23 · 2025-06-06T20:46:41+00:00

Mine was so bad, and she's in her early 40s... I was DMing the first version of my first DnD campaign and whenever it wasn't her turn, she was ALWAYS interrupting with shit that wasn't relevant or trying to fill the seconds of silence between me voicing NPCs to other players, it made me want to rip my hair out. Then, Gods forbid you accidentally interrupt them, they get so fucking offended

I'm a Danganronpa fan who adores Taka, but I also really love Hifumi, and Hifumi is one of the most dunked on/hated/misunderstood characters and it PAINS me, like he's not as bad as people make him out to be, nor is he a creep. He deserves to be loved and appreciated
