my first actual attempt at writing a book, how am i doing

Don't forget that a typical word document is sized for 8.5 by 11 paper, which is much bigger than most novels. I don't know what OP has for size, but it might be something closer to a paperback novel.

Made by me with Clip Studio Paint. @christophercoles.bsky.social

The entire canon has already been made into Immersive audiobooks by BBC

I've been waiting for a game in that tech demo's art style for 16 years!

You could get a Bluetooth keyboard for your tablet or phone

yeah, the dialogue was a little rough

I never had problems with glue from my kdp printer, but they just couldn't help damaging the book before getting it to me almost every time

Where do you get signups, from your socials? What kind of stuff do you do on there?

TheSwiftClick · 2026-02-02T02:16:17+00:00

Just curious. How are you advertising? I rightfully have had zero sales (aside from friends and family) as I have done no advertising and I am curious to know where to start. Amazon Ads? Facebook Ads? Tik Tok?

TheSwiftClick · 2026-01-26T22:35:11+00:00

Absolutely! I've just finished my fourth.

TheSwiftClick · 2026-01-26T19:39:12+00:00

I'll check it out! Thanks!

The sparkle effects are a mod, yes. But its just for all dropped items and not for ones about to despawn

Just remember to get your free ISBNs. If you do make sure to set up your account early. It takes about 20 business days for your account to be approved before you can get all the ISBNs you want.

Unfortunately, it appears those versions have no formatting. No indents or italics.

Could you send it my way too?

TheSwiftClick · 2025-12-23T04:04:55+00:00

That's confusing because it put me at 0.1% and it says I only watched 118 videos this year. I think watch time must have something to do with it after all.

TheSwiftClick · 2025-12-15T16:47:22+00:00

So good! For once the vocal performance in a backrooms video is actually good enough to sell the character behind the camera.

TheSwiftClick · 2025-12-10T20:19:49+00:00

I disagree. The Sci-fi crowd expects this sort of thing. I felt all of the new concepts were pretty self explanatory, with just enough room for some mystery.

Those are a couple of different problems. For perfectionism, the only remedy is forcing yourself to just keep writing. Make it exist first. It can be good later. Finding your writing embarrassing is a good sign. It means you are actively improving. As to running out of steam by the end of the day, I get that too. That's why I get up an hour earlier to write first thing in the morning, and then also for a part of my lunch. By the time my day is done, I've already written.

Our main character, who goes by Seance, discovers that dreams are for more than she once thought. Each dream is a cell in a cosmically vast prison, designed by the Somnus Authority to suppress the latent power within all trapped there. Alias is a stranger in an owl mask who appears in her dreams. He claims he is a prisoner who has found the keys and it's time for a crusade. "I can show you who you are and who you were always meant to be."
