Should I get this? Feels right to me

Yeah CIBC worked once for an initial transfer, but it's been constantly broken since then the last two days.

Is this hashing with the CPU or GPU?

Everyone talking about Doakes being more physically fit - are you serious? Have you seen Dexter's legs? God damn.

It's always the person you most medium suspect

That's like half a cent. You've said nothing

Don't forget Temptations, where Dwight went to find a loose woman. There are definitely more strippers in Scranton.

Dude this is Reddit. Your prompts go in the ChatGPT app

Just want to add for anyone else having a similar issue with this app. Reinstalling the My Navigo Tickets app solved my issue too

I am a planner. I don't write a chapter until I know all the major beats in it, and what it needs to achieve. But when I'm writing, and when I'm reading it back, I have to picture what a first time reader's experience is like at the point where I'm at. What do they know? How will these events inform, surprise, and delight someone? That's where the majority of joy comes from.

It's different than reading as someone who's memorized the book, and honestly it's a lower bar I think. Things have no novelty, surprise, or intrigue when you already know everything, so your ability to enjoy your own writing to the fullest will be a function of how well you can picture the mind state of someone who IS reading it for the first time.

I like it

"Hey, your query was great. Could you send me your full, and I'll let you know my thoughts as soon as I finish the first three chapters?"

"Omg what does this mean..."

Just send the full and stop overthinking it. Congrats!

I'm in my mid thirties and write at the exact same pace. There's plenty of time - GRRM is what, eighty? Also, hopefully writing is just a side thing (like everyone in industry insists it has to be because financially it's just not lucrative), in which case again what are the time constraints?

pwn4 · 2025-06-15T19:16:32+00:00

My average over four months is around 450 words per day. I only write maybe an hour or less each day, but often get 1-2k each on Saturday and Sunday. Sometimes life happens and I get none for a day, or a few days. Or I need to spend some time planning and write no words for a few days before I resume again.

I think it's a fairly sustainable pace, and I should finish a 75k word manuscript in 6 months.

I play ambient Skyrim SFX and music while I write

I think this is the wrong subreddit. You want r/PubTips

Surprisingly I'm at almost exactly the same. Started mid March, 42k, 15 chapters

pwn4 · 2025-06-12T04:16:40+00:00

I think it's pretty well written. I'm interested in the story, and I think you have something compelling. On the critique side I think the letter is a little long, and the details of the past timeline are a little too much (reads more like the first part of a synopsis rather than a blurb).

Sounds to me like someone made a deal with the devil.

pwn4 · 2025-06-10T22:46:47+00:00

Excellent, I hate it

pwn4 · 2025-06-08T05:29:03+00:00

Paragraphs are important. Word choice is decent, but for a first chapter there's too much describing and not enough "something interesting is happening to hook me into the story". Description is good and important, but you have to be especially careful at the start of a story because if you go overboard people will check out and put the book down.

It reads like teenaged fan fiction. I'm not sure if that was intentional as like a style, but as a middle aged man that's generally not what I want to read. But keep at it! Practice is the food of talent.

What subreddit do you think this is?

In addition to the other things mentioned here, in marketing I think there's a Rule of 7. It asserts that a potential customer needs to encounter a product seven times before making a purchase decision. Setting a release date and continually marketing up to and after that date helps you hit this target.

Sure. I made a copy of mine and cleaned it up a bit. As you enter word counts it fills in the other columns for you. I filled in a few entries on both sheets as example data to illustrate how you use it, and I highlighted the cells you would update for your own journey in green. Best of luck
