          Also, this is a good video I think. It advises make your first few stories short ones, and after you finish a work, leave it be. Only go back to edit after you get notes from others.

          A very good piece of advice I heard. Figured I’d share it here!

Not really a new years resolution but more of a life resolution, I’m aiming to try and make a full novel every year, as well as 3-4 short stories. Since 2020 I’ve been able to do a novel a year, so I think this is doable. 
          I think going about it this way gives me enough time to make sure each project has good quality, but not so much time that I procrastinate or get stuck on the same project forever. 
          Everything would still get a good round of edits after the first draft of course, but I won’t be stuck editing the same story for too long either, which I think is a trap a lot of us fall into. 
          
          Just thought I’d share. Does anyone else have any self imposed writerly challenges like this as well?

          This is a link to a video by Masahiro Sakurai. While he directs the video towards a more businessy project setting, I think it applies very well to writing. 
          It basically says, keep whatever project you have under wraps until it’s finished. Because the moment you share it, you can lose a certain driving force to keep going. Instead, build up momentum on your own. 
          Watch the video and lemme know what you think!
