Well, I have 2 things on my Figment account here; "I don't have a title" is the longest I've ever done (the thing in its entirety isn't there, only 2-ish chapters), but "500" is somewhat better. I'm not really happy with either though.

Speaking plainly, "I don't have a title" is great! I read the first part, and I thought it was pretty good! Just need a good title.  big_smile

And the same goes for "500". I don't really know what to say. It's great.  big_smile   big_smile

Really? Thank you  smile  Is there anywhere I can read something by you?
To your question, it's 'Miss Nesbit the Detective', but it's super random

You're welcome.  smile

Uh ... no.  sad  I haven't posted much online, although there is an outdated version on the Scratch forums (topic closed). If you're interested, click here. Like I said, though, it's seriously outdated.

Random? I like random! I like cookies.

Re: Books

I have a paragraph of what I intended to be a book done.
And I'm still not happy with the paragraph.

It will if you edit later, when you've finished a rough draft. Finish now, agonize later

"Finish now"
yeah, I'll be back in a week with a finished product.
No big deal!

I obviously meant that you should, at the moment, focus on getting a rough draft done

Thanks ... I think I don't really feel like posting the manuscript online.  wink  I kinda want people to buy the book after it's self-published.

Just write like crazy. Get all your ideas down. Then revise. (This is probably easier done on a computer, as it would be easier to change things.)
