Have you conditioned yourself in writing?

[MakBow]

Tell me if y'all groomed conditioned yourselves in writing.
(yes, I know the word is rather infamous for its other uses, but it's not only for THAT)

I physically cannot post a chapter unless its 2000 words, MINIMUM, all because when I first started writing (Started on Web novel) and wrote my first novel (Which freaking sucks and I want to delete it off the face of the Earth, but I don't to use as a refence point), reading that you needed 1600 minimum for a contract, I made sure it was always 1600 words or higher for every novel I wrote until I then decided to switch up on Royal Road, writing Level Up, my other novel not finished, that had less than 1000 words usually a chapter, but then I came here, now with Cursed Hand: With Simple Curses, I Annihilated Everything | Scribble Hub (Shameless plug, freak you), in which I'm back at sticking with 2000 words minimum.

No one uses it for that context. It's either used for the hygiene aspect or the sexual one.
I can't say I'm too surprised from someone that uses the term loli and posted a link about lolicon to defend their choices.

I don't give FUUUU, how other people use it.
And about the lolicon, I don't know if you are trying to start a problem, but just stop, its childish and dumb. I made it clear what I meant and here you are trying to start something.
People use the term Loli all the time for various reasons.

Just stop.

Very cool. I'd recommend avoiding the use of controversial words casually.
No one is absolved from criticism, especially when it comes to seemingly intentional ambiguity.
Good luck with your writing~

Usually the second word you used, conditioning, is employed for this purpose, especially when self-training. It is a valid use of the word, but also a loaded one that can stir up a hornet's nest.

Interesting word choice… I thought I was hallucinating from sleep deprivation. ?️?️

Anyways, I definitely condition myself into writing. I don’t have a set word count for each chapter, just events. Kind of treating it like a drama or movie where the scene cut off at a good time. Actually my problem usually comes from writing too many words ??

I know that is true, but usually when I think of the word, its either grooming dogs or conditioning. I never think the child grooming first, EVER.

it's also called Click-Bait

The loli in me loves it now. Took a while but the grooming worked. She's still a bratty writer that needs some extracurricular guidance on occassion.
