    Author's urge to Post Too Early

    Sorry to say, but I have no training regime. I don't even really know myself how I have the tolerance to write so much, but I guess just because I find it to be fun, and because I like sticking to a hard schedule. I don't like being wishy washy and saying "Ah well I guess ill write a bit today."...

    Average time to finish a chapter.

    For me personally, and I think this is in part to the fact that I plan a lot out beforehand, I often finish 3k word chapters in about 2-3 hours. I usually have a long term overarching story planned out, and as I write I fill in many of the details, and at other times the details fill in when I...
