From what I've seen, most go with 1k-2.5k chapters, though my favorites go well beyond that quite often. In the end, a good word count is simply what works for you. I'd say just write until you feel you hit a good stopping point, and if you get more/less than usual, that is fine. But I may be...

After nearly 80k words, I still feel like an impostor and that everything will fall apart any instant. So somewhat similar. Most of the comments have been pretty nice, however, which does help. Unfortunately, my brain hates me, so I still think I suck at writing even if others disagree.

My handwriting is so bad that I cannot read it. As you might imagine, this leads to me only taking notes and the like on a computer, since it is useless if you can't read your own writing. At least from my understanding, doctors can understand their own scribbles. I can't read them, so as...

Foxgirls are the only possible choice due to their glorious fluffy tails.

Spent most of my life with long hair, only cut it a while back because it got too hot and I couldn't afford good AC. I find that most of the time, I get compliments on it, especially from women. Sometimes men mistake me for female from behind though and freak out when they pass me and see the...

Skydive into a active volcano without a parachute. Try to kill X predator/soldier while unarmed and unarmored. See what every substance on earth tastes like in both solid and liquid form. Ride a tornado. Similarly, ride a hurricane. Movie stuntman so they can skip having to fake a bunch of...

I don't do any of that fancy stuff, I just write. Once in a while I'll delete a bit that I wrote to rewrite it better, but >90% of the time, I just write the whole chapter straight in one go, then have someone else edit it, and they barely find anything to change. My main challenge is actually...

Very true, I've seen a lot of novels that don't deserve over a two, yet have mostly five star ratings. Likewise, I've seen stories that deserve five stars getting one and two. People seem to rate more on if they like it than on the actual quality, unfortunately.

Technically, the deep ocean is similarly dangerous compared to space, just different hazards. That said, it is far easier to get supplies, and help if anything goes wrong. I highly doubt there will be any fleeing to space anytime soon, however. As mentioned above, there is basically no way...

100% this. I've dropped a bunch of very well written stories because of multiple reasons including just deciding I had too much backlog in it. Don't worry too much about views or anything unless your entire purpose in writing is to try to make money off it. If it is for any other purpose...

Looking at your profile, I don't see that you've had a massive number drop it, only a handful. I wouldn't worry too much unless it continues to increase rapidly for several chapters. Keep in mind some people will just not be interested in the particular story you are telling, but read a ways...

Trust me, that is a good thing. It was horrifically bad, to put it nicely. User is gone too.

I last played factorio, space exploration mod. Automated giant robots spewing nuclear missiles, plus death lasers from space. There is no hope of survival, and the planet is doomed too.

This is something I consider a must. Most people won't notice the fine details of a random bush beside the road, but you might have a botanist who finds the shape of the leaves interesting and stops to look at it. You may have someone who enjoys cloudwatching, and they miss the details around...

I build the world and the starting point of the characters, then I just watch and report what happens. I tried planning, but my characters disagreed with me constantly and I had to give up on my plans.

You forgot a group: people who crack the spines of their books. You gotta just barely open it and tilt the book side to side so you don't damage it.

This makes it sound like there is only one guy making kitsune stories... There are bunches of us! Just not as rapid at releasing new chapters.

Honestly, it is probably best to not care about that and instead focus on simply continuing to write and improve your skill at doing so. I would also recommend going through your work several times for editing purposes, and/or find someone else to help you edit it. The views on your story are...

Congratulations on beating your previous maximum. I ought to keep that sort of thing in mind myself.

If they are biological rather than magical, you want to keep in mind that they are relatively fragile, though with a lot of muscle behind them. You don't want to risk them if at all possible, so your direct combat usage of them should be limited to pummeling the enemy from the sides while you...
