PandaRen22 I use WhatsApp and Inkstone directly because most of my writing is on my phone...
How do you squeeze your time reading you favorite webnovel while writing?
I only read what in my library
It's not reading novel here that take my writing time but watching drama
Currently watching an interesting drama which I want to make the fanfic for that drama
PandaRen22 You don't. I have a part-time job and barely have time to write enough.
PandaRen22 You just need to learn how to read and write fast enough.
because ctrl+c, ctrl+v :) , but who admits?
it's because we author have 48h a day.... jk... it was like reading when i'm stuck when i write (which happens often) and return to write after reading a couple (50+) chapters ;) i am a serious author who likes to procrastinate by reading and lazing around~

My life~ what drama are u watching if u don't mind me asking? Hopefully it's the same one I'm watching~
PandaRen22 I can't. Sob. I only follow few novels now. That was only once a week reading. I had too many stockpile that tempted this Rabbink to take a break.
SweetsTomato Same. However, the drama gave a plot idea for this Rabbink.
Lotuspalm I'm currently watching 3 dramas, The King's woman, Lost love in time and the other one that i want to write the fanfic because I'm so disappointed with the end. If you know this opening song, maybe we watch the same drama :)
鋪陳紙筆 情字裡寫滿你
pūchén zhǐ bǐ qíng zì lǐ xiě mǎn nǐ
Taking a brush and a paper out, write a letter which are full of loving words about you
花開十里 翩翩為你
huā kāi shílǐ piānpiān wèi nǐ
Flowers bloom for ten miles, dancing gently because of you
彈撥琴曲 如同身後站著你
tánbō qínqǔ rútóng shēnhòu zhànzhe nǐ
While I pluck the music notes with zither, I feel as if you are standing behind me.
落雨一地 癡癡等你
luò yǔ yī dì chī chī děng nǐ
When the rain is pouring down, I am foolishly waiting for you
It's my own translation on lyrics, so maybe not so accurate :P

Hi! I still keep stories in my library while updating 1-2 chapters a day on my novel, with 3-5 chapter releases when my readers made me happy, i.e. ranking goes up a certain spot. The thing is, I read really fast, so it does not take that much time, especially if updated chapters have less than 500 words. As for my novel, it takes me 30-45 minutes to write a regular chapter (600-800 words) and about and hour for longer chapters (900-1300 words).
When I am busy with work and other stuff, there will be a delay on the release of the next chapter, but I always see to it that the interval between releases will not exceed 3 days.
Just find inspirations for your chapter, e.g. places you've been or have been wanting to visit. This will help make your descriptions more vivid and your thought flow smoother.
Good luck!
SweetsTomato any other good dramas recently?
Ierrech how about this?

SnowOnSummer WHOA!

SweetsTomato both are great!

When I used to write I just pushed updates aside, just keeping track of them as I dive into writing. Then when I get tired of writing and want a break I binge everything I missed, along with manga and anime. It helps to inspire imagination in my opinion. Once I went 3 weeks just on writing before taking a week off to rest.
Ierrech for modern time : my story for you, written by tangjia shansao (heavenly jewel change)
Ancient time : rise of phoenixes
Both released this year (June and August)
SweetsTomato thank you!!! Gonna go and watch!!!
