You read the title. I wanna hear what goes through the heads of most writers on here when they are writing a new story.
Whats the part of writing a novel you MOST and LEAST look forward to?
Most: Looking forward to new comments discussing the novel. Sometimes I get down when there are negative comments, but I still look forward to it. Especially if I know future chapters will resolve their concerns.
Least: Probably starting new chapters. Once I get in the flow, then it's fine. However, I almost always need to force myself into the initial flow. Waiting for 'motivation' doesn't work. Just gotta sit down and do it. I've found I write best in the mornings because my brain is too tired to protest not getting to work, lol. If I try to write at night then my brain usually resists and wants various distractions because it's night and night isn't work time, it's fun time.
Most : Writing freely.
Least : Fixing the grammar...so many freaking rules!

lol well said. same here.
negative reactions makes me sad honestly
Most: comments. It either bad or good i wanted to know my readers thoughts about every chapter.
Least: hmm. Maybe starting and ending a chapter. Lol
I am an extremely slow writer, i have two unpublished novels rotting in my harddrive for years now and i have been writing my "magnum opus" for over 4 years now and i'm not even done with my world building phase, let alone a first draft. Just take your time and write what you want to write, if you want to be paid for it then it must be something that people want to read or it won't pay well. Assuming of course you have no education in this field then your best course of action is practice. Just write and see how it goes.
Worst is... no comments.
Best is... powerstones :love_letter:
Most: Creating a new world and characters.
Least: The hours I spend editing because it stops me from writing.
Most: when building an idea in my mind
Least: actually writing the idea down
Most: when reading, what I wrote in the past and thinking about the idea it represents
Most: Planing, writing, editing and seeing people comment (love seeing people interact with the story)
Least: Writing (sometimes it's hard to start and I feel I might get stuck), not seeing interaction (makes me wonder if the story is bad.)
BabyTanuki I am the same but I can't write because I write bad in Spanish my language , in English ( oh well they going to kill me XD )

Most: reviews and comments
Least : starting a new chapter
Most: Coming up with the idea
Least: Actually writing it oof.
Most: When I come up with the idea, and when I write an exciting scene I have been planning for ages. It literally just spills from my fingers.
Least: Setting the circumstances so the exciting scene can occur.
