I've been seeing so many authors out there shamelessly giving themselves 5 stars...and today I'm going shamelessly give myself 5 stars. πππ Not because I think my novel is awesome. It's only 10 chapters in and I've barely scratched the tip of the iceberg of the story I want to tell, so no one should claim that it is 'awesome'...at this point of time. But because I have a new-found respect for how authors do this writing thing. Re-reading over and over for spelling and grammatical mistakes, adding in little details where you will only reveal its reason many chapters down the road, making sure that your plot makes sense on the whole, making dialogues and interactions between characters somewhat believable, and the list goes on and on. It's tough. But most of all, it's really tiring. Writing is a consuming and draining activity because you have to be fully immersed in 'the flow' to come up with something half-decent, and then have the courage to post it up in public for anyone with a keyboard to tear down in half a second. I only started this writing journey on impulse 6 days ago, and what a ride it's been so far. I'd never have thought I could complete 10 chapters from scratch in this time frame. 19,000 words and two big eye bags later, I can look back with a tiny sense of accomplishment. I've sacrificed sleep, gym time and even my focus at the workplace to get this out. I don't know how long it will continue but it's been a wild, fulfilling ride so far which I'm not sure if I'm quite ready to climb off yet. That is why I will proudly and shamelessly give myself a 5-star rating. πππ
