Welcome to #FastDraftFeb
🥃The project: SUNSHINE ON LEITH, an adult speculative romcom (heavy on the com)
☀️The vibes: sunshine x grump, bi4bi, fake dating, magic as an allegory for mental illness, only one bed, OCD rep
💛The goal: a completed first draft before the end of March
Thanks for all the love on my pitches yesterday everyone! It's made me incredibly motivated to get back to drafting this month! 💛
Questpit has got me absolutely BUZZING to start writing tomorrow ✨
#FastDraftFeb starts tomorrowwww! ✨
I'm so excited to get back to drafting, hang out with my anxious and chaotic disaster darlings and get their story down on the page to query later this year!! 💛
The temptation to pitch one of my other ideas in questpit is soooo strong but no! I must stay focused! Max and Carrie deserve their moment in the spotlight! ✨

Gonna start #FastDraftFeb (my wee personal accountability challenge for one of the shorter and less social-event-filled months of the year for me) this weekend, which means I should probably get some new graphics ready to share... ✨
Wait we're #questpit-ing this week?
HELLO what an excellent time I chose to remember this app exists
I'm gearing up to do #FastDraftFeb again next month as I found it a really fun way of holding myself accountable to write regularly while also keeping the zero draft, it doesn't have to be perfect mentality - anyone want to join me?
Hit me with your best fake dating romance recs - for future-editing research, I'm embracing the chaos for now but I need to know if I'm pulling this trope off 😅
ACCOUNTABILITY THREAD for #50kBeforeTheEnd
At the start of Nov my first draft was sitting at 24k words - goal is to get to 75k+ before the end of 2025!
TITLE: Sunshine on Leith
GENRE: Adult romcom with a dash of magic ✨
TROPES & THEMES: grump/sunshine, fake dating, OCD rep
Crossposting here from the 🦋, so far the themes have very much been "trust the process" and "omg how do I make them stop flirting so I can end this scene already"
the agony of listening to a writing craft podcast and realising your last project hit every! single! one! of the points they are making soooo well, and your current messy first draft really doesn't...
Well, not yet, at least 💛✨
ok apparently my secret goal for this book is to write me/my partner/my Edinburgh-based friends into as many subtle background cameos as possible 😂 we're at three so far!
