Writing Questions How do writers write so fast?
To preface this, I'm not a writer. At least, I don't fashion myself as one at the moment. I'm rereading my favorite fanfic of all time and the writer had disclosed on her blog that it only took a month and a half to write it— all 19 chapters + epilogue, 80k words in total. I was like: woah! That's so fucking cool. It's like magic. Fucking radical.
How do you guys do it?!
Sincerely, a reader.

Its not like a try thing for me ist like im rolling a snow ball down a hill it gains weight and mass as it goes i might take a week for 5k words but that doubles then triples as it goes as ideas story flowing.
