(I SHOULDN'T be writing longer stories with that same thing, but I do anyway).

Ahaha! So true.

Yeah, yeah. The first question I was just curious about, but the second one I'm actually working on right now. I wrote something without any real care about how long it was and the first draft was 10000. I rewrote it like, three times and now it's around 7500 and I'm planning on submitting it to a short story contest but while I was writing I was like "man, I could totally see this being a YA novel or something..."

So yeah. Thanks! :D

I usually just go back and correct typos or rewrite certain parts. However, sometimes that's not enough, and I end up trashing it and starting from scratch, but I really hate doing that.I try to write a good first draft to start with, so I don't have to rewrite that much ( ... )
