@megturney @RavenSoftware @PlayApex has also removed duos and it's just as stupid a decision.

[Alex Griffiths @theaoli]

@PossibeeABee @PlayApex Yeah this is a massive L for me and my teammate. We also won't be playing for 6 weeks

[Alex Griffiths @theaoli]

So it's that #nanowrimo day 1 time again. Manuscript open, coffee in my @WorldAnvil mug sitting beside me, cat fed, soundtrack chosen, and it's pouring with rain outside. Let's do this!

[Alex Griffiths @theaoli]

Finally got round to reading the novella I wrote at the start of 2020 when lockdown hit. Let's just say I have improved a hell of a lot since then. It has some good points and is worth a rewrite but dear lord I had no grasp of sentence structure and flow back then.

Getting a new boiler and heating system installed today so I'm camped out in my bedroom with no proper pc access. Using the time to finally get around to editing my short stories for eventual submission, hopefully soon. #amwriting #amediting

I loved seeing how the Ancestral Spirit fight affected @day9tv. Makes me feel vindicated to how choked up and emotional that entire sequence made me. So beautiful #ELDENRING

[Alex Griffiths @theaoli]

So today marks the end of my first year subbed to @WorldAnvil and I sat down to decide if it was worth subbing for another year. This sit down lasted only seconds because World Anvil is amazing and it's helped my writing 100 times over. #LightUpTheForge

[Alex Griffiths @theaoli]

Last @WorldAnvil #WorldEmber article for today is my first Knightly Order, but with a corrupted twist. These guys show up in a few of the short stories I wrote in November for #nanowrimo https://t.co/Jxxul57IeH

[Alex Griffiths @theaoli]

Next article for @WorldAnvil #WorldEmber is the explanation and description on how to craft spells using magical energy. https://t.co/QD6IxRxjY0

[Alex Griffiths @theaoli]

Going to link my first few articles for @WorldAnvil #WorldEmber. To begin with we have the start of my magical laws. They are coming along nicely. I'm sure I will have changes soon enough. https://t.co/JRFQXHKIvW

[Alex Griffiths @theaoli]

Ok finally got some #WorldEmber work done on @WorldAnvil after 19 days of NaNoWriMo burn out. Over a 1000 words on my world's magical laws with plenty of places to link off into new articles. Still more to write on that article, I think, before I link it.

[Alex Griffiths @theaoli]

@750words Thanks for all your hard work, would love a V2 invite.

[Alex Griffiths @theaoli]

2992 words today for a grand total of 50494 words this month. This marks my second #NaNoWriMo success in a row! I think this year was easier, but the last week was tough as hell. I'm excited about a break. #amwriting #nanowrimo2021

[Alex Griffiths @theaoli]

My #nanowrimo2021 total is currently 47502. Wrote 2679 words today and need to do 2500 tomorrow. Totally cutting it close, as always. I am excited to take a break for a month, that's for damn sure. #amwriting

[Alex Griffiths @theaoli]

My heating is currently dead and I've been sitting all day waiting for the gasman to come fix it. Turns out it's really difficult to write when you're freezing...

[Alex Griffiths @theaoli]

Did 3471 words today for #nanowrimo2021 and brought my total up to about 42k. 8k left and 4 days to do it. I got this! #amwriting

[Alex Griffiths @theaoli]

Although saying that I am excited for next month where I wont be writing any short fiction at all. I will be focusing on world building exclusively. #WorldEmber is coming!

[Alex Griffiths @theaoli]

1695 words done on #nanowrimo2021 today. Finished short story 9 and started story 10. Passed the 35k total mark and I'm feeling good about the final 15k I think. I hope it keeps going as it is currently. Maybe 4 more short stories and I'm there. #amwriting
