So there were already a couple of instances of people asking about editing, and at first in theory since it's not new words I didn't think to count it... But since it is after all still a big part of the writing process maybe we can have it count somehow.

I was thinking that maybe we could have it still count towards the "Progress" counter (because you still did something), but not anything else (so it would break your Day streak if you did only editing without adding a new word?). So if someone is stuck editing their writing it still counts a little bit.

Maybe? If someone else has any ideas let me know!
Okay so! I have now finished editing my fic, and I will say that knowing that the streak counter didn't matter for me any more probably contributed to me going some days without editing at all where I might not have otherwise. I personally feel like editing-only days ought to still count for streak, too, since they're still working on the fic and keeping up that momentum. It especially feels somewhat arbitrary that currently an editing day could count for streak, but only if it happens to be additive editing, when subtractive editing is just as worthwhile and perhaps about equally likely to happen. (Mine was pretty much all subtractive editing, I think.)


Well, anyway, my little guy was last seen at 2/4 on the progress bar, and though I didn't count exactly, I definitely had at least six days of editing (but not ten or more). So I'll give him +2 more levels, +5 for the event bonus that I never got around to adding until now, evolve him into Hydrapple now that the fic's finally finished and posted (hooray!), and leave him there. :veelove:

Thanks a lot for this thread, it really helped motivate me to get my fic finished sooner rather than later! ❤️

Can't wait to join in on an event, so as fun as my long-time favorite ghost types having healthcare or writing about a mega gengar who's in need of healthcare is very divisive for me {hehehehe}. This seems like a fun way to stay consistent, having a little guy :D
