Let's look at it this way... I can't write anything as terrible as Josh Trank's Fantastic Four.

Which part of 'actually finishing any sort of written piece is better than never finishing one at all' don't you get.

You've been on the Farms for so many months, what writing do you have to show for it?

Connor, what do you think of Trump for president?

I'd take him over any of the other candidates any day of the week. At least he's brutally honest.

My current word total on Alphaboy, based on my progress the past couple of days, is 1,662. Tomorrow, I'll post an updated word count. I'm aiming for 90,000 words.

You are not going to go from not-even 2k to 90k, especially in a single day. How autistic are you?

Checking, if he were up for an entire 24 hours, and wrote 61.3 words a minute, he'd reach 90k.

I really don't think it's possible in this case.

Edit: looking at the updated post giving him 2 weeks, that's a rate of a much more managable 4 words a minute.

Now obviously this is a stupid number, but it doesn't account for things like sleep, eating, masturbating - the rate would need to be higher. It's at least humanly possible.
 
Connor, seriously. I would like to give you some tips here. Your book will suck, but it might be a learning experience if you let it be. I think you are capable of plenty and with time, you won't be such a lolcow. You'll always be a bit of a lolcow, but you will learn how to hide it much better. That said, what I think you need to do is design the structure for your project before just diving in. Do you know your destination? How will you get there? What devices will be most useful in supporting the saliency of your story. I think these are things that you need to consider in order for you to be more efficient and effective. You need to have "checkpoints" to borrow terminology you are more familiar with. Set up a point in time when a section of your work should be done. Have a rubric that you can apply to measure your performance. You can do this Connor, it will take time, but you will produce a sub-par book eventually.

No one will want to read it, probably not even the next one, but this is common for writers. You might be able to get a couple people to thumb through a few books and if you can get someone to read any cover-to-cover (other than for the purpose of laughing at you), it will be a great accomplishment. This isn't meant to be an insult, but people with YEARS of training on writing, who have studied literature and who are truly brilliant minds will write many books and never be published.If you love writing though, this is what you accept going in. No one will care about your labor, and those who do will look at it as an opportunity to laugh at you. So if writing and completing your book is truly important and not a fleet of fancy, be prepared.
