Writing Question

Am I writing too many books at once?

I'm sort of writing *coughs* four books at once...well, two are still being planned...but still!
I work on one for a while, work on another, and so on. Am i working too hard?

It's only wrong when you start to mix up the stories. I myself write numerous books at once but keep notes to remind myself of the one I'm on, unless the story lines completely differ from the others, like ones with fantasy and realistic fiction. But, no you're not crazy; you're enthusiastic and eccentric, and that's what's necessary to write anything of the least interest, otherwise the book would end up boring, simple and generic. If you ever need advice on writing, I'm here to help.

yes!!!! ur crazy!! just relax. get one story out at a time. if you work ur ass off, u might get tired and stop. or u might get confused about wich 1 ur writin at the moment. once u finish 1 story, u start the other. keep wat u've already done but come back 2 it. if u writie more than 2 books at a time, u might not realize that the books have the same storiline. if u do them after each other, u can start with a new mind and a fresh imagination!! hope it helpzzzzzz!!

Well if you are working too hard then so am i. Im writting 7 stories at the moment, so dont worry about it - as long as you can keep them seperated in ur mind and not think u wrote something in one that you didn't then you should be all good.

yeh. right one book at a time, and write your ideas down i a notebook or sumthing so you dont forget them, if you write them all at once its like whooo what am i doing?
so just calm down, and right down your ideas and come back to them once you finished the one your writing.
it helped me anyway coz i kept getting loads of ideas llooll it was funnny tho :D

i don't think there's anythiong wrong with so long as your coping. if you can remember and write about more than one storyline at a time then why not? just remember that you don't have to write them all at once, you can keep notes of new ideas. by the way, how do you find the time to write so many books at once?

i know what you mean. i love making things up - people, places, stories - in my head but they never make it onto paper. they just kinda stay there, in my brain. i don't have a lot of free time. my lovely teachers have been giving me tons of homework lately >:( but we get to write a story in english :) so im good.

11 books now? I bet now you've started writing like 17 books. That's not a lot. It isn't! I'm like writing a bunch of books! If you are posting them online, keep your readers entertained with new books and it'll all work out! Okay if you start failing school, then yeah it's starting to become a lot. Write ideas in a notebook or post short chapters! Then you won't over-work (o.O)

One of my favourite authors said in an interview that every story you want to write deserves all the ambition, concentration and ideas you can bring up; so don't write many books at once. I also often started different stories at the same time until I saw this interview on Youtube and thought about her words. Since then, I always force myself to keep on one story and it really IS better, believe me. Of course, I take notes whenever I have a new idea or I write short stories, poems, song texts etc., but in general, I concentrate on one story now.
