    Writer's Block: Does writing a novel on the side allow you to refresh your mind?

    It helps me, especially when I wrote a very difficult chapter in one novel. To then recalibrate with the other novel helps me very. Very unfortunate if you just went from one difficult chapter and realize the other novel next chapter isn't better...

    Do you write multiple stories?

    I write currently 3 stories at the same time. It actually kind of helps me that I can switch between the stories, writing at the story that suits my mood at that moment. The only bad thing is that I sometimes neglect another story for 1-2 weeks because I have a streak in another story.

    Chapter Lengths

    I most of the time have a length of 1900-2500 words per chapter. But I have chapters too that are around 3000-4000 words, it depends what is happening in the chapter.

    Deleting chapters

    Which do you prefer, first-person POV or third-person POV in fictional narratives?

    I can't with first POV. I don't get into such books. That's why I read and write only in third person POV

    Male protagonists or female protagonists: which one do you prefer?

    I write mostly male main characters. Reading it actually depends on the story. I read both.

    Question regarding; 'hard to stomach' scenes.

    I have a content warning above all my chapters if there could be hard to stomach scenes. But you have the sexual violence tag too. I just like to warn my readers before the chapter too.

    Reading or writing novels: which do you prefer?

    I'm more of a writer then reading. When I was younger I loved to read, but I don't have the time anymore between university, family and then writing to read. I try to read one or two chapters of stories in between my writing, especially when I have chapters in my work that are very draining to...
