>Writing a post
Anywhere from one hour to twelve. If I focus, two or three hours max, even if it has fun gimmicks like Kalevala Meter because that exercise keeps me on the page. If I lose focus, it takes much longer, like six hours or even a complete stall, and generally becomes worse. My scatterbrain is easily distracted while I'm at home and I kind of hate it. I should get a laptop or just plain write at the library or somewhere devoid of distractions. Maybe physically write in a journal.
>planning, worldbuilding
This happens passively. These things occupy my mind. In the shower, in the car, anywhere it's silent I start thinking about stories. Different ways I can make a scene unfold, different ways I could have characters reveal things. I prepared and posted almost all of a major part of my last thread, pic related, in a couple of days, but this scene was in my head in some way shape or form since the start of the quest.
>images
If I am deadset on using found images, either I already have them or it will take up to 40 minutes trying to find one before settling on something. If I decide I have to draw it, it can take several hours depending on the scale of the image but I'm preparing it days in advance or relegate it to a weekend post.
