Write Every Day, December 11th

[bladespark]

Also known as "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Day!" And not in a good way, as witnessed by the fact that I'm more than five hours later than usual posting this and I just now replied to most of yesterday's check in comments. I am very sorry about that! I could go on at length about why, but I will spare you a blog full of complaint and just say that my work, my toddler, my body, and my brain are all conspiring against me sometimes! My word count, at nearly 10:30pm my time, is 0 and likely to remain that way. Might squeak out an alibi sentence, or might just claim the post. I hate to do that, because I'm trying to get fiction done, not blogging, as my goal, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

Hopefully you've had better days today!

Day 11 - 130 Silmarillion words and some not very coherent thinking about the HLH piece. I’m hoping it will jell soon.

[bladespark]

Good luck with it. I'll admit to being curious about the Silmarillion story. (I've read hardly any, I should probably go looking for more, I'm sure there are some great ones out there!)

[china_shop]

*much hugs* I hope tomorrow is kinder to you! <3

12 Dec: Entered edits to time travel fic #6, read it through again and made a whole nother round of edits, and then POSTEDED! One to go. \o/ (I was going to try to get at least 100 words on it today, but I no longer know if that's gonna happen.)

[bladespark]

Aww, thank you. And congrats on posting, wooo! Finished fic! \o/

[china_shop]

*twirls*

(Also, I meant to say, please don't feel bad for replying to comments the next day! Do whatever works for you! /my 2 cents <3 <3 <3)

[bladespark]

Thank you. :3 I know people probably don't mind. I just like consistency! My not-really-OCD-probably-still-spectrumy self likes predictable and on-time routines, dagnabit, that's why I have so many phone alarms!

[alexseanchai]

canon review and then treasure hunt for the fairy tale that would work best in the story and then forgot mid-hunt what I wanted the fairy tale for

[bladespark]

Whoops? :3 (I actually need to do a review of my own bloody canon, because I have a story it's been so long since I started, I've forgotten half the early chapters.)

Progress is progress, though, even the side-track stuff!

[sakana17]

December 11: 258 words. Nudging into a new scene, finally!

[bladespark]

Huzzah! :3

[bookherd]

Day 11: Still adding some words, despite all the other things going on!

I hope you get a nice calm day to make up for today's intensity. It sounds like yours was several orders of magnitude more chaotic than mine.

[bladespark]

Awesome! And thank you.

[auroracloud]

I managed to scrape together 100 words on the novel with much difficulty and delay, so I think I might give that daily goal a rest for a while, because there are other things I should be working on as well. But anyway, I did write.

Sorry you had a rough day! Hope today is better. :-)

[bladespark]

Thanks. So far it has been. Good luck with your other projects!

[sierranovembr]

I have been back from my trip for a few days, but only just managed to get back to writing with a quick 160 words on the fic.

Hope you are having a better day!

[bladespark]

It's been looking up. Welcome back!

[yasaman]

Day 11: 2,936 words on the Yuletide story but somehow still not done yet?? MAYBE TODAY.

[bladespark]

He he. Good luck getting it finished!

[silveradept]

One December Days post and one post on the Giving of Grief managed, so that's good. (And possibly around 3k? Really?)

[bladespark]

Hey, that's awesome! \o/

[the_siobhan]

670 words on an original piece! Whoot!

[bladespark]

Huzzah! :D

[sylvanwitch]

Claim the blog! Absolutely! We do what we can do. For my part, no apologies are necessary, btw. I know RL gets in the way of commenting, and I appreciate that you are hosting regardless. :-)

On Day 11, I edited and posted the SGA story I wrote earlier in the week. I was home sick, and that was about the energy I had left, so those were my words for the day.

[ysilme]

What she said!

[bladespark]

Thanks! And editing/posting still counts. It's part of the process, after all. :3

[trobadora]

Oops, I didn't get a notification for the previous post, but I did write on the 10th! Not much, but I poked at an exchange fic a bit and did some brainstorming for another.

For the 11th, I only managed an alibi sentence again, but then I was out all evening, so it was to be expected.

[bladespark]

Spiffy. :3 I put you down for both days.

[ysilme]

Boo to whatever gets in your way and drains your energy! And totally claim the blog post; there's no reason why you shouldn't!
My whole creativity got suck up yesterday and today by choir rehearsals (major concert on Sunday ahead) and doing the annual photo calendars for assorted family members. I never manage to make a pre-selection of suitable pics, and browsing through hundreds of pics is more exhaustig then you'd think. I got out 98 words in alibi sentences, but they rather suck. Still, words were written. Also today (11th), a bit over 200 with more to come. Hopefully.

[bladespark]

I wanted to do choir this year, but just didn't have the energy/time. The holidays especially are so busy when you're in music.

Words are words, and it sounds like today is going great!
