Write Every Day, December 12th

[bladespark]

Certain stresses were officially removed today, so things are looking up for me! Haven't written yet, been out doing all the million little things, shipping, getting the cat's pills, etc. But I expect to at least bang out a few words this evening.

Thanks for everybody being so nice yesterday. This is a pretty great group of people! And you all rock with the writing!

Speaking of which, how's your writing going today?

[sylvanwitch]

Aw, right back at ya, hon, re: rocking! :-) I'm glad the stress has eased up for you, too.

I wrote 307 words on a Bond/Q meet-cute that isn't at all my usual fare. This prompt bingo thing has helped a great deal. I can totally see why people like them so much! (It's my first time trying it.)

[bladespark]

That sounds like fun! I was doing a trans bingo thing, but I've had so much else going on I haven't been working on it.

[nafs]

I always applaud the alleviation of stress, and getting a bunch of little errands done is also excellent.

525 new words today, in a brand new notebook. I bought two and a pack of index cards at Staples after work. This means I have 400 blank pages to work with, which when I think about having to come up with words to fill them all, seems like A Mistake. But I didn't let it put me off. I have fallen back on the use of timers as a tool, so 30 minutes of hunting through the previous notebook to find and type up anything I'd missed, a pause to figure out what exactly I was planning to work on, and then 30 minutes to write some of that.

[bladespark]

That sounds like a sensible method! :3

[sierranovembr]

Alibi sentence for me! Hoping for more free time tomorrow. Glad you are having a better time of it today. :D

[bladespark]

Thanks! And hey, the words all add up! :3

[cornerofmadness]

I got 953 words yesterday.

Today I got 1180 words on my spicy advent story + 1740 words on Come Undone and all this in spite of my car battery dying and leaving me stranded. Who knew I could write in bars so well?

[bladespark]

That's a heck of a lot of words! Congrats!

[cornerofmadness]

thanks. it sure was

[sanguinity]

Dec. 12: alibi sentence, and even that was phoned in.

It'll be better once I've settled into the new job, right? Because right now I can't scrape together two thoughts about any of my stories, let alone the time to write.

[bookherd]

It will be! New jobs take up sooo much brainspace.

[bladespark]

Any kind of change just sucks up the extra brainpower. But congrats on soldiering on.

[yasaman]

Day 12: 2,560 words for a finished draft of my Yuletide fic! \o/

[bladespark]

Woooo! That's awesome! \o/

[silveradept]

I had a lot to say on today's December Days post, apparently. But I got it done all the same.

[bladespark]

I saw! You find lots of interesting things to say. :3

[lferion]

Day 12 - 200 words, mostly Silmarillion, a sentence of HLH.

[bladespark]

That's great. :3

[alexseanchai]

alibi sentence

[bladespark]

The words all add up. :3

[bookherd]

Day 12: Another handful of words flung haphazardly at the screen! There's just gonna be a whole lot of that this month, I fear.

[bladespark]

Yeah, I hear you. Still, they do add up!

[auroracloud]

I wrote down ideas for the ambush project, and a handful of sentences for a short story. :-)

[bladespark]

Awesome! Hope you got some good ideas out.

[auroracloud]

Yes! The things I'd written down helped me write a few hundred words on it the next day! It was fun!

[the_siobhan]

About 260 words last night. Finished the scene and I have something of an idea what happens next.

(As so often happens with my projects I know the start and the end, but no clue how to get from point A to point B.)

[bladespark]

I have that happen so much. Beginnings are easy, and endings are often obvious, but middles are so hard!

[trobadora]

Worked on an exchange fic yesterday. I have words, but think I'm missing something. I haven't yet figured out what. *pokes at it some more

[bladespark]

Well, words are words. Good luck figuring it out. :3
