Comments

[china_shop]

Oh no! I hope it passes quickly. *gentle hugs*

9th: 736 words on the fic, and a couple of thousand words of fannish meta comment.

[kate]

<333333 ty bb, me too!

Oooooh, what meta? Guardian meta?

[china_shop]

Yes, we've been having a very meta-y rewatch on sid_guardian. Just two more episodes to go. (I'm really going to miss it.)

[lferion]

8 October - alibi/amnesty sentence on the innumerable stars piece.

[ysilme]

All the sympathies! I hope the ouch is gone again soon.
Day 7: 1,2k
Day 8: 744 words, both on the Nostalgia project.
Other than that, did all my chores, had a good family event on Sunday, did additional editing and research for some writing, and cancelled off the original story I was supposed to write for the Christmas anthology. I already got a very generous deadline, but as things are currently no original writing is happening. There's always next year. *sigh*

[sylvanwitch]

*sends you a soothing poultice*

On Day 9, I wrote 942 words of a scene in the novel (which is what most of this outline is, to be honest) before we have to get our butts on the road.

[regshoe]

Oh dear, vaccine-induced muscle aches are no fun. I hope it passes quickly!

Day 9: Read through and edited the epilogue.

[badly_knitted]

Ouch! Hope the achiness wears off fast. Hopefully words will come once the aches ease off.

Oct 9th - 1014 words. 4 Monday double drabbles, and some work on a fic for posting.

[luzula]

Beta-reading totally counts towards writing. : )

Day 9: More good words on my Trick or treat fic!

[kate]

Ugh I'm sorry I couldn't keep up with that - it was fun to rewatch so closely! Glad it's been fun though!

[kate]

Words gotten, every little bit counts!

[china_shop]

Yeah, it's been pretty time-intensive, and because we've been syncing with a Discord rewatch, we couldn't take a breather at any point. But so worth it. (The posts will always be there and open for comments, if you ever decide to get back to it! ♥)

[kate]

Oh, sorry to hear about the cancellation. But sometimes that's just the way the brain works.

Glad you're still getting words on your other project though! I hope it continues to be good fun!

[china_shop]

Beta-reading totally counts towards writing. : )

+1. I always count it. :-)

[kate]

Dang, nearly a thousand words before even getting going, way to go!

I will take that poultice - it is still sore today, and my wife has "COVID arm"! Who even knew that was a thing?!

[kate]

Oh, so.... you're done? Or is there post-epilogue... stuff? Congrats either way! :D

[kate]

Thanks! I can always hold out hope.

Great wordcount, and congrats on posting (or upcoming posting)!

[kate]

I agree! It's just extra hard because while I love to beta and help my friends, I'm also very aware of all of my own stories which are simply mouldering. :(

Yay trick or treat fic! I love this time of year. :D

[kate]

<3!

[china_shop]

10th: 1,165 words AKA half a sex scene. Other half tomorrow I hope!!

[shadaras]

Day 9: A paragraph or so

[chanter1944]

Tagging in for days 7, 8, and 9, before I forget again!

A few sentences for day 7, word count not tracked.

206 words for day 8. :)

Aaaand a paragraph, so far, for day 9.

[kate]

Hey, more words! Great work!

[kate]

Good job keeping on! I'll get you all fixed up in the tally!

[kate]

Woooooooooot! Way to go! The beta I did yesterday was about 8k of porn lol. Good luck on the other half!

[cornerofmadness]

day 9 337 words. I can't find time

[regshoe]

I still want to do a bit more polishing in various places (and I have to come up with a title...), but that's most of it :D Thank you!

[yasaman]

Day 9: not much spare time today, so just a couple alibi sentences on my main WIP and 111 words on the new/side WIP.

[badly_knitted]

Thanks! I post something every day because I've still got a huge backlog. That one has been let loose on the world, but there are so many more I need to get ready... Thankfully, the next couple of days are drabble posting days. Yes, I have a set posting schedule o_O

Hope your aches are less achy today.

[kate]

I hear you, me neither. But 300+ words is nothing to sneeze at! That's way better than an alibi sentence!

[kate]

Still a very respectable chunk of words for a busy day!

[cornerofmadness]

thanks and you're right
