I actually managed to somewhat start tidying up my home today. Not a lot, but some. At this rate I might have a nice-looking home by 2030? But hey, it's a start.

Today's Writing

More worldbuilding today, this time for Ambush Project #2. Wrote down lots of stuff, it was really interesting. I've been in a bit of a daze most of the day, this kind of thing isn't really conductive to being well-organized about the rest of my life!

In the evening I also took a look at my bingo prompts again, wrote down a few ideas - and I ended up actually starting that story that I wrote down the fandom and prompt for yesterday. Didn't get far, though, because I'm getting tired. Then again, I did also spend a lot of words on a non-WED post about fannish things, so even if that's not what I typically count for writing (because I want to make sure I somehow work on my creative stuff), but it did take its time.

Oops, thought I'd checked in yesterday but somehow I didn't! I was a bit distracted last night.

April 18th - 1157 words, a 1k challenge ficlet and some editing.

April 19th - 1871 words, a complete fic written and posted, just made it in before the deadline! I had no idea what to write so I just started typing, it turned into an idea, and just took off! I love when that happens.

fun fun fun

update: solved every problem that post mentions, providing we define not "AO3 won't let me put some accented Latin characters or any Chinese characters in my click-or-hover-to-translate CSS" but "I need a way to make sure the reader gets these translations regardless of whether they are on desktop or mobile and regardless of whether they have the creator style on or off" as one of the problems. I need to put in a bug report, too. also this novel-length now has fourteen chapters of draft on AO3. the last three chapters alternate "[Scene #]" with horizontal rules and that's the whole of those chapters' body text, mind you, and there's a number of smaller placeholders in earlier chapters, but the text wrapping around the images works and the linked footnotes all work.

I mean, to be fair, this doesn't really need special formatting either.

I just don't want to slow down the narrative to explain either "shit the PoV character definitely knows, and the reader ought to but might not" or "shit the PoV character definitely doesn't know, and the reader doesn't need to but will miss some dramatic irony if they don't". and having text continue to the left or right of the embedded illustration, instead of only before and after, is so much prettier.

That might actually be the case for me. *sigh* *hugs in sympathy* But yes, it's definitely a start, which is the important part! *\O/* And writing seems to have gone really well for you on top, so double yay! *\O/*
Sorry I also missed several days in a row again. I seem to have really difficulties to keep track of anything these days - on Thursday, Siljan thought it was Friday and I thought it was Wednesday. *g* Anyway, I wrote a lot, though mostly again non-fic -
various letters of the proper letter-writing kind, morning pages and my ten-year-calendar, the latter two both in longhand, but also continued editing at the WIP every day. On the 16th it was 1,7k, on the 17th 1k, 173 words on the 18th and about 500 today.

I've written some words for "how the light gets in", which is a The Untamed fanfic I'm writing because I need fluff in my life right now. Some of these words are just planning future scenes. This seems reasonable to me, on this bright sunny day. Especially since I spent the morning of watching Phantom of the Opera on that YouTube stream and the afternoon out in the sunshine. :)

I definitely need to catch up on your personal posts, but today is not that day. *grins* I will say I'm so excited for you that you're finding so much to write on your various projects--that's awesome! :-)

I spent a lot of the day finishing up the last of three weeks' worth of lessons (we're back "in school"--read: online--tomorrow), but I also added 584 words to Bond/Q. Plus, we got a walk in in between the raindrops, so that was good.

Forget that nonsense with rocks, tidying is the real task that was assigned to Sisyphus.


Hit 470 tonight! Whoot! I didn't have a lot of time, but I got on a nice roll while I was doing it.

I'm still struggling to find a schedule for writing, but some friends have proposed doing a month writing meet-up online, so I'm going to take advantage of that.

My backyard ends on a set of railroad tracks, and the coyotes use the rail corridor to travel through the city. They've been really active lately, I guess because there are fewer humans on the streets.

Day 19 - 400ish words on a Maedhros/Fingon thing. I had to stop and get some other things done, so I really hope when I have time again I can pick up the thread. I'm liking where it is going, but it's not my usual, thus the need for hope/luck.

Day 19: I didn't work on the nonfiction project today, because like you, I spent the day tidying. Specifically, shelving books in the, er, book-room (the stuff we list on the internet is here at the house in a spare room). It was like a game of bookshelf Tetris.

I did write an alibi sentence. In fact I wrote three. More little plot sprouts. ;-)
