Write Every Day: Day #20

Feeling physically better today (thanks for the well-wishes!). Otherwise... well, news.

Going to visit a friend soon.

Today's writing

I wrote a little on the same fic I've been working on, and I edited the Yuletide fic a little. I might continue a bit in the evening, depending on when I get back and how I'm feeling. ETA: A bit more editing of the Yuletide story in the evening. Word count is starting to go down a bit as I get rid of unnecessary stuff. I hope I soon get to fixing the part that doesn't work, but not tonight.

Glad you're feeling better. <3

I poked a bit at a story I'm writing (Christmas-themed, so ideally it should be posted this weekend) and worked a bit on betaing.

I didn't manage to get into the right mind-set to actually write something useable. I wrote a token sentence on my original Christmas story I can't use because it's a completely different tone, and pondered ideas for the pinch-hit, but nothing else.

Nearly 3,000 words today, but I still didn't finish the damned fic. Damn it! I'm going to be scrambling tomorrow ...

[identity profile] avon.livejournal.com 2016-12-21 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
I wrote like 1500 words yesterday and got my pinch hit in a few hours before it was due.I thought I had another day but I screwed up the time zone thing. I also sent it off to a kind soul to beta that I found on yulechat. Hopefully they will help me untangle it before the collection opens. Ha.

I spent today mulling over a treat. One of the things that went out as a pinch hit intrigued me. We'll see if I can figure out a story to write. And, maybe beat that other story into some acceptable format.

Mom had out shopping all day so barely had time again. Managed 100 words on a holiday story.

1k on the WIP for me. Though I should probably really start to think about treats instead, aaaah! Reveals are so close now! /o\

Glad you're feeling better! sorry to hear you've been out of sorts health-wise, and also the world events have been hitting so hard. What a world we live in, no?

I made 1,000 words of treat today! and got some helpful edits on Yulefic! When I get back from the slopes everything is going up in one go ;)

[identity profile] auroracloud.livejournal.com 2016-12-21 03:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks! Good luck with finishing the story by the weekend!

[identity profile] auroracloud.livejournal.com 2016-12-21 03:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry you didn't manage to get into the right mindset to do more writing. Sometimes, that happens. Hope this day will be better! *hugs*

[identity profile] auroracloud.livejournal.com 2016-12-21 03:51 pm (UTC)(link)
That's some impressive wordcount, at least! I hope the fic will start to behave and you won't be in too much trouble today.

[identity profile] auroracloud.livejournal.com 2016-12-21 03:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Good thing you managed to upload your pinch hit despite the time zone problem. And good luck both on it and the treat!

[identity profile] auroracloud.livejournal.com 2016-12-21 03:53 pm (UTC)(link)
That's something, at least! The holidays season can be busy,

[identity profile] auroracloud.livejournal.com 2016-12-21 03:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Reveals are so close now!

They are! *still tries to get main story into shape* I'm getting sceptical about my ability to do any of the treats I have ideas for, but we'll see. There's at least one I'd really like to do...

Well, the physical health situation seems to have sorted itself out, and I'm just glad I didn't get properly sick. But thanks! I unfortunately have a tendency to not cope well with world events, for reasons. But I feel more balanced about everything now. Which means I'm basically focusing on fic, chocolate and tea and trying not to think about things too much.

Yay, good for writing! Sounds like it's going productively for you! Maybe I should go skiing as well and find myself very productive. :-D

[identity profile] cornerofmadness.livejournal.com 2016-12-21 07:54 pm (UTC)(link)
oh yes so very busy

I got it under control, but for a while there yesterday I was really ready to toss my computer out the window and hide under a blanket. *g*

[identity profile] auroracloud.livejournal.com 2016-12-22 09:36 am (UTC)(link)
Glad you got it under control. :-) I know the feeling... For parts of yesterday I was despairing why I do this to myself, this being signing up for Yuletide. I just want it to be reveals already so I know if my recipient likes it, although I don't want it to be reveals yet because I still need to edit. *g*

Haha, that's exactly how I feel! *g*

(I want it to be reveals already, so I'll already have done the editing ...)

Yes, that would be ideal!
