Write Every Day, August Day #4

[auroracloud]

Not much remarkable going on. Except that I got a much-needed massage, and somehow I got stuck watching sports on TV, which I normally never do. And I'm enjoying Heather Rose Jones's The Daughter of Mystery quite much.

Writing

I've been trying to finishing the edits to my Torchwood fic, having some trouble getting over that "hate everything I've written" phase again. But I'm getting there, and have done something about pretty much all of my very useful beta notes. I recently had some wine, so I might see if the inhibition-loosening effects of that will help at all with finishing things. Though probably I still have to leave a few things to be fixed tomorrow.

I also added something like two sentences to the fic I was writing a lot yesterday.

Checking in for days 3 & 4 both, as they are pretty similar: fiddling with the Application, making more beta comments.

Good luck getting over that phase! It really is quite annoying. :-(

[sylvanwitch]

It sounds like you had a good day--yay! :-)

I wrote just under 700 words on that Tony/Steve fic I haven’t gotten around to naming. Apparently, it’s going to be written, however, so I suppose I’ll have to come up with a pithy title.

[muccamukk]

Worked out about 300 words on this. They're on the bed! Sex may occur!

Have company rn though. So smut writing awkward.

[tinx_r]

200 words on a silly bit of fluff that may yet become an older_not_dead contribution. More may yet be forthcoming before I sleep!

(Also you missed my name off Day 3 tally, I'm not sure if that matters :))

[navaan]

Checking in for Day #3 and #4. Around 300 words on day 3 and about 400 words yesterday.

Finally the terrible work week is over and some real words may occur. :D

Aww, I know the "I hate my writing" phase too well. It's been on me too often lately. Don't listen to yourself. We're always our harshest critics.

[esteliel]

Only an alibi sentence for me, alas. Hopefully I'll be able to make up for it today, I have so much editing to do, argh.
