Write Every Day - April Day #11

[auroracloud]

Despite having a great time last night, I unfortunately had quite a crash this afternoon, depression and anxiety things hitting me in a pretty bad way. I eventually got over it and am more or less okay now, just tired. But it meant I spent most of the evening in bed. Could use not having these kind of days, but well, nothing for it but dealing with them when they come.

On a plus note, I enjoyed some of the reading while in bed trying to rest and stuff. And I think that once I was well enough to consider writing, the writing made my mood better.

Today's Writing

I wrote a little over 300 words on my novel. I also finally got started organizing my fanfics! I took an idea from ysilme and created a Scrivener project where to put all the WIPs in one fandom in separate files, organized under folders by relationships or character, and marking whether they're an unfinished first draft, a draft being edited, or some random bits I'm not sure where they're going. Tonight I did this for Doctor Who. It was fun, and I really do have a lot of interesting stories I could continue working on. It seems I have 15 stories, altogether over 19,000 words. And that's just Doctor Who. Next I'll do Torchwood, and then assorted other fandoms. But that will have to wait until another day, because I'm tired.

It sucks when depression grabs you (been there most of the week)

I only wrote three book reviews but it was 800 words.

[auroracloud]

Sorry you've been feeling depressed, too. Hope it soon gets better for both of us.

That's a nice bit of writing, anyway! And book reviews can be good for your writing, too. :-)

Thanks, right back at you

And the people who give mt the books appreciate me getting off my butt and getting review done.
