ysilme here: Again a quote chosen by sylvanwitch on an image by me. My tally for day 8: 1,2k with 810 words for the blog entry and some nonfic.
sylvanwitch here: On Day 8, I added 209 words to the story, took some other words out, and called it a finished rough draft. I like the ending, but I want to tighten up the tension leading to the climax, and I’m planning for it to be fewer than 1K words total. That is tomorrow’s problem.

Jul 8: 750 words in three vignettes. Plus I named FOUR WHOLE CHARACTERS, and then I said fuck this and rewrote a few sentences so I didn't have to name the fucking gay bar, too.

Date: 2024-07-09 06:52 am (UTC)Day 7: Alibi sentence. I spent the day on some depressing adulting, then after dinner fell asleep in the chair like an old person and didn't wake up until 4:00 a.m.! Argh.
Day 8: 640 words of this and that, later to be edited into the other thing.
