Write every day - Day 11

When you've had a long day, and you're tired and whipped and you just want to veg out in front of the TV or your laptop or something, what makes you sit down and pound out a few words?

For me, this challenge definitely helps in those instances. Not only is it a kind of public accountability, but I'm also very self-competitive, so the idea of breaking my streak actually makes me anxious, so participating in WED has kept me writing even on days like this one that seem like they are full of hard work and will never end. :-)

ysilme here: I seem to have popped the writing wall bubble, words are coming more easily again. 480 so far today, part draft for the crazy drawer fic, part final words for it.

sylvanwitch here: Despite having spent the day cleaning and hauling the last of the crap from our old house to this one, I managed to scrounge up 361 words on the Hawaii Five-0 weird AU I started the other day.

Write every day - Day 12

A semi-recent discussion on writing rooms has me thinking about the spaces in which we write. What's your favorite writing space? Do you write in bed? On the train? At a cafe? Do you need very specific conditions in which to write, or are you the sort who can write anywhere at all? Please share if you feel like it! :-)

I actually have a writing room/office, with bookshelves; a big old farmhouse table for my laptop, printer, etc.; a bulletin board, artwork, a storage area, and my altar. I have speakers for my laptop for instrumental music, which is the only kind I can listen to when I write, and a windchimes machine and little fountain, as well, plus the requisite candles, including one that's designed to crackle like a fireplace. When I go full-on writing mode, with all the bells and whistles (which isn't as frequently as one might think--it takes TIME to turn stuff on, lol!), it's quite atmospheric. In the summer, I sometimes write on the deck if I can manage a spot under the umbrella that keeps the sun from creating too much screen glare.

ysilme here: I've been quite lazy today; 350 words of nonfic and about 150 for the crazy drawer crossover, before we went out to dinner with our mums and my father. I might not even write more today and rather read or so. ^^

sylvanwitch here: We had another day at the old house, plus a visit to my mother for Mother's Day, so I wrote before we left the house. I added 400 words to the Hawaii Five-0 AU, and I'm enjoying it immensely so far.
