Write every day - Day 28

Do you have a writing bucket list: Things you'd like to try, do, and/or achieve before you shuffle off the mortal coil? Have you already reached every significant milestone in your writing life? Are you somewhere in between?

I'd like to publish a novel with a publishing house, traditional or otherwise. That one, I think, is doable. My stretch goal is to someday attend a convention and meet actual fans. This is a stretch not only because I'd need to publish the novel and sell enough copies to have fans, but I'd also have to get over my anxiety about large, packed spaces and meeting total strangers. Still, that's what stretch goals are for, right? *nods*

ysilme here: I started editing a new old WIP. It's mostly reading so far to see why I have so many versions of this already, but I added about 140 new words yesterday, too. Today, so far, reading only, but a few words are likely to come as well.

sylvanwitch here: I added 603 to the H50 fic and am at the action climax of the story. I'm also at over 12K! How'd that happen? Lol!

ysilme here: I had a heck of a day, starting with an emergency visit to the vet because we feared one of our male cats had a serious injury or eaten something poisonous - he was totally apathetic and kind of lame, and had no interest whatsoever in food, which is an absolute alarm signal with this one. Turned out he has "only" a chest infection with high fever and pain from his wonky vertebra, probably due to the fever. So we're now having two patients on the sofa, altough the furry one doesn't have to inhale or drink herbal tea. ^^ Later, I got a message from or choir master that she's sick as well and had to cancel practice, which meant a telephone marathon as many of the elder members don't have email or don't reliably check it. It was also my turn to look after my mother's chickens and water the garden, which didn't run smoothly today - I think the chickens don't like me much, there was quite some ado when I put shading over their free run, although they're used to me doing this kind of stuff. I'm clearly more of a cat person. Until now, there hasn't been time for writing or reading at all, so it's likely to be much like yesterday: mostly reading with a couple of new words on the old WIP.

sylvanwitch here: It was a long day and a longer afternoon--car stuff, all taken care of now--but I managed 377 words on the H50 fic despite the killer headache that's been trying to derail me all day.
