Let us know if we missed you or if you didn't check in for a while, so we can add you. Of course joining the fun is possible at any point.

[personal profile] ysilme here: worked mostly on non-fic things today, but got in about 300 words of fiction in even so, and about 700 of nonfic. Now I have to deal with the nuisance of Windows having eaten my touchpad driver so it stopped working entirely... pro: I had the external mouse within reach and the batteries work. Con: I can't get up or change position because Viggo is snuggled against my leg and of course I wouldn't dare to disturb a feline's sleep. But a feline doesn't make for a comfortable mouse pad either... so I'm now running my mouse on the tiny bit of space left of my lapdesk. *headdesk* The things we do for our four-legged tyrants beloved pets...

[personal profile] sylvanwitch here: Of the 79 essays I had left to grade today, I've graded 53, which means I have 26 more to grade. *sighs* I'll probably do half of them tomorrow before we go off for a day o' fun, and then I'll finish them on Sunday, since T. has to work. I have Monday off for the holiday, so I'll get one more day of freedom out of this hell week. ;-) Anyway, I did my writing before the grading because I knew what state my brain would be in if I went in the reverse order. I added 560 new words to Part III of the MPI saga.

From: [personal profile] sanguinity
I was at another location today, which meant I drove instead of bus commuting, which meant no longhand on the bus this morning. But! When everyone cleared out to go buy lunch, I sat down in the empty training room with my packed lunch and wrote a page longhand.

This weekend: transcribing it all and seeing what I've got!

I have to admit to a wee bit of vicarious excitement to hear how it all turns out when you've transcribed it! *grins* I'm glad you found the time and a way to do your words today, and I hope that you find what you've done to be marvelous when it's all put together! :-)

Today I got far enough in the scene to see how what I wrote back on Monday failed to adequately set up today's bit, so a lot of today's writing included many notes about how to revise what I did earlier. (I did what I could longhand, but pen and paper is not so hot for revision.) So maybe less straight-up transcription/"see what I have" and more revision/"see what I can mold it into." I'll be sure to report back.

But the good news is that this is all on a story that I've been stuck on since August. Too early to know if I've broken the logjam, but this week has felt like productive time, so that's what I'm calling it. :-)

I slept through Day 16 in what hopefully seems like the final strike of this flu/cold/whatever this is, but I spent Day 17 without *any* fever or sleepiness and with lots of writing energy, so yay! Still working on that short story. The challenge rules say it needs to be under 7K, and I think there might be a chance it'll qualify. What I so far have is over 4K as of five minutes ago, but the story also seems more than half done, so there's definitely a chance.

Yay for feeling better and for writing energy! I'm glad you're recovering and that the words are working for you, and I hope the story goes as planned so that you can meet the challenge requirements. :-)

Cats cannot be disturbed! *g*

Day 16 - Finished and posted my drabble. Why is writing a mere 100 words so hard? There's all this careful shaving away of words without losing the sense. Anyway, I think it turned out well, thanks to my awesome beta. ♥

Day 17 - Alibi sentence on a recalcitrant WiP.

Oh, noes, re: recalcitrant WiP! I hope it becomes calcitrant (*grins*) for you in short order.

Also, YAY for posting the drabble! I am ALL with you on the why is it so hard front. I find drabbles--genuine, actual-definition of drabble drabbles--very difficult. I am NOT good at that tiny world-building. I like to do them now and again, though, to get the practice in. I think it helps my writing as a whole. I hope you find the same to be true for you. :-)

Four sentences, longhand. Sort of a reminder to myself that I need to write this scene or something like it, sooner rather than later. But as has been a theme this week, I need sleep. Trying to stay up long enough for one or two more sets of tennis but I'm thisclose to falling asleep on the couch.

Ugh, sometimes our own bodies are our worst enemies in the writing energy department. I mean, I know we're supposed to listen to them because we need the sleep or whatever, but grrrr! Sometimes I resent my body's demands SO much. *sighs* Anyway, I hope you find the energy you need. :-)

Day 18: 855 words, fleshing out a scene that could quite happily have been elided except that [spoiler]. Argh. I need to move forward with this, not just keep kludging up what I already have. *sigh*

Ah, yes, I recognize in what you're describing a favorite deflection tactic of my own writing, when I'm not certain where I need to go, or I know where I need to go but not quite how to get there, so I tweak the stuff before it--a LOT--hoping somehow I'll just sidle into where I need to be. *sighs* I'm sending you ALL the motivation for forward momentum, my friend!

Maybe I can finish the chocolate box this weekend. I mean it's technically plotless conversation fic so really how hard can it be?

auroracloud: a fountain pen against a sheet of paper and writing (writing)
From: [personal profile] auroracloud
A writing podcast I listen to (Write Now by Sarah Werner) had a recent episode about the topic 'What are you afraid of?" especially with regards to writing, and included a suggestion to write a list of your own fears, to see if there are fears that affect your writing, keep you from writing the things you want, etc. So I did that and it took quite a while, but was also very cleansing, to to speak. :-) Anyway, later I worked a bit on my short story, but mostly background stuff for characters, just a few dozen new words of actual story draft. Still, it was probably productive. :-)

It sounds like it was both productive and cathartic, not a bad combination at all when faced with writing challenges. YAY for words of the self-reflection sort and for working away on background stuff for your story too!
