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.

~ ~ ~

ysilme here: I'm still writing my blog post, adding about 300 words today so far and not yet finished.

sylvanwitch here: 871 words for me tonight after a loooong work day. *sighs* The good news is that I might almost be on top of things for now. I think tomorrow should get me to a point at which I can look at having Wednesday mostly free. Thursday, more grading comes in. Ditto next Thursday. *sighs* Still, the prep work should finally be done tomorrow.

[badly_knitted]

Dec 7th - 1401 words. 5 double drabbles, a triple drabble, and editing on two fics for posting.

Also finished knitting the light blue arm warmers except for the sewing up and started a purple pair.

[cassini]

[680 words on the Weirdest day of the dark season so far. i cant do it justice. just a weird day ]

[shadaras]

I wrote a nice 1.2k oneshot for the fun of it today. :) Plus going through and reminding myself what I'm supposed to be doing with my big bang fic, and starting to hack away at the transition that I've been avoiding for the last while.

[sylvanwitch]

Excellent word count, especially with all those awesome drabbles! And you are knitting whirlwind (though not actually because I suspect trying to knit in a high wind would be counter-productive). ;-)

[sylvanwitch]

Some days have that sort of eldritch, weird-light, brain-snake energizing feel, don't they? Sending you protective light, if that's your bag. :-)

[sylvanwitch]

For the fun of it is the BEST writing reason of all time! YAY!

Also: YAY! for taking on something you've been avoiding. That's heroic, especially given the year we've all had!

[sanguinity]

ysilme: Hurrah, words!

sylvanwitch: Yay, you're pulling ahead of the work! I hope tomorrow goes well, and you'll be able to enjoy a respite on Wednesday. And I must say how impressed I am that you can work all day and then produce another 800-900 words in the evening!


Check-in: Pulled out my long-neglected Consentacles draft and spent most of my writing time staring out the window, working out what I wanted for the rest of the story. Wrote a sentence or two as a down-payment on what's yet to come -- which I'm fine with, sometimes I need to daydream about the story a bit.

[nafs]

Day 7: 215 words

[cornerofmadness]

1621 words on the dark fic that will not end

[china_shop]

*cheers on the blog post and the grading (and wow, that's a lot of words after a long work day!!*

8th: 477 words and a very rough outline of how to get to the end (*fingers crossed*). :-)

[lferion]

Dec 7 - 100 words on a new drabble, part of the SWG postcard challenge piece.

[yasaman]

Day 7: 1,261 words today, and I'm so. close. to being done! But I'm too sleepy to keep writing, so I'll finish up tomorrow.

[satoyan]

Day 7: 108 grudging nano words.

[sakana17]

Day 7: alibi sentence and some edits.

[luzula]

Wordcount for 7th of December: 500
Total wordcount on poly fic: 51,300

That's going fine, but I really have to think of a title for my Yuletide fic soon...

[auroracloud]

I wrote on the 6th and the 7th, too! I've been starting to work out some of the big questions and gaping holes with my space novel, through writing about them by hand and also taking walks. I've also added some hundreds of words into the manuscript, edging towards a big plot twist and hoping I get it to make sense by the time I get there. :D

[badly_knitted]

Thank you!

At this time of year it would also be very chilly. >.

[alexcat]

I was busy and forgot to do my Dec 7 totals so here they are -
Cap-IM Xmas exchange - 87
Cap/Tony/Nat pwp that I have no business working on - 1213
B5 episode report - 249
for a total of 1549! Go me!

[ysilme]

Yay for the great wordcount, and for getting on top with things! I hope it works out for you to have tomorrow free.

[sylvanwitch]

*sighs* I didn't get quite as far as I'd hoped today, but I'm within shouting distance. Another couple of hours tomorrow morning, and I think I can take the rest of Wed. off. Yay! :-)

Daydreaming about the story sounds LOVELY. One of the things I miss about the drive to work is the chance to let my brain wander over hill and down dale where my stories are concerned. I find a familiar drive an almost creative meditative experience (unless traffic is miserable, in which case, not so much--lol!). Yay for ideas coming to you through daydreams!

[sylvanwitch]

Great job! Words are words! :-)

[sylvanwitch]

It seems so! Oy! Good luck with it!

[sylvanwitch]

Thank you, as always, for your kindness. *smishes you*

I'm rooting for you that today brought you the ending! Gooooo, you!

[sylvanwitch]

YAY! Yay for words and for a worthy cause for them! :-)

[sylvanwitch]

Oh, I hope today brought you the final burst you needed!

[sylvanwitch]

Ugh, I'm sorry the words were being difficult today, but congratulations for making them happen against all odds!

[sylvanwitch]

Words (and editing) happened! Yay!

[sylvanwitch]

Titles are hard. *nods head in agreement*

Good luck!

[sylvanwitch]

I'm sending you loads of plot-sense energy, hon! Good luck getting there! YAY!

[sylvanwitch]

Maybe you have no business working on it, but I'm glad you are. Yowza! Lol!

Excellent word count all around!

[sylvanwitch]

It looks like I'll have about two hours more work to do tomorrow, and then I'll be free until the afternoon, when I have a zoom meeting with some students. That should be fun, though, not work. :-)

And your photo calendar project sounds lovely!

[cornerofmadness]

thanks

[auroracloud]

Thank you, dear! I'm sure I can use every joule of plot-sense energy that comes my way, given how many things I'm trying to put into this story! :-)

[ysilme]

Seconding sylvanwitch's wishes!!! It sounds as if you're on a good path. ♥
