ysilme here: 824 words for a blog post for me, possibly more as I'm not finished yet. My migraine is better which is good as I had to do a lot of urgent changes to the church website due to the hard lockdown, and my spoons get used up in a shocking manner. I haven't commented on any of you for the last days for this reason, but I hope this will get better now that the most urgent jobs are out of the way.

sylvanwitch here: I had my last remote teaching responsibility this morning and then an errand to run, and then I came home and started my holiday break by grading ten truly terrible essays. *sighs* But, I also added 943 words to my novel, so it's all good.

Comments

[badly_knitted]

Dec 18th - 1032 words, the start of a challenge fic that's not quite finished, and some editing.

Knitting - about 70 rows across two arm warmers (finished one and started its twin).

[sylvanwitch]

Excellent work on both counts and just a general *\o/* for your consistent awesomeness!

[badly_knitted]

*bows* Thank you! I like to keep busy.

[shadaras]

1.1k for a flash exchange assignment that's now finally done, and another 600ish words of what'll hopefully become a treat for that same exchange. :) But hey, if I don't finish it in time I'll probably write it just for me anyway, since it's me writing a light-hearted version of a rarepair I like and most recently did an angsty version of.

[sylvanwitch]

Wow, you're on fire! That's an awesome word count! YAY for finishing the exchange assignment and for starting something else too!

I don't know if this is your experience or not, but if I like a rarepair and have an itch, I usually end up having to write something to scratch it, and that is just always so satisfying, even if no one else ever reads it.

[shadaras]

I write f/f a lot because fandom doesn't like it. So, yeah, I've done that before.

[china_shop]

19th: 858 words, which I know is pretty good, but it really should have been more. I've been singularly unfocused this morning, and now I'm heading out for lunch.

[sylvanwitch]

Oh, dear...I'm sorry to hear about the lack-of-focus, and I hope that lunch somehow magically centered you. :-) But yes, that word count is great!

[alexcat]

Got two Cap Iron man treats done at 988.

[sylvanwitch]

Excellent! And as a huge fan of Stony, let me just thank you in advance for adding to the abundance of amazing fics out there! :-)

[sanguinity]

ysilme: Oh, I'm so glad your migraine is feeling better. And yay, 824 words, that's a good chunk!

sylvanwitch: I'm so sorry about the truly terrible essays! But hooray, holiday break, and also hooray, words!


Check-in: 160 words before work, and a few more sentences longhand after work.

[ysilme]

Thank you! RL is currently so odd for me that I'm grateful about any writing happening, and when additional unpleasantness like the migraine goes away. ^^
Congrats to your own writing happening!

[sylvanwitch]

Thank you, my friend, for the commiseration. It is appreciated. Today's were slightly less bad, mostly because I sort the grading by the ones I expect to be least good and move toward the ones I hope will be the best, so as the days go on, they take less time each to grade because most of the comments are "Nice observation!" and "Good thesis!" and "Great word choice!" as opposed to the lengthy explanations of why a thesis statement needs to actually have a thesis. *sighs* ;-)

Anyway, listen to me natter. GO YOU for keeping your hand in despite real life's concerted effort to get you to stop. :-)

[cornerofmadness]

spent the day packing, got 1075 late night

[sylvanwitch]

YAY for words despite the packing and YAY for your safe arrival (just saw your recent post)! I hope the holidays are as family-drama-free as it's possible for any family gathering to be.

[cornerofmadness]

thanks all around

[yasaman]

Day 18: 808 words for me today!

[sylvanwitch]

Oh, excellent! Brava! *\o/*

[lferion]

Dec 18 - 100+ words of notes on the thing I was working on sketching out bits for the last couple days. Also had a nice and thought-provoking chat with a friend about it.

[sylvanwitch]

Those can be the BEST conversations, can't they? I'm so glad it was a good one for you and also that you got notes done as well. Excellent!

[luzula]

18th: Posted a Yuletide treat written earlier, and finished off that ficlet with 600 more words. Nothing on the poly fic.

[sylvanwitch]

Wow! Look at you go! YAY for so much productivity! You rock!

[sakana17]

Day 18: 415 words.

[sylvanwitch]

Great work! Keep it up! :-)

[satoyan]

Day 18: 541 nano words.

[sylvanwitch]

Excellent! Go, you! *\o/*

[silveradept]

Day 18 was a lot of clearing out tabs, so that's good for words on one project. There's always more tabs to examine, of course. There was a lot of other things yesterday that were not words, but they do mean the space is more festival decorated than it was before.

[sylvanwitch]

That's excellent! Yay! Sometimes the "housekeeping," virtual or otherwise, is absolutely necessary for further productivity.

[ysilme]

Yay for holiday breaks and lovely word counts! *\O/* I hope the grading wasn't as bad as feared, or at least you had something nice to reward yourself with! *hugs*

[sylvanwitch]

Today's grading was a bit better, mostly because I always begin by grading the ones I expect will be problematic and move towards the ones I expect to be better, so I can grade more quickly as I go. Tomorrow's batch should be fair to middling in quality, I hope.

I hope you're feeling better, hon! *hugs*

[ysilme]

I do, despite everything things are rather relaxed and quiet, doubtlessly due to the lockdown. *hugs back*
That's a sensible routine! I'm also always trying to get what looks most bothersome, tiring, or complicated out of the way first, to have it done with and also an easier going-on after that.
