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 vanquished the recalcitrant opening scene and got 219 words for it, yay! It's not finished as I ran out of time due to RL happening unexpectedly, but I seem to be on a good way with it.

sylvanwitch here: Another busy (good-busy) day, but I started it with a third of those word prompts from yesterday's word generator list and got 385 words of something that may or may not ever be more. I like these random bits and bobs. They feel cleansing. I still have to finish the flash fic, but I'm waiting until tomorrow, when T's at work and I have the house to myself for the day. I need that kind of quiet for this kind of struggle. ;-)

[badly_knitted]

June 13th - 856 words. Drabbles of 200, 250, and 350 words, and a spot of editing on a fic for posting.

[sylvanwitch]

Excellent work, as usual. Your consistency is impressive. :-)

[badly_knitted]

Thank you! It's taken a lot of time and effort to get reasonably consistent, and there are still plenty of days when it's hard to make myself write at all, but I am stubborn and so far haven't let myself skip any days. Let's hope I can continue!

[mtassarin]

I'm afraid I missed a couple of days of writing/anything writing-related for health reasons. :( But I'm back at it on day 13! I figured out a few more cool details for the outline, and I think in another couple of days I'll be putting it aside until Camp and focusing on a mixture of editing and short stories instead. But for now, there are still some plans to finalize.

[sylvanwitch]

I'm so sorry to hear that you've been feeling poorly, and I hope you're feeling better now. Go, you, in getting back to the work! I look forward to hearing about your other projects, too. :-)

[mtassarin]

Thank you! <3 I'm definitely feeling better now. It was nothing too big, just a reaction to a sudden change in the weather.

[shadaras]

ysilme - Congrats on the opening scene! :D That's wonderful to hear!

sylvanwitch - hope it's going well! <3

Day 13: uh more words than I think for the amount that I'm just like "yes this is editing"; on the order of 500ish this morning before I got busy doing friend things all day. :)

[sylvanwitch]

Excellent progress on the editing! Wooo-hooo! YAY! And thank you kindly, too, for the good wishes. :-)

[sanguinity]

Switched back to Hornblower's Lost Honour, did heavy revision on the most recent chapter, then another 700 words, thereby finishing it. That brings this story to 48K in 6 chapters, and counting.

Now I'm going to go have a nap, listen to the rain, and daydream how this next chapter is going to go.

[sylvanwitch]

I hope the daydreams were extra sweet and brought you just the sorts of scenes you need most to add. :-) YAY for excellent words and so many of them!

[china_shop]

ysilme -- Yay you!! That's great news! *\o/*
sylvanwitch -- glad you're enjoying the bits and bobs -- it can be really fun writing with no expectations, I find. ♥ Best of luck with your plans for the flash fic tomorrow!!

14th (already! meep!): 323 words on the WIP, and 1120 on the exchange treat (including a rough draft of the ending -- now I just need to link up what I have with that and write it out properly). \o/

[sylvanwitch]

Thank you--I'm going to need it! (I can tell I've slipped into Avoidance Mode.)

Wow, that's fantastic on the exchange treat! And yay for steady progress on the WIP, as well. YOU'RE AMAZING! *\o/*

[marvelouscity]

Another alibi sentence.

[sylvanwitch]

YAY! I mean that--YAY! You're here, and it's always good to see you. :-)

[yasaman]

Day 13: 321 words for me today!

[sylvanwitch]

Excellent work! You're making steady progress!

[nafs]

Day 13 - my usual rule is "the day is not over until I go to sleep" and I pushed that rule a LOT tonight but I typed up yesterday's stuff and then got down another two pages plus about half a page of notes. Still circling this same scene but it's getting closer to useful. Probably not fast enough to include in what goes out to the cheerleaders but it's not quite as blindingly frustrating as it was when I first started trying to write it.

[sylvanwitch]

Well, HUZZAH for having reduced it from "blindingly frustrating" to a more livable condition and YAY for more pages and notes! You're going to beat this into submission yet! Lol! :-)

[lferion]

13 June - 300+ words, about 150 each on TRSB 1 & 2.

[sylvanwitch]

Excellent work! YAY!

[luzula]

Sounds like you both got some good words, anyway!

On the 13th, I have:
- edited chapter 19 of the poly fic
- done some research for a new longfic
- written 300 words on the new longfic

I love it when a new story sort of elaborates itself in my head! I know I'll have some plot problems to settle later on, but the opening scenes won't be difficult, I think.

[sylvanwitch]

YAY for a new longfic and for editing the poly fic and for new stories unfurling their petals in your head! SO GOOD!

[satoyan]

Day 13: a few more sentences. I never think about this story until I sit down to do my sentence(s), which is unusual, but when I start writing it seems doable enough. I might write it three sentences at a time though, lol.

[sylvanwitch]

Three sentences at a time sounds like a great process, seriously! YAY for trying something new and liking it! :-)

[tehomet]

126 words. It's flowing like concrete! :D

[sylvanwitch]

Oh, dear! Well, I guess the good news is that at least it's still flowing at all, but that can be very frustrating, I know. I hope the words start picking up the pace for you! *waves magic wand*
