ysilme here: 1,6k for a blog entry, plus a bit of sorting around through some fic files. I really do need to do some housekeeping with these!

sylvanwitch here: 1038 words on "Snake Riders" and a lot of errands run in the heat, as well as a nice, but hot, walk in a nearby park.

Excellent work! Woooo-hooo! :-)

Thank you!

Day 29: I wrote about 1.2k this morning, before it started getting hot, and then I managed very little the rest of the day but that's okay :D

That IS okay--more than! Excellent word count and good strategy for taking it easy in the heat! :-)

I'd like a day where I can just have a good couple hours to write and I'm not getting that. Today was a bit of trying to catch up from my yo-yo trip down to my parent's/old hometown. And the heat.
But I got a few more words in for my fic, another 108 words to be exact, and with those words I think I've gotten the gist for the ending of the fic. Needs to be cleaned up and put into real words, but I've at least captured the idea of it enough that I can do something with it in the next draft.

Contrats to those with some 1k+ word days! That is some good writing you've gotten done :)

I am sending you all the consecutive-writing-hours vibes I can spare and hope that you get that time you need. It can be exceptionally frustrating to WANT to write but be unable to because of circumstances outside of your control. I hope you get to work on that ending soon. :-) Meanwhile, YAY for the words and the gist-getting! YAY!

300 words of what is shaping up to be more smut.

Smut can be like that sometimes, can’t it? *sighs*. I guess we’ll just have to accept our sacrifice as readers and writers. ;-)

Day 29: another page and a bit, longhand.

Yay! Progress! Slow and steady wins the race! :-)

cornerofmadness

1045 words on the prodigal son big bang and 1705 words on an original short story that I better find a caboose for before I run out of word count

Man, I hear you on that last observation--I often have the same problem with sticking the landing within the word limit. I guess I just need to keep practicing. (Or find myself a wealthy patron--*snorts*)

YAY for so many words--that's a fantastic day's work! Wooo-hoooo! *\o/*

wealthy patron, live that dream!

Yeah word count is never my friend

Day 29: 227 words for me today!

Go, you! You're keeping on keeping on! :-)

Wrote down another logline to pitch on Thursday. So now I have three, which is what I wanted, but I'm not super happy with any of them. Tomorrow I'm going to try to refine them some and see if I can come up with any other ones.

I hope some ideas jump up and bite for you! YAY for keeping at it!

30th: My update post. No fic as yet (and I'm not expecting time for any, though I might possibly manage an alibi sentence, just for luck).

It's important to have routines, and we love that yours includes us. :-)

29 June - 100ish words on notes & ideas for TRSB1, and more brainstorming on a different thing.

Good work! You are making steady progress! Yay!

trobadora

Oops, somehow I fell behind on checking in again. But I did write (varying amounts) every day, so here's my check-in for days 21 through 29.

YAY! YAY! Yay for writing every day and for checking in when you can and just for being here and being you. :-)

ysilme

What she says. ♥ *hugs*

It rained a bit here, making the weather a bit cooler and aiding my productivity. 1,244 words on that short story. I think there's about the same number of words left to wrap it up, give or take, so that will be my goal for day 30!

Oh, that's good news! I hope the cooling continues for you. Meanwhile, that's a fantastic word count, and I hope the finish comes in just as you predict!

Days 28 and 29 were still hot, but I did manage to get more words down on new assignments and clear out most of the tabs that I have been sitting on, waiting for my brain to want to work on them. It's always nice to have enough things on your plate for your brain to choose whichever one it actually wants to work on, and do get reasonable word count out of it.

That is a sound process for making sure you have something to work on, and I admire it. I have lists. Unfortunately, they are currently populated by many things I do not want to do, so I'm basically choosing the least unwanted and working my way toward the most unwanted. ;-)

Anyway, YAY for words! YAY!
