ysilme here: I'm currently doing a lot of proof-reading for a project and did a lot of that today, although not for any project of mine. It'll likely be another alibi sentence day for me, like yesterday, but words are words. Oh, and the two-legged boy is better and the four-legged one not grumpy today. XD

sylvanwitch here: 538 words on "Magic School" and pretty satisfied with how it's coming along.

March 4th - 758 words, work on three fics, two of which are now posted.

[sylvanwitch]

YAY! YAY! *does the posting dance*

[badly_knitted]

Thanks! I am REALLY clearing the decks of older fics this year, even if it leaves me nothing to post in the end.

[chanter1944]

Checking in for both days 3 and 4. Only a handful of sentences yesterday, but 200+ words today so far.

[sylvanwitch]

Words are words, no matter how many or few, and you're doing great! YAY!

[shadaras]

Proofreading feels like it should count for this, ysilme! It takes such similar attention and focus. :)

And I hope you're doing well today too, sylvanwitch!

Day 4: About a hundred words of fic, and a nice evening cooking and watching TV with a friend. :)

[sylvanwitch]

Thank you so much--you're so kind! :-)

Ah, that sounds like a truly excellent evening--here's to more of them! (And, of course, to more words as well, but not at the expense of other things that make you happy.)

[ysilme]

That sounds like a very nice evening, good word count included! :o)

[ljm]

Day 4: A little over 300 words, mostly of a silly fanfic idea.

[sylvanwitch]

YAY for silly fanfic! I find that's my FAVORITE thing to write when I'm blue or struggling to find writing motivation. Enjoy it!

[ysilme]

I second that! It's my go-to-method also when I just want to have some fun with writing. Mine are mostly drawer fic, as in never intended to get posted, just written for my own amusement.

[bluedreaming]

ysilme: good luck with proofreading! (And glad the mood is better!)

sylvanwitch: cheers for words!

March 4: wrote a few more sentences, so triple drabble is almost done.

[ysilme]

Thanks, and yay for your own word count!

[sylvanwitch]

Thank you! YAY for progress on your triple drabble too! :-)

[cornerofmadness]

520 words on Digging up Bones

[sylvanwitch]

Excellent progress! I know it's been a struggle for you recently (RL, I mean), so I think it's great that you're getting out the words.

[china_shop]

5th: alibi sentence. :-)

[sylvanwitch]

YAY! Words are words, as we're found of saying round these parts. ;-)

[yasaman]

Day 4: WIP 1 still on pause while I wait for more beta comments and contemplate edits, but I wrote 450 words on WIP 2!

[sylvanwitch]

That's fantastic progress! And good luck with the editing, too.

[lferion]

4 March -- a paragraph or so of the prose that goes with one of the poems I've been working on.

[sylvanwitch]

Ooooh, this sounds like a very interesting project! Go, you, with the new words! :-)

[ysilme]

and pretty satisfied with how it's coming along
♥

[sylvanwitch]

*hugs* I'm glad things are better in your household, hon. May the world follow suit. *hugs more*

[luzula]

I wrote my usual 500 words! Total wordcount 24,200. Er, Apparently it won't be finished at 25K, either…but I swear it will be less than 30K.

[sylvanwitch]

Lol! Suuuure it will! Lol! (I'm laughing WITH you because I'm notorious for starting a short story and ending up with a novella.) Go, you!

[ysilme]

I'm laughing WITH you because I'm notorious for starting a short story and ending up with a novella.
♥ you both XD

[luzula]

Yes, my current fandom has apparently reset my default setting to "novel-length". : )

[regshoe]

Day 4: 550 words. I had told myself that I was going to work on this story until Sunday and then switch to other commitments, but I've a nasty feeling I'll get to Sunday and think, ooh, surely it only needs one more day's work, I can do that... I'm sure I've got time for everything, we'll see how it goes!

[sylvanwitch]

Excellent word count and good luck with figuring out the scheduling and finishing the story when you'd like to. (I definitely know about planning one thing with a story and ending up somewhere else entirely!)

[carenejeans]

Day 4: Alibi sentence, I guess. Mostly just writing a list of things to follow up re: Leigh Brackett.

Ysilme: I'm glad both your boys are better! ;-)

Sylvanwitch: Yay for progress!

[sylvanwitch]

Thank you kindly! And YAY for that alibi sentence--words are words, and you made some. YAY! :-)
