Write Every Day: Day 9

[the_siobhan]

Thanks for the well-wishes everybody. The rain did in fact help, so numbers are considerably better today.

400 words last night! My muse appears to be smiling on me right now. I'll take it.

Oh, that's good news!

Day 9: Post-beta edits to chapter 16, including a few hundred new words.

[the_siobhan]

Go you!

[sylvanwitch]

YAY for words and for sky-clearing rains! YAY! :-)

On Day 9, I added 634 words to Chapter 16.

[the_siobhan]

Great word count!

[badly_knitted]

Yay words!

June 9th - 753 words, a comment ficlet and some editing on a fic for posting.

[the_siobhan]

A very productive day. Go you!

[badly_knitted]

Thank you!

[luzula]

Day 8: Wrote 300 words and finished the first draft of the fic at 10,300 words! \o/
Day 9: Err, alibi editing. I ran out of time for this and several other things on my to-do list...

[sanguinity]

Yay, finished draft! \o/

[the_siobhan]

Whoo hoo! First draft!

[shadaras]

Day 9: wrote a quick PH that I'd told myself I wouldn't take unless I wrote the thing first...

[the_siobhan]

Lol. Good work!

[nafs]

Day 9: lost track of time but at least ten minutes, and a page and a half. Switched scenes to get away from the panicking teenagers for a while.

[the_siobhan]

I use that trick when I get stuck on scenes. :-)

Go you!

[sanguinity]

June 8: Words!
June 9: Also words!

[the_siobhan]

Yay!

[cornerofmadness]

Day 9 900 words between the unconventional courtship and into a bar (I have that one posted)

[the_siobhan]

Great word count! Go you!

[cornerofmadness]

thanks

[yasaman]

Day 8: 210 words
Day 9: 863 words

Day 8 was frustrating because I spent most of my writing time frowning at the screen wondering where this scene should go, but then I figured it out so more progress on Day 9!

[the_siobhan]

Brain-crunching is definitely part of the writing process. Go you!

[ysilme]

I was so shocked to hear how bad the fires are, but it's some relief to hear that there was rain and it did help some. But yay for your muse being cooperative! :o)
Day 8: 745 words on the drawer project, finishing one segment
Day 9: 46 on one of the fannish WIPs. Not one I'm supposed to write currently, but a WIP all the same, so there. ;op
I also started yet another fannish organisatorial project which kept me busy for a few hours: I've been mirroring all my works on AO3 to Squidgeworld since February, and realised in the process that I stopped at some time keeping proper files of my finished fics offline. I do keep all of my works diligently backupped, but since I started using Scrivener to write I didn't keep additional docs of the finished stories complete with header and notes, just the main text, and have started to create proper story files again, including adding headers and tags to the very old one I worte and posted before the AO3 and a tag system existed. *g* I know I'm a bit OCD in that regard but I've lived through too many fan archives rising and disappearing again. Not that something of worth would be lost particularly with my early stuff, ;op but I'm still particular to it as it cost me a lot of courage to post it back then.

[the_siobhan]

I hope AO3 isn't going anywhere but it's definitely a good idea to have backups. I've resorted to just keeping my stuff in text files after Manuskript stopped working on my computer and a bunch of my files are just sitting there inaccessible.

Sounds like you did a lot of work and made good progress on your writing at the same time.

9 June -- 100ish words of prose-poetry

[the_siobhan]

Well done!

[carenejeans]

Day 8: Alibi Sentence
Day 9: Revisions and some new words...

Yay for 400 words! I hope your muse keeps smiling on you. 8-)

[the_siobhan]

Good work!

And thanks. It's always so nice when it comes easy.

[kate]

very late 100 words of meta this fine evening

[the_siobhan]

Whoo hoo! Good for you! :-)

[zero_pixel_count]

Jumping in late to June (I'd say I just got back, but to be honest I got back on the 5th, at least in body; it took a little while for the brain to follow).

Checkin for 9th June with some more of the interminable 'reverse-engineering of novel structure in hopes of eventually figuring out what's wrong with my 2nd act'
And for 10th with a slightly surprising 300-odd words on yet another new thing which occurred to me as I was falling asleep last night.

(You're in smog central I take it - much sympathy on that but yay for rain & muse-smiling.)

[the_siobhan]

Well done! And welcome back. :-)
