Write Every Day: Day 1

Check-in post for 1 May! Please say what day you're checking in for, to avoid confusion about timezones.

Welcome to the new month, and happy May Day (for folklore reasons, labour movement reasons or—clearly the most important reason of all—because tonight is the anniversary of That Night in the Hut from Flight of the Heron). As we go into the new month, have you got any particular writing goals or ambitions for May?


Tally for the month so far:

Day 1: [personal profile] china_shop, [personal profile] regshoe


My check-in: Some plot planning for the next chapter of my Flight of the Heron/Kidnapped crossover longfic, and started writing with 300 new words. For the last few months I've been averaging just under two chapters a month, and I'm only just starting a new chapter now and at a point where the plot is getting a bit complicated, so I'm going to set myself the smaller goal of finishing one more chapter this month and see where that gets me.

Day 1

Yay for your work on your longfic, and best of luck reaching this month's goal! *cheering you on*

I took out a Guardian fic that I was working on before another one grabbed my brain and jumped the queue, as fics sometimes do. Today I refamiliarized myself with it, made a bunch of minor changes, and added 68 new words. I also wrote one AO3 comment.

ETA: This month I hope to revise a fic that my beta-reader has just finished going over, polish (if there's time) and post a fic of which I have a complete first draft for a fic exchange, and finish the one I mention above. Or at least get some more work done on it!
