My check-in for day 25: 600 new words, somewhat hampered by a small furry assistant who demanded to know why I was sat with my laptop on my lap writing when I could have a cat there instead—a persuasive argument.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

From:

trobadora

Checking in for all the days from the 18th to the 25th - I forgot to check in, but I did write!

From:

regshoe

Hooray for a week of writing :D

From:

badly_knitted

Cats usually get their way in such arguments =)

May 25th - Despite being out until early afternoon, I managed 902 words, a triple and a quadruple drabble, and editing on two fics, one of which is now posted. The one I'd intended to post neded too much work, so I picked something else.

From:

regshoe

Hee, quite so! And well done—that's a lot of stuff in a busy day, and yay for a posted fic :D

From:

badly_knitted

Thanks!

(I haven't missed a day of posting in about 10 years. My mind is boggling!)

From:

regshoe

Oh wow, what a streak :O That is impressive!

From:

badly_knitted

Thanks, it was sort of a necessity because I'd wound up with a huge backlog of unposted fics, and I was still writing - still am, just not quite as much. The only way I was ever going to get everything posted was to post two or three pieces a day. It's worked, I've cut the number way down, but I've still got enough to keep posting daily for now, even if some days it's only one fic.

From:

sylvanwitch

That IS a purrsuasive argument! :-)

On Day 25, I wrote a 167-word poem about packing up my classroom for the year.

From:

regshoe

Hee! And what a good subject for a poem, well done.

From:

silveradept

Checking in for Days 22-25, progress on getting a draft done, yay, getting close to another draft, yay, and on book club and all the other writing that I do to keep my brain occupied. And putting in some conference proposals.

The persuasive argument from the furry assistant is familiar to me.

From:

regshoe

That is an excellent mix of stuff—yay for those drafts, and good work for all those days!

From:

black_bentley

Day 25 - did some reworking of bits of an exchange gift and tried to patch some plot holes. Also wrote and posted a very silly 250 word ficlet :D

From:

regshoe

Silly ficlets are great fun, yay for that—and for patching plot holes :D

From:

luzula

Wrote 400 words of new fic; total wordcount 7,700. Projected length about 10K, perhaps? When I say 'short', I mean 'not novel-length'...

From:

regshoe

Hee, short in comparison to the other stuff you've been doing :D Good progress today!

From:

sanguinity

10K is a good satisfying length, imo!

From:

philomytha

Icon love!

For the 25th, I wrote several pages longhand in my notebook.

From:

regshoe

:)

Well done for today's writing!

From:

china_shop

26th: finished the editing pass on my long fic (net 41 additional words, which disguises how much I tweaked) and sent it to beta. \o/!

From:

regshoe

Wahey, congratulations on finishing a beta-ready draft! \o/

From:

china_shop

Thanks! :D

From:

zero_pixel_count

My furry assistants like to help by standing on the keyboard...

25th May - 200-odd words on one of the short pieces I'm playing with, but no novel edits today - ran out of hours in the day, it happens...

From:

regshoe

XD This one occasionally tries to help out with the typing, but not often, thankfully...

Hours in the day are frustratingly limited for writing! Well done on those words.

From:

stonepicnicking_okapi

Cats!

300 words!

From:

regshoe

Cats indeed, and well done :D

From:

phantomtomato

May 25, checking in!

From:

regshoe

Yay, good stuff!

From:

shadaras

they rise feet up, feet up high <3

Day 25: 1k on the big bang fic. I think I've almost reached the halfway point of my outline!

From:

regshoe

<3

Good stuff, and hooray for reaching the halfway point! :D

From:

sanguinity

It's Towel Day, too!

Ah, cats! Mine doesn't try to fight the computer for lap space; instead she drapes herself across my chest, between my eyes and the screen...

Day 25: Another alibi sentence.

From:

regshoe

So it is! And aww, what a good helper :D

Well done on the alibi sentence!

From:

the_siobhan

Lots of words spread out over a bunch of different projects plus some revisions.

From:

regshoe

That sounds like a good day, well done!

From:

amedia

Day 25: I was seized by an idea for something short and saucy, so I wrote a 400-word ficlet (or tetra-drabble, if you prefer)!

Small furry assistants can be very demanding!!! :-)

From:

regshoe

Oh yay, it's so much fun when an idea just comes along like that—yay for a new tetra-drabble :D

From:

yasaman

Catching up from when I went on a short trip!

Day 22: alibi sentence
Day 23: another alibi sentence
Day 24: 55 words
Day 25: 60 words and some comment replies
