Brick in the Wall

I don't know about others, but I've been finding this third week tough going. (Like I'd hit the wall.) espresso_addict made me feel better by the simple trick of subtracting my wordcount from the total (I can't believe I didn't think of this!). So now it's a countdown rather than a count-up, and it all feels a lot more achievable. Good vibes to you all.

Glad it helped, altariel1!

Well... I have stopped my wordcounting at all, because I am pretty sure that between the unfinished Donna/Ivan piece and the Novella That Ate My Life, I am well over 5000 words.

BTW, I think everyone should post a link to their finished work whenever they finish it...

For myself, I keep hitting walls. And what's *really* been helping, is reading the many encouraging posts of others doing Pico, as they struggle with their inner demons. So thankyou guys! :)

I'm finding this tough going now I'm past halfway too. But everyday there's a post asking for updates and I feel guilty when I don't have one. Then read everyone else's comments and that inspires me to write more.
