Another 400 or so words, but mostly answering e mails today...

Granddaughter is napping. I took a 20 minute break, then settled in and got in over an hour on the WIP. Putting the finishing touches on a couple of scenes, then I'm at the final scene, which is in first draft shape, but I still hope to finish the story by this pico's end:)

400 words is great in my world:) Good going!

Have a lovely weekend!

400 words is great!

Go you! I'll keep my fingers firmly crossed that you manage to finish the story during this session.

I've added one more page to Chapter 16, so it is now officially finished. I'm not entirely happy with the last scene, but I might rewrite it while typing up.
I've got a firm idea how Chapter 17 should go. Still stuck with the second half of Chapter 14, though. *sigh*

Words are words!

[adafrog.livejournal.com]

Great.

[adafrog.livejournal.com]

Too bad. Good luck with the rewrite.

I noodled around all day reading something I wrote 10 years ago. (Actually it was pretty good - I am surprised, as I hadn't read it since!) But then made myself open the Word document and at least write something, about 10.30 pm (Thank goodness for Pico!). And I realise that now, at 12.15, there are another 800 words or so written. And the character has made up her mind about something that even I wasn't sure about until I began to type!

Go you!

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

It is surprising how much you can do in an hour, if the ideas are here!

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

I hate it when there is something that is sticking. I admire your ability to move past that point and carry on with the story - I find I just grind to a halt and don't get anywhere until I can make the stuck bit work.

Wrote 200 words on a new fic idea today! This one with soulmarks. I might work a little more on the bed & breakfast AU tonight, but since I sent the long fic off to beta today, I'm letting myself take it easy.

[candidlily.livejournal.com]

Good work! 400 words is great!

[candidlily.livejournal.com]

Excellent progress! You can do it!

[candidlily.livejournal.com]

I know how that can be. Keep at it and eventually your brain will work through the earlier stuff. Good luck!

[candidlily.livejournal.com]

That's excellent! Sometimes revisiting old work can be helpful.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I found I could enjoy it as a good read because I no longer knew every word of it!

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Well done! Hurrah for getting the long fic off to your beta, and on starting something new. I find those opening words can be really difficult to get down.

[spikesgirl58.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I'm trying to keep the pace up.

You, too! Hope it cools down a bit for you!

[spikesgirl58.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I would have loved a bit more, but it was that sort of day.

[spikesgirl58.livejournal.com]

Yes, yes they are. :D

[spikesgirl58.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[spikesgirl58.livejournal.com]

Thanks! It was just a drop in the bucket, but at least it was something.
