Nice! definitely sounds like something you'll be able to use.

Good work! Betaing for someone who's not a native English speaker can be difficult--especially if you don't want to lose the author's voice!

Frankly, I look at that word count and it looks like speeding to me :D I think we all just have our own way of working, I'm not sure to what extent it's possible to change those habits.

Multi-tasking, eh? Good for you :)

You never run out of ideas! Hope this will be a very productive month for you.

Thank you:) I'm glad you enjoyed it. Writing spooky stories is fun!

Yup I asked about it. I sent you a note right before this, so you should have it now.

Sounds like a great start! And already having a good idea for Yuletide is fantastic.

You're allowed extra sleep after all of that :) Sounds like you're going to have a very productive pico!

I try. :)

Oh yes, that makes sense! It's been my main fandom since I watched it last... November, December? Wow, how has it been a year already, 2020 really has just breezed by.

Thank you! And I hope so, too. Even as is, it's already been far more productive than I could have expected. I have barely written anything at all this year, compared to the previous years.

Yay for chapter finished!

Templating is good (speaketh someone who has shamelessly ripped off Dickens more than once :)

I've managed to polish and add a little but I thik this is going to be a very short flash anyway...

[identity profile] sallymn.livejournal.com 2020-11-02 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I've done similar lines for mouth and hands, so as to try and create a shadow monster in her room :)

It's simply going to be a mood piece flash unless inspiration for a twist comes, but that's okay :)

I have a few very faint stains from the damage earlier this year but they're barely visible so we will wait till we're ready to repaint. But I think that's where I got the idea....

[identity profile] sallymn.livejournal.com 2020-11-02 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I like spooky, though I can't write really big horror :(

[identity profile] sallymn.livejournal.com 2020-11-03 12:00 am (UTC)(link)
It's very small, but so will the whole piece be :) I have decided that short is my thing, really.

[identity profile] sallymn.livejournal.com 2020-11-03 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
I think so, it'll just take some thinking :)

[identity profile] sallymn.livejournal.com 2020-11-03 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
Of course it counts! Beta is hard work and very generous, I'm sure she deeply appreciates it :)

Good luck!

It does sound like that it your comfortable speed, so that's good.
