Writing win!

 
I have managed to write over 1,000 words every day this week since Sunday! I think this might be my most "productive" week all year. 

A huge part of that is the writing I've been doing for Wyrd Times. It is ... rather a lot of write-up. And this was our last week doing it, so I feel like I can breathe a bit more now. 

I just did the math and I am ... 16,513 words past my target for the year to date. *happy dance*

Mental health has been Extremely Bad lately, so I took today off for my mental health. Ended up writing a TON of my Drarry WIP, as well as editing and doing a lot of work on the plot structure and outline of the story itself. Oh! And characterization. 

Honestly, fandom is so healing for me. It's something that I have fun with that has nothing to do with my work, and adds this whole rich layer to my life. I know it's a little silly, but we all need some of that silly stuff in our lives. It's ok to have some harmless fun. 

The thing I am NOT looking forward to is brainstorming a new title for the fic. Since I decided that it would be solely from Draco's POV, "Ain't No Grave" doesn't actually make any sense anymore, as that was mainly about Harry. Maybe I'll write a post about that. Titles are so hard. I could do another song title, but I'm not sure what it would be. Nothing feels quite right. 

That is a problem for another day - I won't begin posting until I've finished the whole thing, in case I need to go back and do some major story editing. But I feel like I'll be banging this out fairly quickly, now that I've axed Harry's POV.

I think that's all for now. More posts about actual life things happening later.
