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.

Posting here for posterity and accountability! [community profile] getyourwordsout

  is doing a 7 stories in 7 days challenge next week. I've been lagging a bit on my wordcount for the year, so I figured the extra fun of the community would help me. Plus I really want to start getting my podcast going, so I need to start getting more of the words actually down. 

I'm going to have one "float" day, in case I have a bad pain flare up or something and need to take a day off the typing.


Day 1: Next essay in my book
Day 2: Transcript for the first podcast episode
Day 3: Exercises for Day 1 essay
Day 4: Transcript for second podcast episode
Day 5: Write novel summaries for plotting purposes (Using NaNoWriMo NaNo-Prep Course)
Day 6: Write next essay in book

Today's writing goals:
 

Write ad copy for the new offering with Lacey (Self Care for Wyrd Times)
Finish my patreon post about the Primstav

What I REALLY want to do? Make more face masks. And it's way better to do that during the day when there's better natural light, so I think I'll go do that now.
