Write Every Day Day 4

[cornerofmadness]

Never thought of it that way but it's a great way of looking at it.

So how it is going? Day three was all about editing for me. I got my original short in shape enough for the beta reader to look at it.


If I've missed you on the tally let me know.

4th: an hour of editing on my WIP, and a lot of meta comments. :-)

[cornerofmadness]

yay for editing

[brithistorian]

Day 3: 943 words on "Turning of the Year." Apparently all my efforts yesterday at shifting the focus of this chapter were for naught—all the characters want to keep focusing on the subplot I was trying to shift things away from. I guess I'm just going to have to let them work things out. There are events coming up before the end of the season (once completed, the fic will be 4 seasons of 7 chapters each. I'm currently in the 3rd chapter of the 3rd season) that should shift some of the focus elsewhere, but it's also entirely possible that this subplot will overtake those events as well.

Excellent word count. Yeah sometimes you just have to write it all out before they'll move on. And then keep or cut later

[brithistorian]

Exactly. And since I tend to write stories with large casts, everyone has a things going on all the time, but some characters' plots just affect themselves, plus maybe one or two others, and some characters' plots affect practically everybody, so it can be a balancing act sometimes.

[cornerofmadness]

I feel ya. Many of many fandoms (and my original stuff too) has tons of characters. Sometimes I send them off on side quests to par it down

On Day 4, we had an Adulting appointment at 9, and I had to input my grades, and then I have afternoon proctoring followed by a meeting with the principal. I am tired of being a grown-up. *sighs* But, I did write 228 words on a story that I may or may not continue. It was a fun exercise, anyway.

[cornerofmadness]

gotcha and I feel ya. I'm doing the assessment reports right now and trying to get books for fall ordered and I'm about to tear out my hair.

Checking in for day 3+4. Still sick, still just about managing some alibi sentences. But I also started to catch up with some older fic to read and wrote a few short reviews yesterday and today.

Never thought of it that way but it's a great way of looking at it.
I agree! That's a great quote.
Go you for editing and getting that fic in shape!

[cornerofmadness]

Ugh to that. Hope you kick the sick soon.

Gotcha on the alibi sentences.

It's a really cool quote

[goddess47]

Wrote and posted a drabble!
