“I try to create sympathy for my characters, then turn the monsters loose.” – Stephen King

I like that quote. Today was awful so this is late. I need to get to bed. I got 131 words on that second spook me story which isn't really spooky. It's more family dinner...with cannibals.


How is it going for you? Let know and if i forgot you somewhere along the way let me know and as a reminder on the 16th we'll be heading to china_shop's blog to continue this month

I'm heading out to an anime con so I might be slow to update everything. In honor of that have an Alastor quote as a writing prompt. Have a character who is hiding something with a smile? Is is a sincere one?

I managed to get 2100 words today (instead of packing or cleaning) and almost finished one of my spook_me stories in a new to me fandom

It was my author zoom meeting on the 7th and I write really well if there's a support group (read competition) just a little more than 2400 for the night.

What I like about this quote is that it's inclusive. Even if all we want to do is write fanfic and have no desire to write original fiction (which is absolutely a fine choice) that we can be proud of ourselves and know that our stories are out there touching someone

I am struggling to find motivation for anything. Sigh. I only got about 230 words on a story and 2 book reviews done.

Ugh I meant to do more with these other than the tally but I'm barely keeping up with that this week. How did we do? I got about 1900 on day 3, finished cleaning up and posting two fandomgiftbasket stories and did more work on the fandomtrumpshate story

If I forgot you, let me know and let me know what day you're checking in for

I will put up the tally later in the day. Sorry. I didn't return from the hospital until nearly midnight and my arms are full of IV holes.

As for me an alibi sentence and a lot of planning on the long drive. How about you? How did you fare today

Usually zwei_hexen does this around half way through and I meant to but this month has been on fire. So why not at the end(ish) Let's see what you've been working on all month if you want to share. The rules of the game are lifted directly from zwei_hexen's usual post.

Do you have a passion project, not-so-guilty pleasure, hot obsession, or slow-burn romance with a fandom? Newest fics you posted? Chapter updates? If so, would you share it with us? Whether it's a 300K WiP or a double drabble, please feel free to leave us a link to it in the comments.

A few simple considerations:

Age restrictions and content warnings: Please keep in mind this journal is public and has no content warning. For your convenience, we've put in an age restriction to this post only, so you can also post headers and summaries to more mature-rated stories. However, please put in warnings if what you share might contain possible triggers and put any mature and/or NSFW content (images, text examples, etc.) behind a text link only, to keep this journal a safe place to visit for everybody.

Comment size, images and headers: As cuts don't work on comments, please crop/downsize images to 600 pix max for the longest side and limit text samples to about 20 lines. If you post an AO3 header with a wall of tags, please limit them to about 4 lines here and indicate that there are more.

For ease of browsing, please name your fandom in the subject line of your comment and consider making different comments for each fandom you’re sharing, if you’d like.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them here or to drop a note to cornerofmadness

We’re looking forward to seeing what you’ve been working on! Also, please check out the older rec-your-work posts you can find under the link on the top right of the journal; we try to keep the fandom tags updated on these entries for your convenience.

In July we’ll be jumping to nafs blog to continue WED, just FYI

Wrote a surprise sequel for my power play series and edited and posted the next chapter in Dandelions, for a total of 1973 words

Let me know what day you’re reporting in for. If I've missed you on the tally let me know. Feel free to jump in at any time.
