wip challenge Tuesday July 25

[peardita]

Hello on Tuesday! What kind of a writing day has it been so far today -- or if today hasn't gotten going yet, how did you fare yesterday?

- I thought about my fic once or twice
- I wrote
- I did some planning and/or outlining
- I did research and/or canon review
- I edited
- I've sent my fic off to my beta
- I posted today!
- I'm taking a break
- I did something else that I'll talk about in a comment

Tuesday Discussion: there's record setting heatwaves going on around the northern hemisphere right now- what is your preferred way to stay comfortable while writing?

I had a long break from writing, but now I'm back! And today I wrote 320 words, did some canon review, and some editing, so I'm feeling quite productive. \o/

Woohoo!

Well, I didn't write today, but I did sign up for FFFX (which I think I can do this year??? I feel like I'm not banned???) and, honestly, that sign up is a BEAST. I poured all my pent up creativity into it and now I'm tired.

As for staying comfortable? Staying indoors, in the A/C, for as long as possible. I can't stand the heat (emotionally and physically; I'm pretty susceptible to heat damage), but I work in an outdoor environment. So anytime inside is A++.

Currently signing up for FFFX and can confirm, the sign up is a beast. Whew! At least if I hit writer's block in the future, I can revisit my sign up and find instant inspiration for some of my favorite characters and pairings.

[peardita]

oooh, that's a really smart idea!

[fleetsparrow]

...you know, it never occurred to me to recheck what I put in my sign ups for prompts. YOU ARE A GENIUS, FRIEND!!

[peardita]

congrats on getting that big signup done, totally counts!

[fleetsparrow]

Thanks!

I am getting ready to go on a trip, so the only thing I wrote on Tuesday was reports and work related stuff. My plan for writing today will be to gather everything I need to do my writing in a different location while I am on vacation!

If I have air moving in my room, I am good to go, so a fan is nice.

[peardita]

gathering writing things for a trip totally counts! I hope the trip goes great!

Getting some writing done, signing up for fffx. Hoping to knock out more words today than I did yesterday but we'll see. I had a lot going on from Fri-Mon and I'm still catching up on life, so I'm giving myself a little grace.

[peardita]

giving yourself some grace is an important part of writing!
