I wrote today! I stopped halfway through a sentence that I now have no idea what I was going for, but writing did occur!!

[vriddy]

Writing occurred \o/ May a new sentence come to replace the mysterious unfinished one :)

[mistressofmuses]

Haha, I have done that to myself - stopping mid-sentence!

Always an adventure to come back to it after a while and wonder what I was going for, lol.

Congrats on the writing!

Oooh a familiar name hosting the check-in 😍💕 I edited this morning! I managed to do 2 pages when I only managed half a page over the last few days, so feeling pretty good about my progress :)

[mistressofmuses]

:D I keep saying I want to participate more in comms, and this is one I've appreciated over the last several years.

Congrats on the editing! Even a half page is good, but two pages is great!

I am taking a break from my schedule of writing (nonfiction) blog articles. My poor fic WIP is being neglected, but I think I will try to resurrect it today since the blog articles are not eating my brain and taking up all my writing time!

[mistressofmuses]

Writing as a job (or schoolwork, or for any other pressing reason) can definitely leave you with not a whole lot of time or energy left to put into other writing. So congrats on the break from the blog articles, and hopefully it'll give you some opportunity to work on your WIP!

[linaewen]

Looks like it will take more than one day to get going with that WIP, but I am determined to bring it back to life!

[mistressofmuses]

You can definitely revive it! (Even if it does take a bit of time to get back into the swing with it.)

[vriddy]

WIP time! I hope the resurrection went well :D

[linaewen]

I poked at the WIP yesterday but it was reluctant to wake up, so I will keep trying!

[blackiceboba]

I added about 400 words and got past the climax/big confession scene so now I am. . .going to figure out what happens next. I didn't plot out past this point. But still progress was made.

[mistressofmuses]

Ooh, congrats on getting past The Big Moment!

Though I feel you - sometimes it's a struggle to figure out where to go from there!

[vriddy]

Oooh that is really cool!!! Congrats, and good luck :D

Getting my final chapter of my current WIP ready to post!
Now I just need to reread and edit it for character voice, for consistency, for pacing, reread while pretending I'm a reader reading it for the first time to make sure everything is comprehensible and highlighting more things to edit, reread and edit again just to make sure...
...I don't think I'm actually going to be posting today. Ha.

[mistressofmuses]

Hooray! Congrats on the final chapter!

Though aaaaaah, the pain of that final edit, especially when the story is coming to a close. Good luck!

[vriddy]

Ooooh super exciting milestone, good luck!


.......yeah good luck, this part is tough 😱
