Hello again!

- How is your writing/editing/etc going so far today?

- Feeling stuck? Try challenging yourself to sit down and write fifteen new words for your fic without worrying about how well they fit into the story. Even if you have to go back and remove them later, it might help unlock the words in your brain.

- Bonus: What is your favorite genre to write? What is your favorite genre to read?

I have been on a retreat and didn't get much writing done, but today I did write and it went well.

My favorite genre to write is canon-friendly alternate universe -- not sure if that is an official genre or not, but it's what I like! I like to read AU, too. I also like writing and reading gap filler.

Congrats on getting writing done! And hopefully your retreat was restful.

I love writing/reading gap filler (and episode tag) fics as well. Canon often seems to leave a lot of blank spaces for us to play around in.

Exhaustion from the weekend (and lack of sleep last night) caught up with me today, so there was no writing today. Hopefully, I'll get a bit done tomorrow.

Favorite genre to write: Slice of life superheroes! I love what seem like very "low stakes" stories in "over the top" kinds of worlds.

Favorite genre to read: The same, although I will also always read mysteries (I'm just very picky on mysteries, now, after years of over-exposure, lol).

Sorry to hear that. Exhaustion seems to constantly get in the way of writing for me, too. Hopefully you have a better day tomorrow, and hopefully you're able to catch up on some of that lost sleep.

Ooh, slice of life with superheroes is so much fun! I love reading/writing that sort of thing in fanfics. Have you read the Wayne Family Adventures webcomic? It's basically a family sitcom starring the batfamily lol. I've only read the first fifty chapters so far, but it's very fun!

What's that phrase, "I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired"? XD

Aaah, yes! Wayne Family Adventures is so cute! I need to catch up on it, too, but I enjoy it so much as a chaser after the near-constant Crises of regular canon comics. I find it like a gentle hug and an "It'll be OK" in webcomic form.
