Where I am: Shelving it :( I've been working on this thing on/off for years and have come to the understanding that I just don't care for it anymore... I've lost all connection to the source material and don't play the game at all now aaaand I just don't want to finish the story anymore. It's not a matter of overcoming a monotonous phase in the project, it's a complete disconnect. Alas.

Usual writing time: Um... 5-15 minutes... I rarely write for longer than that, aha... I really struggle with writing, so I'm honestly happy to achieve even those numbers.

I am planning/researching aka procrastinating. Getting started at actual writing takes me forever, but once I start writing I can make a lot of progress. I probably spend maybe 30 - 60 minutes piddling around, but then up to 3 hours actually composing and writing, and I can get it done in that amount of time -- if I can get myself to sit down and start and not just tweak the outline forever and a day!

Somewhere between writing and planning/researching. I'm coming up on writing some scenes I've been excited about, and I know the general shape of things in the outline, but there's a still a few details I'll need to research for once I start getting words down on paper. Just waiting for an opportunity when I've got a bit of downtime to focus in on writing.

Usual duration varies a lot depending on what else is going on in life, but I aim for minimum two hours when I'm able. Doesn't always work out that way though!
