Keep tapping those keys! The second day of a writing challenge is when you can either say "wow, I'm on schedule! I'm maybe ahead of schedule!" or sometimes, "well, at least I'm not very far behind."

Discussion topic: Changing Plots. How strictly do you try to stick to your original plotline? Do you push to get the characters back on track, or just let them do whatever seems to come to mind? If they wander far from the original plan, do you keep the original plotbunny and try to use it later? When you want to get the story focus back, do you have any techniques you use--talk with beta, re-watch canon, watch that vid that inspired the fic in the first place?

I've been sorting out some plot-tangles in "Pieces". And don't even get me started on changing plots; my brain will strangle me if I try to talk about that right now.
