Check In Post

[linaewen]

Sorry about not checking in with a check in post yesterday!  It was one of those days...

How did it go for you writers yesterday?  Were you able to accomplish something that encouraged you?  How is it going so far today?  Are you feeling hopeful about your writing prospects as we near the end of the month?  If you aren't actually making progress towards the goal you set for yourself this month, are you "keeping your hand in" by doing other writing? 

Be encouraged -- every little bit of anything related works together for good!

If you can call reports and newsletters creative writing, then that's what's happening in my neck of the woods. It's not as fun as the other kind of writing, but it's what I have to do at the moment, so the rest is on hold.

Even though I may not actually reach my goal of what I intended to accomplish this month through this challenge, I have been really encouraged by being involved with it! It's kept me focused on writing in a greater way than I had been for awhile, and that's all to the good. It has been a very long time sitting on several unfinished fics and it's hard to get the writing brain back on track when one takes a long break like that. But this is helping! My writing brain is back -- I just need free time from RL to let it do its stuff! ;-)

I'm glad the challenge has been working for you--that's really great!

I haven't written anything in the past two days. ;_; The day before that I wrote the first draft of a ficlet (it might get edited down to only a drabble, even), at least...

Little by little... (Ever have one of those stories in which you have a pretty good idea of what's going to happen, how the characters are going to interact, etc, but just can't seem to get the words out? Yeah.)

That aside, though, I have a really, really bad habit of abandoning stories, and so to have something so very nearly finished (and twice the length I set as a goal) is hugely exciting.
