Win!

I went through a period where I would break my operating system attempt to install Linux on my iMac G5 PPC. While it appeared to accomplish nothing (especially not the Linux install), I was later able to work on the writing I was stuck on.

I LOVE AERO SNAP. IT IS MY FAVORITE THING EVER. I DO NOT KNOW HOW I SURVIVED WITHOUT IT.

(sorry, /capslock, but isn't it awesomeness of awesome indeed?)

More words! Now to see if they actually mean anything. I mean, a brain-dump of characterization thinly disguised as fic is progress, if only b/c it continues to help me sort out what about these characters I want to highlight & what I want them to do in the fic. But less psychology now, more fic, please, o brain!

I got a little writing done so that I could get a 'daily fic' streak on again, but today is one of those days when I see nothing good in anything I do, so it wasn't very focused writing. I will try something more constructive tomorrow.

In the meanwhile yay, I made it to a check-in! \o/

Well I gained about 300 w today. But I think I'll be 'recycing' a 1000 I already wrote: seems as though I broke the remix rules by going beyond the plot of the original. I'll have to see whether I can edit so its 'bending' rather than breaking.

I had better go study those pesky guidelines

Actually, it may be a blessing in disguise. It gets me around an awkward moment. And the bits I've written then they can perhaps be over the phone or in going on in people's heads.

You can set the remix after the canon's time line with reference to story's event. If you're unsure, read the guideline and the mod's answers're always good.

200 words on the remix today, and 300 till minimum word count!! I call it a win!

Oh, also! I got my [livejournal.com profile] queer_fest claim approved today! Since the weather was really nice, I went for two walks and played Tetris in my head about the story.

I procrastinated by editing an older fic prior to uploading it to AO3 (which was good; I fixed some stuff that had been bugging me for a long time). I also had some plumbing issues today, so I am going to blame my dishwasher for messing up my good writing time this morning.

Fail day! :(

Thanks! I managed to avoid floods, fixed it myself, and things are working today (turned out to be a sink problem overflowing into the dishwasher so all it really required was judicious use of a plunger). Of course these things happen on Sundays. XD

Yeah, I always feel good when I can put a little extra polish on something older and get it up onto AO3. Hoping for some new words today.

(Also, congrats on the Linux wrangling! I haven't used it much lately, but I remember how gratifying it always was to get something tricksy working just right!)

Sorry! I'm new and forgot to check in! It's not quite habit yet! D:

Wrote about 9K yesterday. It was pretty raw and nothting to brag about but hope to fix it in the month or so of editing I get. I also hope to match it today. Maybe I'll finish this big bang after all! /o/
