I did a tiny bit of editing today on the rough first draft of my help_japan fic. I'm just so relieved that there IS a draft, & not an abandoned file of words. Usually I need a few days off before going back for serious editing, although I really am in the mood to move forward again w/this fic now! Except when I try to I keep flitting off & doing something else--I think my brain is trying to tell me I really do need that break.

Three words: DON'T STOP NOW!

Go you! Being excited about what you're working on and in the mood to press on is half the battle, I think, so that's great to hear! I hope it keeps up for you, even if you end up taking that break. :D

Thank you!! Yeah, I was struggling to get the excitement--I was pushing ahead w/writing & just thinking, ugh, none of this feels right. I didn't have that click moment where I knew I was on the right track until recently. Phew!

Phew indeed! It's such a relief, that sort of validation-y type feeling of it finally coming together.
