July WIP Challenge: Day Nine Check In

[lexicalcrow]

It's day nine, fellow writers, and the weekend is half over. Has your Saturday been as busy as mine? Did you manage to get more than a dismal paragraph written?

Today, I have done:
- Writing
- Editing
- Sent fic to beta
- Post
- Planning and/or research
- Procrastinate
- Something else I will describe in comments.

Today it's time for a general fic chat post: How's the WIP progressing? Are you looking for a beta? Want to post a snippet of your WIP? Have other fic-related things you want to chat about? Are you getting what you need out of the community to help you with your writing? Tell us about your progress.

I managed to force out another 400 words so far today, plus I did a bunch of editing on a portion that was already written. It's a bit like pulling teeth for some reason, in spite of it being a very conducive day for working on fic. Of course, I did procrastinate and get distracted a few times, so that also added to a lower word count.... ;-) I'm trying to get myself psyched up to see if I can at least break 1,000 words today, since this is my last good chance to write uninterrupted for a bit.

I'm getting a bit concerned, in that my deadline for having my Big Bang completed and submitted is in exactly three weeks. *gulp* And of course, this next week in RL is probably THE busiest week to date, so I can't really plan on having an effective writing week. Guess that means I need to burn the midnight oil tonight! Even so, I'm encouraged to see that I have 10k words towards my 20k minimum, so if I don't waste any time and the Muse doesn't desert me, I should be okay!
