argentnoellethat was fun :) we won't get to finish it till sunday though...
Other news: work stuff is going on; two articles I wrote came out (yay!) & one is impressive [although kind of boring]. The other one I really like :) I have mostly so far managed to stick to my plan & have been consequently feeling actually somewhat better! <3 also so many emails... I hate emails...
[except for Dracula Daily. I did that this year on tumblr & it was so fun. I've read Dracula like 3 times(?) before that but it was even better with the book club]
this far-too-long fanfic I'm writing is slowly creeping its way toward being finished. Now that Nanowrimo is over it's harder to get the motivation to write every day, but I'm doing it little by little... I had real trouble with one specific chapter that I had to write and then edit and change the direction on three separate times because I wasn't happy with where it was going; it's an important bit/turning point so it needed a lot of extra thought. But now that bit is over and the next part fingers crossed will be a little easier—also I'm super excited for the next arc (which is the last or the second-to-last one in the story, depending on how I count it).

Date: 2022-12-11 10:38 pm (UTC)(Psst, even though you're trying to get rid of emails... would you like to sign up to read another classic novel? I made one called Voyage of the Nautilus, for 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea... It started in November but there's a break coming up so you'd have time to catch up...)
Oh man, I feel you on the NaNoWriMo writing!! I started writing (well, re-writing) a very long fanfic for NaNo myself this year. But mine is nowhere close to being done yet (although I did win). Hope the rest of the writing goes well!

I hope your Nano story goes well too! yeah, I did so well during November and then the holidays came around and my writing went down... today is the first chance I've gotten in a whole week to write due to family stuff and I barely wrote 500 words... :/ I'm kind of exhausted so I said well that's good enough anyway
originally i was trying to finish the story by the end of this year but I overestimated my ability to write in decemberno subject
Date: 2022-12-18 11:43 pm (UTC)Thanks! I definitely get that, the holidays are a busy time. And 500 words is definitely good enough, if you're exhausted. I'd say it's more important to take care of yourself than to meet a deadline.
