*dance of triumph*

I may not be in the same league as a NaNoWriMo winner but I can still say that my personal challenge was a definite success. I wrote something every single day for 30 days without fail. I finally finished the epic gift fic of d00m. I added 1,000-odd words to various other WIPs. And I wrote several hundred words of a totally ( Read more... )

Only one more day to go...

Head, meet desk.

Here I was, foolishly congratulating myself because my miniwrimo challenge has achieved the intended result. I met my word goal early and finally finished the WIP of D00m, and since then I've been cracking on with a few of the dozen or so projects I've had lying around for way too long. That's what I intended to do again today, ( Read more... )

W00t, I exceeded my word goal with days to spare! I rewarded myself by watching the kittens again. There were some seriously badwrong levels of cute happening, as usual. ♥

OMG I found a KITTEN CAM!!! It is 100% guaranteed to improve your day, even if you are having the most Monday of Mondays. The kitties are just so fluffy and flaily and random and daft! ♥ When I started watching there was some epic fail involving the climbing post. Hilarity ensued! XD

I put the fairy lights up in the yard tonight. It's hard to get in the holiday spirit when it's still warm enough for short sleeves, plus I'm too broke because of the move to shop for presents. But at least I can cross getting the lights up off my to-do list.

Turns out I didn't really think things through when I started my little challenge. On the one hand I'm ahead of my word target and I finished the WIP that's been hanging over my head for two years. On the other hand I still have a week to go and now I'm struggling to squeeze out 100 words a day for any of the other stuff that is stagnating on my ( Read more... )

Aww, congratulations, Meryl and Charlie! Too bad figure skating coverage sucks in the US and I never get to see half of their performances. Maybe it's just as well--looking at Meryl always makes me feel really bad about myself. It's not fair for anyone to be so ridiculously gorgeous and talented ( Read more... )

I hope those of you on this side of the pond had a nice Thanksgiving! I pretty much ate ALL THE THINGS, and then made the mistake of having coffee with my pumpkin pie. Since there was no chance of sleeping properly after that I decided to finish the last scene of the 10K WIP of Doom. All I have to do now is edit it and I can finally cross the ( Read more... )

Oh, Chelsea, sometimes I wish I knew how to quit you ( Read more... )
