Challenge Accepted
There's a meme which occasionally goes around my tumblr which details the motivations for one's actions, an overwhelming percentage of which is spite.
A couple days ago I got an anonymous comment from ff.net on my RotG fic "Shadowlands." Which is one chapter from completion and has been so since Christmas 2014. (Yes, four years. I have two little boys; stringing narrative sentences together is hard with energetic distractions under 4'.)
The comment concluded "even tho, ya know, this is never getting updated ever again and whatever".
...
O NO U DIDN'T.
The gauntlet has been thrown.
Challenge accepted, bitch.
387 words, or roughly a fifth of the chapter, written last night.
Spite is indeed a powerful motivator.
