each one a line or two

I have been doing something rather odd lately: writing on paper instead of typing. I blame the endless train rides. :) It slows down the process, because I have to re-write it all once I get back home, but it's kind of fun to take those couple of hours where I am just sitting, listening to my iPod and staring at the landscape and turn them into something useful. Are any of you guys writing, btw?

Je suis en train de travailler sur beaucoup de contes différents. Voilà.

-Dissertation. "The Duchess of Malfi: from text to performance." (working title)

10/40 pages. 25% done.
Talked at length (2 hours!) with my supervisor yesterday and was pleased to discover something: not once did he correct my grammar. He chided my use of "tormenting" instead of "vexing", inverted the word order twice because it was unclear what I had meant to say... And he specifically told me that the sentences he hadn't touched weren't some consolatory prize, he had really liked them! *g*

--Draco Big Bang. Draco/Asteria... well, sort of.

362/1000? words. 36.2% done.
I'm boning up on plants, but aside from that I'm basically writing about what I know best. Personal experience FTW!

---Reverse Challenge. Draco/Hermione, as if that's even a surprise.

418/2000? words. 20.9% done.
Can't say a thing about this one! Oh, wait, I can tell you that it's inspired by fanart and by a classic novel I had to study for my English Lit class. ;)

----Holy Devil: chapter 28. Blaise/Hermione.

1279/5000 words. 25.6% done.
Slowest chapter in the making since my hiatus. I am being lazy about it.

ETA: This made me lol so much! XD
