I've got that odd sort of in-between feeling where you don't quite know whether life is totally effing brilliant or downright suck-ish.  On one hand, I had very little homework tonight and no choir, and we had cherry pie at tea, but on the other hand my back is still killing me, I feel sort of sick and slightly overwhelmed by internet!life atm.  I' ( Read more... )

Total snap on the swamped feeling. I have so many internet commitments, it gets incredibly stressy at times. It kinda sucks because they should be fun, but they're not when they're stressing me out.

The way I'm dealing with big bang is I broke it down. I figured out if I write at least 150 words, which is completely manageable, every day, I will finish in time. As soon as I get a chance each day, I write down those 150 words and I can relax about that and worry about my other commitments. The good thing about have such a low target each day? I get a nice little proud feeling when I go over that, even if I only write 200 words.

I did the exact same method during NaNo, breaking it down and aiming for a small amount each day, and managed to complete the 50k goal in 15 days, even with school.

Wow. 50k in 15 days? That's really impressive. I did 30k in 30 days, which I found hard enough as November's a really busy month for me -- did you actually sleep at all during those 15 days? :-P

I'm doing that I have a week for each chapter, which will be 2,000 words, as well as a week for planning them. :-) I'll do the spn_j2_bigbang first, then the novel_bigbang as the deadline is later on the ofbb. :-D

And it's a real shame when funtime turns into worktime. :-/ I wouldn't say that I have masses, but I like to at least read all my flist's posts, even if I don't comment, and I feel like I'm letting them down by not doing so. :-/ I also feel like, as I'm drifting more into SPN fandom, I'm kinda deserting my TW buddies. :-( (And on a random note, I totally just pouted when I typed that sad face. I'm weird like that. xD)

Hey! I hope that feeling of yours slips over towards brilliant. *nudges it a little, sneaky like* That pie sounds good. : )
