murgle

For your reading pleasure, I have just deleted my original text for this entry, which was entirely about my crappy sleep patterns for the last week and a half, my headaches from needing a new pair of prescription glasses, and whining about matters I can't/shouldn't publicly whine about.

Instead, I will have my one contented thought for the day, which is that I have somehow hit 30k on the new fic, in spite of crappy sleep patterns, headaches, and whining.

I am beginning to hope that I might possibly have the ability to continually string words together as an occupation. Sadly enough, having this ability will do very little, as that sort of thing is nearly completely up to outside forces, but it's weirdly comforting somehow.

I think I'm averaging 1000 to 2000 words per day. Except for that week where I was horrendously busy and put in very long hours.

I am both incredibly proud of you and terribly jealous. ;-)

Hope the crappy stuff gets better soon. *hugs*

I'm a little breathless! I can't believe how quickly it progresses when all of the ducks are in a row. :)

And I hope it gets better soon, too. If I can just get through today, I'll have the whole weekend to regain my balance. *crosses fingers*

I can only sit and stare at your word count in amazement.

*sits and stares*

And I send you hugs to protect you from the evil forces of crappy sleep and headaches.

*HUGS*

I am just lucky right now--when my brain is stuck in an idea, it likes to go forward full force. As long as the plot is worked out in my head, and I'm not stuck in a horrible sentence, I can go ahead.

And thank you so much for the hugs!!

Dude, this is really turning into a h/c extravaganza! Srsly.

And I hope that the besetting falls away. We need more yummy fic, especially from you!!!

Your daily word output is something I can only dream of. =D

Maybe because possible is, just by definition, more comforting than impossible?

This morning, while reading the flist and catching up on eBay and chatting with [livejournal.com profile] little_tristan, I somehow managed to get another 1800 words out. Dude. I am so loving this. I hope it lasts!

Yes, that's it entirely! *nodnod* :)
