Okay, if you've read these posts for a long enough time, you know that I've been on a healing journey. I've been working really hard on fixing a lot of my issues. Now, my world is starting to fall apart around me. I don't feel like getting into it, to be honest. Because it's not the point. It's a lot of crap that I would...

Not sure what lit the fire, but I just finished a sixth chapter. Something like 6000 words written in just three days. I know it could be better, but I'm happy with the sudden process.
Gods... Imagine the progress I'd make if I wrote for more than just an hour or two a day.
I think the grand total word count is just under 40k....

Working on a fifth chapter now. The writing has been going fairly well the last couple of weeks. And I'm getting closer to connecting it to the existing material that I've already written. My protagonists have finally met each other, so I think it'll be easier to write for the time being. That setup was killing me. The fact that I've begun to really lean...

You're an evil man, @fredhincanada but I think you knew that already... Our man Fred created this one, then nominated me as one of his victims.
1. Favorite fictional villainess?
Tell us about her. Well, at first I drew a complete blank. The only one who came to mind was Hela, but that might just be because I like Cate Blanchett. Thinking for a bit...

I'm not sure how to start this. The end of the year was rough. I don't think I ever realized how very draining the holidays are for me. I don't know, maybe I just assumed it was seasonal depression being added to the usual depression? The expectations of having to go to family events, the stress of having to deal with more people when you...

So, I've been doing a decent job of writing most days for the last couple of weeks. Not always a lot, but on occasion I have a good run. Not the point. I decided today to look at what I've got written at this point. I'm up to a good 30000+ words. The average words per page has that come out to around 80-100 pages...

I think I actually finished the beginning of my story. That might not mean much to some of you, but to others, you might know how much that means. It's just a small step, of course, in the grand scheme. But somehow, it was also a massive hurdle to get over. Still a lot of work to go, but there's a starting point now.
Is it weird that, as I'm sitting here writing (My new beginning is slowly getting there, about five pages at this point.) I kind of want some company? I wish I had someone here with me, not to talk to, not as a distraction. Just for the company. Normally I want absolute isolation to write. Hell, it's necessary most of the time. But for whatever...
