At the beginning of the year I was making sure to write a thousand words a day, even though sometimes I had to count journal posts and emails, when I didn't work on actual fanfiction. But around May I started to lose it. Hopefully NaNo will have gotten me back in the habit. ^_^
Sounds like a good habit!
Ooh, yay, "Inception" fic!! *waves pom poms* Good luck with that!! I swear, most of my fic lacks focus and tends to become character studies - or at least it seems that way. I don't see anything wrong with that!Most authors almost need to do something like that when they first start writing for a new fandom. ^.^
The thing is, I love character studies. I love reading them and I want to write them, but when I sit down to do so, my brain goes "No, you have to have an actual PLOT/STORY in there, see, with a proper STRUCTURE or there's no point" and then I obsess and get all perfectionistic and it takes ages and then I give up. But this time I won't! Give up, I mean. I think.
Boooo, I'm sorry! But that's six in the evening? So hopefully most of the insanity will be over? *crosses my fingers for you* I was seasonal at Circuit City one year and worked 15 hours as a greeter. =.=;;
Erf. One can only hope. And 15 hours as a greeter?? That sounds like a nightmare!
