Heading back in to work this morning feels pretty bad, not going to lie. I'm starting to feel like I'm constantly stumbling from day off to day off so that I can make the art I want to make between being paid far too little

I got off work a little early, did some writing, and had a very nice evening hanging out with my partner after dinner. Definitely needed tonight after having such a stressful goddamn two months 😌

Maybe, when considering your audience on Ao3, you should not treat other fic writers as competition and start treating your readers' lives as being in tension with your writing. If your writing does not win out over someone's other choices to spend their free time, they'll do something else. /1

Took the day off work today for an absolutely ass-kicking headache, managed to rid myself of it by sleeping, so I'm spending the rest of the day working on some stuff that's bringing me a lot of joy (robots kissing)

One fic over 50k and I'm committing acts of hubris in my word count tracker

I think I'm probably going to make it big this year on the word count. Just shy of 400k written. Of that, ~175k is posted, with probably another 100k of nearly completed rough drafts sitting in my WIP folders.

Sharing the final version of my BB fic's tracker before I archive it. This was purely for goal setting; I had a separate detailed outline and a small personal style guide for editing so I didn't drive myself off the deep end trying to remember what terminology I was using

I love being hounded for writing feedback and then, when I give a very gentle "this could be interesting here" type of suggestion, getting an essay back about why that wouldn't work for your story. Just skip it then. A beta isn't holding you by the throat and demanding you change your story. 😔

October is normally my favorite month but this year it's been nothing but absolute shit for me this year. I've got to go for a procedure in a couple weeks that's necessary but also $2k AFTER my ins coverage. Ironically, I'd pay less if I had no job at all.

I've been trying to post a fic for three days and things just keep coming up. Fingers crossed I'll have time tonight after work to actually get this uploaded

maybe it's only because I'm up so goddamn early but if you're going to persistently and publicly dunk on people for doing something maybe you should make an effort to at least be correct about what you're hating on

This weekend is going to be the last big cleanup/revision push for my big bang fic before the 100% draft submission deadline on the 17th. I'm hoping to keep doing proofreading up until the posting deadline (we all know there will be typos) but once this is done that's ~52k off my plate
