How’s It Going:
The end is near, he says, then literally writes the ending the next day. *shrugs*
Just a smidge over 5k short of 50k, but that’s nothing new for me, apparently. The good news is, I can let this sit for almost two months before I dig in with the revision on Jan 1st.
What do I do with myself for almost two months while I wait? Obviously, I’ll need to print this sucker out, get all my ducks in a row, and be ready to revise. Except, I’m an idiot and it turned out like half the stuff I needed was still at my dad’s (i.e. binders, hole punch, file folders, you know, the basics), so I had to go out there earlier to grab it. Luckily I looked before printing the MS out yesterday because I do not currently have a safe place to put a stack of 290 loose pieces of paper. Such is the life of having a destructive puppy, a moody cat, and a partner that hates clutter in a one-bedroom apartment. So I just finished printing it out, and I’ll start hole punching here in a bit. Which takes forever because I have one of those cheap plastic things that only goes through like 3 sheets at a time. *headdesk*
But besides that, I’m gonna do some kind of writing as well. Holly Lisle (stop giggling) has a free class on flash fiction that I poked through once before but never completed anything, so I’ve been dabbling with that yesterday and today. No goals (except to write at least something on my usual writing days), this is just for funsies. Maybe something cool will come out of it, but I just need some space and time to play outside of the TAP world with characters I’m not intimately familiar with yet. Cause I know I’ll be back to it in no time.
