Monday blahs

Last year I was "Monday"!anon. It's almost Monday here, so I maybe want to reach out again and hold myself accountable. I double-matched with my recip, and want to write in both fandoms; I also have an non-Yule WIP (ideally due by the end of this month, eep) in one of the fandoms, and there's another treat I really have my eye on. Canon review went well, but I'm worried that I won't be able to stick to writing time amid RL work/other games through the coming weeks.

Anyway, once I buckled down tonight, I was able to knock out the first 1k for one of my assignments, and in the worst-case scenario I could make it a complete fic without too much more angsting. Just...hold my hands and me accountable, plz?

Congrats and pompoms to the nanoers, you brave souls!

Good luck, Monday!

Do you have more chunks of time blocked out for writing like that?

I started off with NaNo goals but have abandoned them. My current goals are: a draft of my assignment and two treats done by the end of November. YES, ROUGH DRAFTS, SELF.

We can do this!

Not very regimentedly, no. Hoping late tonight will be open for another decent stint, though! :)

We've got nanos at all sorts of pledge levels, nonny... you could always try to nano for the rest of the month at whatever level is comfortable for you. Go forth and write!
