wrisomifu Update, and Yuletide

I managed half an hour of writing yesterday afternoon, was planning on doing more last night, but ultimately didn't even have the time or energy to post my update.

Word Count: -24

Yes, that's a minus. That comes of finishing a scene and deleting all the writing notes i had stuck at the end of the sucker. (See that icon? Yep, that's how I feel.)

In other news, I signed up for yuletide last night. I was going to be strategic. I created a spreadsheet, and was going to only request fandoms with a reasonable number of offers, then decided what the heck, I'll request the stories I'd really, really like, check back next week, and if no one else has offered those fandoms I'll go with some second choices.

I also ended up offering a whole bunch of fandoms. Shows and movies I love, with not too much source, that I can see writing something for. Someone actually nominated To Live and Die in L.A.! I love that movie! I could totally write 1000 words in that universe. (This Yuletide thing is kinda fun. If also terrifying.)

After spending over two hours in line with Ros for her H1N1 shot, 45 minutes of it in the cold, and then working on actual work stuff for an hour and a half tonight, I nearly gave up on doing even ten minutes of writing. But I figured what the heck, and gave it a shot.

Word count: 186

I was hoping to make it an even two hundred, but my exhausted brain gave up the ghost on me.

We're leaving tomorrow night to visit my mom up north, but I'm hoping to keep the pseudo-momentum going and keep working on the story. (I'm nearly up to the point past which I'm not sure what happens. I need a McGuffin!)
