Round 25, Hour 23

[dbskyler.livejournal.com]

Welcome to Hour 23! How's everything_rush going for you?

My goal of doing the dishes is still unaccomplished. Fortunately, I still have lots of time, especially if I am willing to eat take-out for dinner tonight. Which, strangely enough, I am. :D

Any progress on your maniacal and not-so-maniacal goals?

I have certainly not been trying to escape from my cell, since I'm not imprisoned at all, not one little bit. No, I've been having lunch and shopping. Honest!

Although I have an extra stash of maniacal laughter in here with me, and I might be able to bribe my way to freedom with it. Hmmm . . .

Well, if a person did happen to be imprisoned by someone who happened to be missing maniacal laughter, then providing that maniacal laughter might indeed be a way of negotiating freedom.

Hypothetically speaking, of course.

Words words words Words words words Words words words Words words words Words words words Words words words Words words words Words words words Words words words Words words words Words words words Words words words Words words words Words words words Words words words.

Also, maniacal laughter.

I'm very happy with myself today. Possibly slightly smug.

Congratulations - I'll use my slightly smug-looking Master icon to celebrate. ;D

Wow, look at all those words! Some of them are even maniacal. And capitalized!

Way to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You deserve to be sightly smug.

Although you do not deserve maniacal laughter. *is petulant*

1,962 words so far this evening. It was something I'd already written, and I was only planning originally to tweak it here and there but I basically ended up writing it all again, but different. You know how it is.

[dbskyler.livejournal.com]

It's annoying when that happens, but usually the outcome is very good, so I've learned to go along with it. Well done with all the writing! Keep it up! In fact, keep very, very busy with it, so you in no way have any time at all to take over the world.

[jjpor.livejournal.com]

It is cramping my world-conquering style a bit, this writing. But thanks. :)

300 words more and the end is near! Though the fic could use a round or two of stern editing after its finished.

[lolmac]

Ah, but you have the Ginsu Knives of Editing, right! Or are those the Maniacal Ginsu Knives of Maniacal Editing?

[a-q.livejournal.com]

Maniacal Knives sounds a lot like a horror story! :D
And maniacal edit might do more harm than good...Maniacal writing, good, maniacal edit, bad!

[dbskyler.livejournal.com]

Hooray! *maniacal confetti* Finished but unedited fic is still finished fic! And all fic needs editing. In fact, unedited fic is very scary indeed. It bites.

[juliet316]

Sadly, no manical words thus far, but a manical icon or two were made.

[lolmac]

That is definitely a maniacal icon.

[juliet316]

Thank you. :-D

Hey, it's everything_rush! No need to feel that icons are second-rate during this round!! :D Besides, maniacal icons are awesome.

Still Not Killing Innocents

I have a half hour between, 'gosh yes I am working on a Saturday' and dinner and social obligations to bust out some words.

Here we go.

Re: Still Not Killing Innocents

[dbskyler.livejournal.com]

Kill those innocents who are getting in the way of the fic being finished! DIE, INNOCENTS, DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Or not. Ahem. It is, after all, your fic. I'm just trying to do some maniacal cheerleading here.

Re: Still Not Killing Innocents

Fantastically maniacal cheerleading!

[a-q.livejournal.com]

Yeah, too tired to come up with the perfect last line - I better sleep on it and return to writing with fresh ideas. Good (maniacal) writing everyone!

[dbskyler.livejournal.com]

Sounds like a good plan. Sleeping on things definitely helps -- it helps me a lot, at least. Hope you get some good maniacal rest!

I was hijacked to help my husband with a project but I've written a very much needed 513 words on my WIP, and closed up a gaping hole in the story.

Now I must work on dinner a bit and rummage through my tile stacks and see what I've got that could work for redoing the shower.

Closing up a story gap on a WIP is like a triple word score! So you should give yourself credit for over 1500 words at least. *g*

Enjoy your maniacal dinner, and good luck with the maniacal shower repair!
