I've hit a wall but mostly because I need to eat and want opinions before my next fic, so it isn't completely nonsensical.

But the 'cast my fic' poll, at my journal for an upcoming big bang is keeping me somewhat motivated.

I hope everyone else is doing well!

Oooh, I love the "cast my fic" poll! Unfortunately I don't know the fandom, but here, have some generic encouragement! *sends encouragement*

[dbskyler.livejournal.com]

Duh, just realized you listed characters from a whole bunch of different fandoms, one reason I didn't recognize names when I scanned down, okay, I'm not completely awake yet . . .

i'm up to 896 words, going really quickly here at the start, but i expect i won't keep up this pace for long :) plus my daughter will wake up soon and then there will be much less writing for a while.

yay for frenetically paced writing!

[juliet42.livejournal.com]

Yay! That was pretty much my first hour pace. It's since slowed. But it will pick back up. Soon.

um, yeah, once the mommy hat goes on, it's going to be pretty stalled until she naps or i can con her into watching a DVD...

IT WILL PICK BACK UP. i'm sure of it!

I'm officially re-joining this hour after two hours last night that resulted in 33 words (LOL) -- but they're the first 33 words I've written on this fic in months, so that's progress! For new people who don't want to go back to prior posts, I'm working on a Doctor Who / SJA crossover WIP that I ran out of steam on but am now determined to pick back up and continue. For this hour my main goal is to eat breakfast and re-watch a little SJA to get back into the character voices, so I probably won't get much writing done.

[dragonessa24.livejournal.com]

Woot, 33 words! Glad to have you back. :)

[juliet42.livejournal.com]

Any writing is better than nothing! Good luck with character voices.

[acinogan.livejournal.com]

research is important, too :)

and sometimes the hardest part about starting a stalled fic is those first few words, so you've gotten through that bit, at least!

[dragonessa24.livejournal.com]

Got a couple more lines done, but now household duties such as cooking lunch and washing dishes are calling, so I will probably not write much this hour. Also I'm having a love-hate relationship with my fic and right now think it's just terribly wordy and boring. :/

[acinogan.livejournal.com]

arrgh, the household!

good luck falling in love with your fic again :)

[dragonessa24.livejournal.com]

Thanks, I'm trying. :)

[acinogan.livejournal.com]

okay, so my child is awake and i guess i should feed her and, i don't know, pay attention to her or something. i will be back later this afternoon if/when she takes a nap :)

good luck to everyone else!
