Hi! I was curious so I wanted to ask. How much do you typically write per day/week?

this is actually advice from the late great terry pratchett, iirc, where i give myself a fairly low daily writing quota - i think pratchett used 400 words but i do 500 because it's an easier number to keep track of in a wordcount that's constantly growing

but, VERY OFTEN, i exceed that. i don't keep track of hours but if i'm not struggling on a scene i very easily write 1k per story a day (and because i'm on inutile and four eyes, it ends up about 2k)

and this might be the anxiety talking but it's very 'unlucky' to me to have a fic's wordcount in my drafts not be above 30 words of a number divisible by 500. so right now the act finale of inutile is at 6024. the next four eyes chapter is at 11005. good numbers. if i finish writing and i'm at some odd number like 2411 you will not BELIEVE how much motivation that is For Me to write at least 89 more words to make it as close to 2500 as possible. and sometimes that just ends up un-sticking me out of a scene that i'm having trouble with and then, oops! i'm writing 500 words again

(this is why nanowrimo used to give me so much trouble. the goal was always like 1200 words/day or something similar and that's just not a good number. i'd always be like 200 words behind because original fiction takes me longer to do and i couldn't get up to 1500 consistently... )

i haven't been able to write a lot this week because of the holidays and having a teenager in the house for half a week (taking care of them on their fall break) so i miiiight actually end up skipping an update on both the fics one week or another this month to keep things back on track but that's fine. free fanfiction and all, low stakes

anyway this is all not even taking to account the amount of gamedev i do in a day, and - [i'm hooked offstage before i can keep talking]

I've worked remotely since becoming an attorney, and I want to remain remote. But my coworker and I shared a co-working space today and I can't say I didn't enjoy the exasperated, "I already told him not to do that; your turn," and, "Will you read this agreement we drafted and confirm what I think it says because I hate how it's drafted," commiseration that came with getting to think out loud at each other.

Mostly, I cherish how we ended an hour-long client call by dropping our heads on the desk and emitting gutteral exhales at the exact same time.

you may think that this paragraph means that if you want to travel towards southport, you can get a rail replacement bus at moorfields. you would be wrong. in fact you have to get off at moorfields, walk for ten minutes to get out of the station, ask a guard where the rail replacement buses will be, he'll tell you that there are no rail replacement buses here, you'll have to walk through the station, wait for another train, get on that and go to the next station.

If a bitch had more time in their day after their flipping job they would have more than only 4 pattern pieces cut out by now 🙄

We'll get there in the end but ugh.
