Also is that for a prompt, because where do I find it?? I need that in my life.

It is indeed a prompt/event! You can find it here!

-

Eddie stands outside a familiar door, flowers in his hands, his heart in his sleeve.

A big part of him thinks that he shouldn’t be here, that he should leave well enough alone, Steve’s deserved his peace. But Eddie also knows that his ex yearns as much as he does, that the pining is present for him every single day, as it is for Eddie, who’d had to leave to truly appreciate the love he’d had.

What they’d had.

Music is empty without Steve by his side. The man had kept his heart even after he’d left, even when harsh words meant to hurt had been said on both sides. Eddie had tried to write love songs, failing each and every one.

And then the letters had started coming.

MAKE ME WRITE?

Monthly Word Count Wrap-Up

August 2024

This was a rough month. It's been straight out of the AO3 author's note curse handbook over here. It was just an in the snow, uphill both ways, trek, lol.

I think I might need to just take a step back from participating in so many events, although I love them, and just focus on editing up the final part of All Across the Universe, and then go from there.

That's the one obligation I need to fulfill. I'm so sorry it's later than expected. I didn't want to work on it when my head wasn't in it.

This month, I wrote the least of any month this year so far:

But I still somehow worked on 13 different projects this month, for a total of 22,500 words. My 500 words a day streak is still alive. Barely. You can see on a lot of days, that I just pushed through writing until I hit my 500 words. Often, late at night, and on a new document that if it was nothing, it was nothing. I'll be interested to go back later and see if anything was worth expanding.

The last few days were finally better. I edited some on AATU. I wrote some on a couple different WIPs because I wanted to, not because I had a word count to hit. So, maybe this was just a fluke of a month and I'll be totally fine and back to normal moving forward. Or I'll need to just cut back. Time will tell, I suppose.

Either way, in August I averaged 725.81 words a day.

And the yearly average, sits at 1070.35 words per day.

What I Posted This Month:

Never Not Mine (For Steddie Angsty August, E, 3240 Words)

Just the Facts (For A Stranger Summer Week #14, T, 813 Words)

Different Lessons (For Steddie Angsty August, T, 3300 Words)

Tip Your Driver (For A Stranger Summer Week #15, T, 4115 Words)

I'm An Island, But You're An Ocean (For Steddie Angsty August, T, 2191 Words)

Firing on All Cylinders (For A Stranger Summer Week #16, T, 3000 Words)

Clean Sheets Night (For Steddie Angsty August, T, 1374 Words)

Of All the Gin Joints (For A Stranger Summer Week #17, T, 1938 Words)

Heat Waves (For Steddie Song Fics, T, 1500 Words)

Embarrassing For You (Late Entry For Steddie Micro, T, 437 Words)

She Still Wants More (For A Stranger Summer Week #18, T, 448 Words)
