Wednesday Words  
Daaang! I haven't had a 6k week since last September, so I am feeling this! I'm very much a slow and steady writer, which is why I liked to outline early and then diligently chip away at my commitments, and so far things are going well. My primary goal/focus for the next 6 months is going to be my big bang fic, and if I can maintain this momentum I should be in really good shape. Plus I have some smaller projects that I'll continue to work on throughout, as it's nice to give myself a bit of a break so I don't burn myself out by working only on my one idea.

Weekly Word Count (1/13- 1/19) = 6,247

What I Worked On:
  • [tumblr.com profile] harrydracobang: wrote 2 scenes + started a third.
  • [community profile] hp_goldenage: went through initial edits & sent to beta!
  • Dream!Fic: tinkered some more with the outline.
  • [tumblr.com profile] hpdarkartsMy Bloody Valentine/[tumblr.com profile] hpfemslash-minifest January/February: outlined & drafted! When the darkart's fest was announced this past week I knew I wanted to participate, and I figured combining it with the femslash prompts so I could knock out two fests with one fic would be perfect.

Next Week's Goals Other Fannish Activities!

Awesome word count! Slow and steady is definitely the path of least stress.

I like the idea of taking a fandom-free day.

Thanks, and agreed!

I've been doing the fandom-free day every week so far this year and it's been really great!

That's an amazing wordcount! Plus so much betaing too! I'm so glad your big bang is going well.

Thanks! Luckily I'm just doing a more proofing-type beta otherwise I doubt I'd be able to get through so much + keep my writing pace!
