Write Every Day: 17 November 02019
Nov. 17th, 2019 10:25 pmGreetings! This is the Write Every Day Check-In Post for 17 November 02019.
Convention was great today, as well. Had a lot of good panels and talks and the stuff that comes with being among people with similar interests. Got back a little earlier than yesterday, but then spent a few hours coming to my personal conclusion that Miraculous Ladybug runs on the rules of "if it works to make an episode's plot cohere, do it, and don't worry whether it violates or contradicts something done in a previous episode." Which is good if your ultimate goal is to have the episodes viewable in just about any order at all, with some exceptions. Because certain episodes fail to make any sense in a larger narrative, and characterizations are such that they seem to be actively working against their previous selves. (Or reverting to those previous selves in defiance of what they've been doing this season.) More fodder for fix-its, I suppose.
Writing-wise, I was doing a lot of reading and commenting, thanks to archives being open and wanting to get through them, but I still put together some more words for the backburnered project while I was signal-deprived, so words actually written (as such) as well as the long discussion about why many things don't make as much sense as we want them to.
Here's the tally so far:
( Rally-ho! )
