Write Every Day: 10 November 02019

[silveradept]

Greetings! This is the Write Every Day Check-In Post for 10 November 02019.

Today, I accomplished things in other than writing, a practice I usually refer to as "backburnering", because while I have a great few opening lines for this thing I want to work on, I still haven't yet figured out the gist of the story as things are going along. Some of the details will revel themselves to me over time, but it's sometimes nice to have a general idea of the place you want to go when you let the characters loose to play. I spent my time effectively and well, by which I mean I collected several achievements on a game that I'm not really sure I'll ever be able to do quickly enough to collect the speedrun achievement on it. Because a single successful sequence of it can take an hour or two if you stop and think about things as you go along and engage in the tactical necessities for it. Ah, well. Still, useful progress today on that.

Also spent time clearing out some tabs, and did some shopping, and also, after have realized that a fic I wrote predicted something that happened in the canon about a half-season later than when I had set the fic. And the pairing hasn't happened yet, but still, it's kind of weird to find out you have guessed correctly about a future canonical event entirely by accident.

Today is also the tenth day of November, so for the NaNo folk, they're hoping to be a third-way through the novel they intend to write, with a target just shy of 17k. I have written longer fic than that this year, but we're soon going to be getting into "longer than my longest fic" territory, even if we won't be getting into "longer than my longest series" until we're almost done with this month.
