Writing - September 2022
Sep. 26th, 2022 07:55 pmAgain I've written about 7K words during the month, bringing my total for the year so far to 81.5K, so current progress should bring me in to 100K words. Not surprising, I'm really not particularly inspired. I'm not watching much at the moment, or anything really, although I'm happy listening to audiobooks and programmes on BBC Sounds, as well as still reading a reasonably wide selection of books. I don't want to stop writing altogether - there are some things which I still enjoy - but the days when I considered it a loss when I hadn't written anything on a day are well and truly past.
My preference is definitely for crack and writing things which make me smile at the moment. My
fan_flashworks entry for 'Clear' was a modern day take on Macbeth's three wishes: When Shall We Three Meet Again
My main pre-occupation has been writing a daily entry for
no_true_pair for 28 days Take Eight Characters. I did greatly enjoy including the Ferret as one of the eight characters, my own personal favourite being when he teaches Lucas North to cheat at dominoes.
I'm currently working on
trickortreat exchange and
spook_me which I should finish early next month and will be posted at the end of the month.

I will be going back and reading more of your 8 Characters. Interesting exercise!

Date: 2022-09-27 07:12 pm (UTC)The 8 Characters was a fun exercise. Having nominated Tigger Holmes and the Ferret as two of my characters, I knew some of the days would be pure crack. I made of point of working through the list rather than just choosing the prompts I liked as it gave a wider feel - and also led to some interesting partnerships which worked surprisingly well.
