Writing - July 2023

[smallhobbit]

This was my best month wordwise this year - 15,950 bringing my total for the year to 83,625 and keeping me on track for 135K for the whole year.  However, I won't count my words until they are written!

By far the major reason, over half the total, was the final July Writing Prompts over at watsons_woes  As I have for the last few years, I chose a theme for the month which this year led to A Production Diary which sees the Ferret & Co preparing for their Hallowe'en performance of Macbeth.  Needless to say, the plot does veer slightly from the one Shakespeare originally wrote.

My words were also boosted by a friend hosting Comment Fic over on LiveJournal, with a number of prompts specifically designed for me, so thank you nagi_schwarz and brumeier 

I also completed Death at the Chelsea Flower Show for whatif_au Radio AU.  This is an Inspector Durin Mystery in the fashion of the old style radio mystery drama serials which I enjoy listening to.

allbingo had my favourite Bingo card: Winterfest in July, so I wrote some very indulgent fluff for Lucas and Adam (a Spooks AU) based on a bingo card for decorations: Looking Ahead

And lastly, I have created the August bingo fest for allbingo based on Sir Matthew Bourne's New Adventures productions.  Details here

Good work! That Production Diary in particular sounds promising! I've bookmarked it for later reading. :)
