Writing - March 2024

[smallhobbit]

I've written 10K words this month, so I'm at 30K for three months and therefore on target, which is pleasing.

The story I mentioned starting for ushobwri WiP month has progressed and I'm hoping, if all characters co-operate to have finished this next month, although there will probably be a sequel.  It's in one of my Spooks (MI5) 'verses and features Pamela, Adam's mother-in-law.  Whose Life?

no_true_pair is currently running a mini challenge, with only four characters, which I'm using to write a story.  All short chapters are written but are being revealed on a day-by-day basis.  BBC Sherlock, although more minor characters: Working Behind The Scenes

I've also joined lands_of_magic and written a series of 10 drabbles for their drabble challenge, based on the Bourne version of Swan Lake.  I'll be using some of them for later Fandom 50 entries.  I'm also writing for two more of their challenges, but nothing is completed yet.

Thank you very much!

That is an amazing amount of words :D

Thank you very much - I've been writing something most days this month, which is why I've reached that total.

Congrats on the word count! I have done lands of magic in the past and enjoyed it. I didn't realize that BBC Sherlock series was for no true pair, but now it makes more sense! [not that the fic doesn't make sense but the motivation to write it..]

Thank you. I've never tried something like Lands of Magic - I'll see how it goes - with a number of comms dropping out I was finding less inspiration for writing so thought it might be good. I just need to choose only what I like.

I like connecting what I write for bingos etc so I decided to give myself the challenge of taking four characters and making a sort of story for them. And then with 8 characters I can let my imagination run riot!

Wow, you're doing great this year! That's really impressive.

I've not been able to write much of anything this month, unfortunately. I really thought I could get some things done during this past week, but I ended up busier (and subsequently more tired) than I expected.

Thank you very much! It's definitely helped picking up a new challenge comm to give me the inspiration I need. My writing depends on how busy my day is and whether the brain power is being used elsewhere.
