primeidealI am working on a long-form original writing project. It's one of those "very specifically crafted to a certain outlet, if it doesn't get selected for publication there, it's not really the kind of thing that could be pulled and submitted elsewhere." The outlet's premise seems perfect for me, but, who knows, there are probably lots of other people saying the same thing. So I don't want to go into specifics because I don't want to jinx anything.
As of this writing, I have started 1/4 of the sections that will comprise the overall project. (Obviously, "started" =/= "finished," there are some that still need a lot of work, and others that may turn out to be unsuitable and that I'd have to replace. So this is just an estimate.)
It's one of those...if I have an enormous chunk of time available to me I just procrastinate and play "Slay the Spire" all day, if I tell myself "okay this is a school night, I just need to knock out one section, that's enough for today," it's more feasible that I might get something done. The holiday weekend is coming up and I'll just be chilling with my extended family, again, I hope this leaves time to write at least a few more sections, but no promises.
In the meantime because there is so much to do for that, and so much room to procrastinate, I have not written a word for Yuletide. Canon review for my assignment was relatively speedy, so again, if I don't overextend myself and get too overwhelmed to start, I feel like the assignment should not be tedious. (I'd love to keep up my prolific-treater streak.) But again, it's just like...gotta actually buckle down and do it.
IDK, wish me luck. One step at a time.
