Hahaha oh god, sure, we'll pretend that I actually followed through with trying more long-form blogging.

Instead, here's a NaNoWriMo wrap-up summary, because I edged past the 50,000 words mark a couple of days ago, even if it was spread out over... a lot of projects.

50,003 words total between November 1st and November 28th.

22603 words on assorted Rosemary/Hilbert projects (several of which have a side of Minlace):

  • 375 on assorted small snippets of larger projects.
  • 777 on The Way They Lived, aka the "Hilbert accidentally travels back in time to the day he joins Goddard, decides to make sure no one dies at Wolf 359, realizes LITERALLY EVERYONE he worked with there is currently under the age of 14" fic.
  • 1436 on more Plant Monster porn, yes, I know, I have no excuses, Blessie wants to get Rosemary knocked up, yes she's like 80, Blessie doesn't understand menopause.
  •  8700 on Tartarus (new multi-chapter fic that is kind of Hilbert/Eris and kind of Hilbert/Rosemary and I don’t know why I’m writing it but it’s happening now)
  • 3778 on stuff related to the Star Trek AU (that isn't just Ri and V'Ginn boning)
  • 4933 on the third damn academic AU I’ve come up with for these two, this time with a marriage of convenience for a green card, why am I writing this.
  • 2604 on New Year, New You (some cute Minlace, some Kepler being a dick)

21245 words on assorted GabeNath projects:

  • 5121 on a GabeNath Tam Lin (new multiple-chapter fic)
  • 11671 on The Cure for Neglect (here’s hoping I finish this before I get too many more fics going)
  • 4392 on a smutty dubcon one-shot (that is almost definitely going to sprout more chapters once I finish The Cure for Neglect)
  • 61 on the start of a Mayura memory loss fic

3659 on Yuletide-related fic aka me writing post-canon Wolf 359

2194 on the Trashy Vampire Romance Novel, mostly horrifying depictions of a vampire consuming warm milk products.

255 on a B5 character study snippet of Lyta and G'kar

 

So. Uh. The fic proliferation problem continues, and I really ought to just pick, like, three things and write them until they're done. Unfortunately, I am constitutionally incapable of this! Apparently. But I'm going to try and work on the Missives re-write which ostensibly has no actual active shipping of Rosemary and Hilbert, and I'm going to try and finish off The Cure for Neglect in a way that will hopefully not disappoint the distressingly large number of people who are apparently actively reading that.


Unrelated to fic: I learn what's up with my brainmeats on Tuesday. Hopefully they can offer SOME guidance.

 I've completely forgotten how to do long-form blogging, but here are a couple of State of the Madison lists.

Personal:
  • The ADD has gotten worse, or possibly the burnout.
  • Fortunately, I'm getting an official evaluation done!
  • The evaluative tests I did today were fresh hell.
  • Also I had to send questionnaires to other people, and it turns out that things ping as much larger problems for me than they do for other people observing me, so I'm questioning this entire thing, perhaps I am just lazy.
  • Anyway, I've been... struggling. As a human being. A lot.
  • At least there are roasted squash seeds.

Fandom:
  • Doing Yuletide for the first time ever! I have no clue what I'm doing! I've written 2000-ish words of characters talking and almost no plot so far, but that seems to be roughly in line with what the person I'm writing for wants, so I'm just going with it.
  • Have started listening to Critical Role, or at least season 2 of it. I now have a terrible goblin child and a son who is Extremely Horny For Books.
  • Seriously though I completely underestimated to what extent Caleb is horny for books.
  • Asked Tumblr what fic thing to work on during NaNoWriMo, and they voted GabeNath, so I've been throwing words at my GabeNath accidental pregnancy fic. This resulted in a triple update day last week. I will never again be satisfied with the speed and volume of comments I get directly after posting a thing, I got like fifteen in nine hours and half of them were people screaming. How do people in actually large fandoms and pairings who write popular fic cope and/or remain halfway sane.
  • I'm doing NaNoWriMo. I have written 25,594 words so far. Only half—well, just over half—of those are GabeNath I have promised people because the other 12,000-ish are all Wolf 359 related.
  • Yes, I am still on the Wolf 359 thing.
  • Am I writing a fic where Eris can't decide if she wants to fuck with Hilbert or just fuck him that has also somehow become a Hilbert Backstory Fic? Yes. Is this a very niche subject that only appeals to me? Also yes.
  • Finished the Major Arcana for the Wolf 359 Tarot project finally and have finally accepted that I'm going to be doing a full deck, godDAMNIT.
  • The one positive of getting the Major Arcana done is that I now have a really solid idea of how much to charge for the limited palette style art I've been doing, and have opened commissions in that style.
Possibly I want to do more long-form blogging, in the hope that it'll help make me less... scattered? Not the right word. But something.
