luzula | Write Every Day: Day 22

Got back beta comments on the Yuletide treat and did some editing! How about you?

Oh, and also: I have two gift reveal emails from AO3?!? I don't dare to open them in case it's a glitch and it's given me Yuletide gifts early? I did see the other day that I had two unrevealed gifts which I assumed were for Yuletide.

I checked in for 21st yesterday (on the day 20 post). :-)

22nd: 724 words on my gift fic. Still haven't created the conditions where the prompt can kick in...

From:

luzula

Oops! Got it.

That's a good word count though, even if you haven't got there yet. : )

From:

regshoe

*checks your gifts page*

You have no recent revealed gifts that I can see—the Yuletide ones are still unrevealed. So I would guess it is a bug and you should leave those emails unread, though it's a very strange one—I've not got an email, nor have I heard anyone else say they have. Mysterious!

ETA my check-in! Day 22: Editing and polishing of treat #1.

Edited Date: 2023-12-22 05:33 pm (UTC)

From:

luzula

It's very strange: now I've got two more gift reveal emails from AO3! I guess after the actual reveals I should report them to AO3...

ETA: And yes, obviously I'm leaving them unread!

Edited Date: 2023-12-22 08:15 pm (UTC)

From:

luzula

Also, good work on the treat. : )

From:

ysilme

This clearly isn't my time right now. On top of everything else I just had two days of moderate migraine due to the crazy weather changes and storm. Such fun. Not.
Still got things written as I had to;
Day 20: 1,5k, mostly writing manuals for my voluntary job (I finally got one or two future colleagues for the job, but now have to fully train them in using our CMS and CMSes in general ;o) ), and one review.
Day 21: 517 words for the Nostalgia project.

From:

luzula

Oh, I'm sorry about the migraine! : (( I do hope it passes soon. Under the circumstances, that is some heroic writing.

From:

badly_knitted

Yay for editing!

Dec 22nd - 931 words, 3 triple drabbles and the final edits on the Christmas smut fic, which is now posted! Yay!

From:

luzula

Thanks! Congratulations on posting. \o/

From:

badly_knitted

Thank you! That's one fic from my massive backlog set free on the internet!

From:

chestnut_pod

Day 22: finally wrote up this season's books of DW interest! I am counting that as my writing for the day.

From:

luzula

And much appreciated writing, too! : )

From:

sanguinity

How weird that you're getting notification emails! But I haven't gotten any, so I don't know why it's just you.

Dec 22: Travel day, but wrote words before I started packing.

From:

luzula

Very strange! I've gotten two more now, definitely leaving them untouched. Good for you getting the writing in before the traveling.

From:

sanguinity

Huh! I'm like regshoe; I've received none. I wonder what the glitch is that's affecting you, and if it's worth reporting it to AO3.

From:

luzula

Yes, I'll be reporting them! But not until after reveals, when I can open them and see what's actually in them.

From:

sanguinity

Probably should wait until after author reveals, too, just in case they spoil the authorship as well as the work itself? But yes, very strange!

From:

luzula

Oh, good point, thanks!

From:

yhlee

Yay for edits!

Day 22: alibi paragraph so far, but I write during the evenings so I'm hoping to make 1,000 words by tonight. (I made 1,000 words yesterday too, with like half an hour until midnight lolsob.) Linguistics sci-fantasy, although I'm about 2/3 through the draft and it's due in early June 2024, so barring ATTACK VELOCIRAPTORS I'm in great shape. :)

From:

yhlee

Okay, made it to 1,000 words on linguistics sci fantasy + 500 words on "book synopsis for trad pub, how do" - I am baffled that people want yet another opinion on the latter because this is a very well-worn topic but okay, why not, also I am bored and what I know isn't complicated to impart. That said, I will probably next instead write random essays on something more fun like "melody, how do" or "harmony, how do" or "orchestration, how do." XD

From:

luzula

Well, I hope you are spared the attack velociraptors, and good work with the 1,000 words! I do like making harmonies, but it's mostly something I do when I sing with my sister, without much regard for theory.

From:

sylvanwitch

Oooh! Surprise gifts! How exciting! :-)

On Day 22, I realized I had a minor plot error in the current chapter, so I reworked the last few days' writing, and after deletions and additions, I had 217 more words than when I began the work.

From:

luzula

Well, I already know I have two exciting Yuletide gifts, but I don't want them revealed early! Well done reworking your plot. : )

From:

cornerofmadness

AO3 did have a melt down today so anything is possible.

I edited all day today

From:

luzula

Oh, did it? Well, I suppose I'll report it as a possible bug. Meanwhile, good work editing!

From:

cornerofmadness

Yeah their servers went down

From:

china_shop

23rd: alibi sentence. :-)

From:

luzula

Good job! : )

From:

yasaman

Day 22: 1,490 words on one WIP, and 263 on the other tonight!

From:

luzula

Steadily productive as always! : )

From:

lferion

22 December -- Story posting for the Highlander exchange has begun: wrote up the first link post, and figured out what tomorrow's will be. Also got another line or two on yesterday's poems and did some thinking about a possible Yuletide treat.

From:

luzula

*cheers you on*
