I've now managed 14 consecutive days of website updates - two header edits and one 'new' story coded and uploaded every day. It's only about 15-20 minutes of coding and is easy to do most mornings while I'm otherwise wasting time before work.

Edited and posted two more chapters of the 'edited and expanded' version of my polybb fic.

Wrote and posted a Yellow fic owed from, oh, 2008 or so.

Wrote (still in a notebook) a Fafner fic, need to type it up.

That does sounds like you've had a good week with solid progress made on many fronts. Long may it continue for you.

Thank you. I'm really proud of the push on coding. I just basically got behind with my personal archive back in, oh, 2006 or so and then just... ignored it as if the problem would somehow go away. ^^;; So getting properly caught up = yay! (Though it might take all year, it'll be worth it.)

After my fandom_stocking surge, I took most of last week off from any real writing. Once the reveal happened, I posted the three gift fics I had finished to my usual places. (Only to meet a disappointing lack of feedback/reviews for them, as I've seen before with my Fandom Stocking fics. Bad time of year for fic posting?)

Then, starting on Sunday, I launched a new attack on one of my most prominent chaptered WIPs... and promptly surpassed my word-count goal for the entire week in two days. Said goal has accordingly been doubled. I'm happy to be getting back into the flow of this particular story, especially now that I've pushed it to the point where Major Things will be happening again.

And all while still incessantly sniffling and throat-clearing from stubborn remains of cold symptoms. Blargh.

Hope you get over the cold quickly. Well done on the good progress and hopefully you'll get some feedback soon.

Thanks! The sinus issues are long past being a functional hindrance to me, but they're just annoying and stubborn. It gets a little better every day, though.

Good luck to yourself too! :)

I've barely managed to sit down with any writing energy at all this week - I think I only managed one good stint. Thankfully the one I did manage was a good one! It resulted in me writing a short fic that was over 3,000 words and filled a prompt on one of my avengers_tables. I also got it up and posted, so that's progress of a sort. Still haven't had the time/energy/focus to really make headway on the big ones that I want to get finished, so I'm counting small steps as significant!

I think that sounds like good progress. \o/ I know you'll get to the big ones when you're ready and they're ready to be worked on.
