Twice Fortnightly – Giving it 150%!

Guys! I won NaNo! Feast your eyes on these sweet final stats:75k, can you believe it? I almost can’t. It makes sense because I hit 50k on the 20th, 2/3 of the way through. But at the same time… I’ve never totaled more than, say, 52-53k during NaNo before so basically I feel like Superwoman. As for the draft, it’s Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – Giving it 150%!

Twice Fortnightly – Early Win!

That’s right, guys! On Friday the 20th, I won NaNo! Well, I won the 50k bit anyway, not the “finish your draft” bit, got a bit of a ways to go with that. That is a super-yay in my view, because this is (as far as I can recall) the only time that I’ve won NaNo before the last day Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – Early Win!

Twice Fortnightly – Way Ahead, For Once!

Guys, I am having the best NaNo ever! Today is day 16, and I am a 37.5k. That is, 3/4ths to 50k, and 10k over par! I’ve had 3 4k days so far! Wooh! I feel awesome. I mean, check out these stats: I could cruise through the rest of the month if I wanted to. Buuuut I don’t! There’s plenty Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – Way Ahead, For Once!

Twice Fortnightly – Sprinting Along

This past week’s been an odd one. I’ve forgone my usual productivity schedule on account of NaNo. The main reason for that is that I seem to be quite heavily dependent on Twitter word sprints to get things done (as I’m having trouble focusing) and as such it makes more sense for me to be writing when there’s sprints happening Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – Sprinting Along

Twice Fortnightly – Bye Blog Ahead, Hello NaNo!

That’s right, NaNo is here! Day 3, in fact. How did that happen? Quick, belated blog post today. Last week I: Prepped, successfully for NaNo! Started NaNo!

Twice Fortnightly – Post Untitled

Yeah, no, no titles coming to me tonight. I’ve written like 5 blog posts today for the Blog Ahead challenge, that might be why. Just gonna get straight to it. This week I have: Finished working on Erziyye’s currents! Yay! Will be posting about them on Wednesday. Done a good bit of NaNo prep in terms of worldbuilding (not quite Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – Post Untitled

Worldbuilding Wednesday – And now for something completely different.

If you don’t know what the title refers to, you need to watch more Monty Python. Anyway, today we are indeed doing something completely different. I wanted to show you my ocean currents but they aren’t totally done and the idea of putting up a map with things missing irks me so I’ll hold off till next week. Instead, I’m Continue reading Worldbuilding Wednesday – And now for something completely different.

Twice Fortnightly – Let There Be Paperbacks!

That’s right, they’re here!! Behold! Aren’t they pretty? Potato-quality photo aside, I’m really happy with the quality! The books arriving was just one aspect to a really good week. I had some good personal news, got some great progress with some life my projects and enjoyed quality time with my boyfriend, my parents and my bestie and her (hilarious) 18 Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – Let There Be Paperbacks!

Twice Fortnightly – Back Into the Groove….Again!

I thought I was back in the groove already, but then last week I got a cold and a bit of a low-bat situation, mentally. So I slowed my pace and had a very leisurely week. I still got a few overdue things off of my to-do list, but kept it very low-key. What I did do was: Poke my map Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – Back Into the Groove….Again!

Flash Fiction Friday – Almost not flash

Today I’m in Gothenburg, which means I’m away from my trusty Dixit cards so I won’t be doing an image prompt. Actually, I won’t be doing a prompt at all. My head is full of magic. I am currently reading Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone in Arabic (a marvelous experience I will eventually blog about) and this has brought Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – Almost not flash
