BTF/NYR fic

avon May 03, 2017 22:11

I wrote this as a part of the btfchallenge. It is also a yuletide nyr fic. It is based on a short film that is 100% worth the 15 minutes it takes to watch it. This is a hard sci fi story. No magic. No technoloigy indistinguishable from magic. Just a good, old fashioned Orion Drive.

Struggling

avon Feb 06, 2017 20:36

I am having a tough time with writing these days. I am nearly 6K behind for being on pace for my year goal. But I wrote some today, so that is good. I just want to finish the first draft of Spero.

Does anyone else wake up and check the news each morning, wondering if we got into a war or if something else horrid happened over night?

Yuletide 2016

It was a good yuletide!

I got a story about Syndey from the Pretender - my favorite grey hat from that world of one shining bright light, and a whole lot of dark.

2016 writing round up

avon Dec 31, 2016 22:55

2016 was a different sort of writing year for me. I posted just 10 fanfics this year for a total of 36K of words, but I wrote nearly 200k - which is a lot for me. Most of it was in original works - the novel project I am working on and a variety of short stories that I have submitted various places (and had rejected - oh well).

NaNo update - 30K!!!!!!

avon Nov 18, 2016 20:59

When I started NaNo - I thought a goal of 1K a day was pretty ambitous (considering up until that point, thanks to getyourwordsout I had been averaging about 400 words a day). However, I am exactly on pace to win NaNo - averaging 1.6-1.7 words a day so far this month ( Read more... )

Nano update - 40% done!

avon Nov 12, 2016 20:45

I hit 20K today! At this point, this story officially has become the longest thing

I have written. Unlike my last attempt at a longer story, where I had to pretty much drag every single word from my head with a fish hook, this story is going well. In fact, I am 20K in, and the actual story is just about to begin, in term
