New edition of GSD

[ratherastory]

Yes, I am doing this again. Just wrote 10k on the Big Bang That Would Not Die™ yesterday, and I'm so close to actually finishing this stupid thing I can taste it. It's getting finished today, come hell or high water.

This is really pretty shameful. My poor artist has had to make do with a shitty incomplete fic for far too long, and I haven't had a word of complaint, which makes her a saint. I am never, ever doing this again. Never writing a long RPS and definitely never screwing around like this with a Big Bang. If I don't have a draft I am entirely satisfied with the day before deadline, I'm dropping the fuck out.

For those of you who are curious the BBTWND now stands at a little over 91k.


And once that's done I still have ten thousand other projects that need to be de-neglected. Most of them due really soon. Shoot me.

*soldiers on*

I would dance a jig for you, but it would just be embarrassing on my behalf and painful on yours.
But if it cheers you up, I read newspapertaxis' comment as "whips out PORN" as opposed to pom-poms.
Silly brain.
Chin up chuck, you're nearly there!

LOL

Thanks!

And the number of times my brain misreads things in that way... well, let's just say I sympathize. Fandom has broken us forever.

*dies laughing*

Don't feel bad.

The minute I posted my own comment, I read "whips out PORN" too. *facepalms*

I'm with Rather.... Fandom has broken us all....

Wow, that is an amazing amount. I can't wait to read it!

[ratherastory.livejournal.com]

Guh. If I can muster the brainpower to finish it today, you might. :P

I hope it's halfway decent, given how much trouble it's given me over the past few months.

You give me such an inferiority complex with your amazing productivity! Have you completely renounced sleep?

Don't. I am currently making myself nuts. It's not a fun place to be. ;)


I post July 11th, for the record.

*cheers you on*

Seriously, 91k is respectable work. That's manuscript-length. Not many can do that. I'm proud of you.

[ratherastory.livejournal.com]

A short manuscript, but yes. I am never, ever writing manuscript-length RPS ever again. It's a nightmare.

Thank you for the cheerleading! It's much appreciated. :)

You do this because it's fun. I support you making decisions that keep things fun, so that you don't burn out!

[ratherastory.livejournal.com]

Yes, fun. I remember that. Possibly when this Big Bang is finished I'll go back to the fun part of this. This Big Bang is making me lose my mind.
