In which I flail and panic about BigBang
I've already flailed in a really long-winded fashion at the lovely, patient, understanding folks who are doing BigBang with me, so this is more of a generalized, short-version flail.
1- I changed my mind about what I was going to write a couple of weeks ago. God.
2- I am PANICKING because the deadline is in five weeks and I've only got about 2,700 words written and OH GOD.
3- I think my new story might be too big to write. *headdesk*
Did I mention OHGODOHGODOHGOD. /o\
So since I have a decent amount of time to myself today, I am giving myself a wordcount goal for the end of the day of 5,000 words, so that I can at the very least feel as though I'm not falling into a black pit of writing-induced despair. There's a reason I usually only write things that are under 6,000 words. Gah!
Since wordcount meters have seen me through NaNoWriMo in the past, I figure I'll use one for this too, at least at the beginning. Once I have sufficient momentum going, the story itself should be enough to get me to the end.
2763 / 20000 words. 14% done!
I refuse to despair until April 30th.

I'm trying to write BigBang and the Muse is all "Hey, you know what would be awesome? If you wrote a tag to 5.03!" and "Ooh, I just thought of something cool for that sequel to 'Ex Crucio' you wanted to write. How about it?"
Seriously, what the hell?
