lady_kareliaI've written about 1k words today. Not a lot, but I'd a) like to think I'm not done yet for the day, and b) like to remind myself that it's about 1k more than yesterday.
No, not fanfic, hate to burst your bubble if you're one of the twenty who follow WM. I'd say fandom can kiss my arse and would have said exactly that over the last couple of days, but then something happened, something highly positive, in which something I had been very much afraid of every time it crossed my mind was disproved to me, not merely by words, but with swift action. Yes, thank you, I'm perfectly aware of what a bitter, old hag I can be at times, but the point is, I'm not, at least not now, and this bubbling feeling of happiness keeps welling up inside of me, and I don't think about what this nasty RL might bring tomorrow; I'm simply enjoying that happiness for now.
Of course, my lovely![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
little_beloved contributed not insignificantly to my current state of happiness by emailing me to let me know—pulls up email to quote verbatim—what a goddamn genius I am. *nods* Look forward to future chapters of Denial to find out. If you haven't read it yet, what are you waiting for? It is one of the bestest WIPs around. This and Second Life by lariope, I can never decide which one is better, but that's okay. They're very different from each other, and to me, they're equally enjoyable. And both are updated regularly.
This past month, by the way, has been wonderful in terms of growth for The Petulant Poetess. Many new authors, top reviewers have taken review numbers to a new height, and loads of new members! Oh, and if you haven't read all the Post DH Prompt Challenges, there are loads of good stories, and many of them complete! Voting will start soon, but I'll post about that, too.
Haven't done much knitting lately, haven't even started on the second Reiki sock. Only did a couple of squares with left-over sock yarn for a patchwork blanket. But that's a long-term project, and the squares are pretty quickly knitted, so it's fun. Plus, I can do it while watching youtube, lol.

We are growing so much, aren't we? Whoot! ~need to find others to staff with us and help out~ LOL
I look forward to more of your original. ~nod~ I like it very much.
Congrats on your promotion. I shall tell the world!

I was thinking this morning, the queue is suspiciously quiet. I wonder if it's the quiet before the storm...
I did some revision to the chapter, following your advice. I have a feeling it reads smoother now. Also added a whole chunk from Ch 2 to Ch 1 so it now ends with her leaving. *nods* I'm happier with it now. Will send later.
