deemoyzaAnother 10k week, thanks to my last-minute scramble to finish my Chocolate Box fic. It is finished, just in need of an editing pass, and perhaps a better title if I can think of one before Saturday night.
- The Chocolate Box fic came out to 5.3k words. I enjoyed writing it, and especially enjoyed revisiting a piece of media I haven't consumed in a few years. I just hope I got the characters' voices right. I think I did.
- I wrote a little fic for the Final Fantasy Kiss Battle that's going on. Not my usual pairing for FF8, but it actually felt really right. :)
- I'm counting my contributions to the Three-Sentence Ficathon, though they technically were written last week, because their impact on my weekly total was minimal, less than 500 words combined.
- I also desperately wanted to write a Chocolate Box treat for a couple of original prompts, and I got 3k words into one when I realized it just wasn't working, and I shouldn't push myself too hard. I can't get either of them done by reveals, but maybe I can revise and complete them later and just gift them out of the blue. They really are intriguing prompts!
- (Wow, bullet points really help me organize my thoughts. I have no idea why I've done the wall of text up until now.)
To the stats!
Total words written this week: 10,998
Original fiction: 3,396
Fanfiction: 7,602
Percentage breakdown: Fanfiction - 69%, Original fiction - 31%

Date: 2021-02-13 10:13 am (UTC)I wanted to do a treat for the Chocolate Box exchange but I had to hold myself back since I am signing up for a different exchange.
Also I wish I knew this FF kiss battle existed. I'm clicking on it and finding out more about it. I'm gonna read yours because I absolutely LOVE Quistis/Rinoa, so I'm a fan by default~
I'm glad that you're making huge strides in your writing too! This is definitely nice!
